Vitran Team Members,
With the recommendation and approval of our new owners, I am pleased to inform you that we have begun the process of enhancing our starting rates for Vitran drivers across our system. Rate adjustments at several centers have already been implemented. Working in cooperation with the new ownership team, a review of all centers’ starting rates will be completed at a rate of several per week, and adjustments to competitive market rates will be made accordingly. Upon completion of this initiative, a new rate progression system will be established.
Although these adjustments only affect our drivers at this time, soon we will also be addressing a new rate structure for dockworkers and mechanics. We wanted to take this opportunity to inform all team members of some of the positive measures we are beginning to see at Vitran.
Sincerely,
Dean E. Kuska
Vice President, Human Resources & Safety
