The question was to the drivers: What do YOU think would be a worthy reward for you for a year of safe driving.

I think milestone years should be recognized.

100$ cash. What a nice contractor may give you? 20$ gift card. What you will probably get? Nothing

We do a $100 monthly bonus after a year. So would you consider that a good reward?

So after 5 years what would you suggest?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

...and every 5 years thereafter....

Cash works.

Just don't follow it up with a 1099.

Well by cash I mean a taxable bonus. Gotta stay compliant... Talk to your congressman about taxes...

What difference does it make what the driver thinks it's worth ? The contractor in the end will only pay what he thinks it's worth.

%1 of your pay(pretax) for the year. And the option to delete an OLCC from your record.

Got my second safe driver award recently since being at express. For the first one years ago, I was able to choose from a list of prizes.

Not the greatest driver in the world, I'm guessin'?

These days, there aren't many great drivers left judging by the Ground-like behavior of many Express couriers. Nose-in to docks and stops, texting and phone to the ear while driving etc. Really professional.

There is an Express guy who I have to deal with in the morning who fits this description. I usually tolerate his behavior but there was one afternoon he was at a pickup and parked so that no one else could get in there.

I parked to where he could not get out of there (until I was done).

Maybe he was trying to tell you something.

How do you figure that from what I said? Got one after 1 yr of being employed, and got the most recent one now at my 5th yr of being at Express. But YOU obviously wouldn't know how the safe driver awards are given. [emoji3]
