The Bulk pay increase impacts both experienced and inexperienced network and regional bulk drivers, with regional drivers realizing an average pay increase of $3,500 per year and over the road bulk tanker drivers realizing an increase of $1,100 per year. In addition, drivers for the Bulk division will be guaranteed six days off per month and flexible time at home. Owner-operators will also qualify for company-paid pump and compressor retrofits, which are typically valued at $10,000.

Unlike most truckload carriers, Schneider offers a company-provided training program for inexperienced drivers looking to enter the industry and a broad range of employment options for drivers, including weekly and bi-weekly runs. Newly-hired drivers in the Houston area may work for several different accounts, which offer employment options that are designed to meet individual lifestyles and varying time-at-home needs.

“As Houston continues to recover from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, there is an even greater need for transportation capacity in the region,” said Rob Reich, vice president of enterprise recruiting at Schneider National. “Schneider is excited to be a part of the state’s rebuilding efforts by bringing jobs to support new and existing customers with service excellence.”

Schneider National’s comprehensive, company-provided training program is recognized as one of the best in the industry for its commitment to safety and service excellence. Inexperienced drivers are encouraged to apply for the new positions and will earn an average of $34,500-$42,500 in their first year. Experienced drivers will earn an average of $48,500-$57,500 per year. Owner-operators leasing with Schneider National will average $105,000-$115,000 annually.

In 2005, Schneider announced the largest compensation and work-life improvement package in its 70-year history. An example of a new work-life improvement is the company’s Home Run program. The program creates “pods” of three drivers, or teams, who live near each other and share two tractors. A driver, or team, gets one week at home while the other two drivers “run.” Under the program, drivers spend 17 weeks at home per year, meeting driver requests for improved work-life balance.

Schneider National is an equal opportunity employer.
