Trucking Company Practices?

Question

I began working for a trucking company in Arkansas the end of July and was to be paid for orientation which lasted one week. Never got paid. I then have documented hours and mileage for the next two weeks and was not compensated the proper amount. I drove over 3000 miles and was paid about $200 less than what I should have been paid, both weeks. Who can I report this to? When I call the company, I am transferred to numerous people, none of who have an answer. I refuse to work these long hours, eating unhealthy, sleeping in a cab and spending time away from my family for less than minimum wage. This company also has many unsafe driving practices that could be reported.

Answer 1

Ideas:

Suggest you contact the payroll dept and/or HR dept.

Ask your boss who to talk to.

Ask other drivers who to talk to.

Give them the benefit of the doubt until you find out for sure they are hosing you,

There are a billion other driving jobs available for good drivers with CDL.
