North American finished-vehicle hauler, United Road, has extended its Guaranteed Pay Benefit scheme to all of its company drivers in an effort to provide greater security for its employees.

The move follows a pilot scheme earlier this year for first time drivers, which resulted in “a dramatic increase in driver satisfaction and retention”, according to president and CEO Marc Anderson. 

“It was a natural to take this pay stabilisation benefit company-wide with our tenured and returning drivers,” Anderson continued. “Our goal is to be the employer of choice for professional drivers. These men and women are the ‘front door’ of our customers’ experience with United Road.”
