(WILDER, KY) - RWI Transportation has announced a pay increase, effective immediately, of two cents per loaded mile for all drivers, with one cent linked to a new RWI safety bonus.

Each truck qualifies for a one-cent per mile safety payment on all dispatched loaded miles on completed trips within a calendar month. This incentive, an outgrowth of RWI's ongoing commitment to driver safety, will be paid out on a monthly basis to drivers who have qualified during the month.

"This compensation increase allows RWI to remain competitive in our driver recruting while we reward and retain our existing safe drivers," said Daryl Harmon, Associate Director of Carrier Relations & Driver Recruitment for RWI Transportation. "Quality drivers are critical to RWI's ability to service its customers. One thing that sets us apart is how consistent our volume is, thanks to the built-in freight we get from our parent company, Castellini," said Harmon. "This pay raise, the attractive opportunities we have available right now, and our other incentives like sign-on bonuses, make this a great time for drivers to join RWI."
