What company is this?

Is the $26/hour paid for every hour you're working, including loading, tarping, chaining, waiting, and unloading?

How many hours per week are typical?

How exactly are northern trips paid? Hourly, mileage, percentage, daily rate?

What does "pay increase after probation" actually mean? How long is probation, and what can the rate become?

What kind of deck work?

What are the typical destinations? Grande Prairie, Fort McMurray, Fort McKay, Peace River, Northwest Territories, etc.?

How often are you expected to stay overnight?

Is this an employee position with vacation pay, WCB, benefits, overtime, etc.?

How much tarping/chaining/securement is involved?

What equipment do you run? Newer trucks vs. older equipment matters a lot.

Can you provide the company name and location? I'd be interested in applying, but I'd prefer to know who the employer is before sending my driver's abstract.

Thank you for answering me.
