Ministry of Transportation failed to establish a program which helps new AZ drivers to find job. Employers demand 2 years experience. This is nothing less than discrimination, because you are licensed by MTO - that means you are qualified and approved to drive. If not, then that means fraud by driving schools and MTO, because you paid lots of money for training.
Where is the right solution?
To go to court is one option. The second - better is to go on strike before Ministry building.
I am waiting for your replies to coordinate actions. We have to address the issue to MTO and demand from government to pass a law which will protect new drivers. By the way, all drivers should demand to be treated like other humans:
- with minimum salary $30 per hour for the highly responsible duty
- with driving / working no more than 40 hours weekly.
- with 40% extra pay for night driving and over the limit hours.
Since the profession of truck drivers is regulated and enforced by government, so should be regulated their salary and working condition. Thank you for response.
