A strong work ethic breeds success. The level of company and individual success is a direct result of the quality of work performed. Successful businesses are those in which individual and company values and goals are aligned. When this is the case, everyone wins. Marvin Keller expects all employees to perform to the best of their abilities. The highest-performing drivers are reliable, flexible, dedicated, disciplined, and productive. Here are a few of the ways that you can demonstrate a strong work ethic:
- Work your assigned schedule: Unplanned absences are detrimental to the company and to you as a result. If you share a truck, your partner is also affected by your absences as this may result in your schedules being disrupted.
- Be on time: Be where you are supposed to be every step of your day. This involves discipline and trip planning. Not everything runs perfectly, but trip planning and giving yourself extra time helps to avoid long delays if you miss appointments due to traffic congestion or other unforeseen delays.
- Be efficient with your time. When your time is regulated and you only have so many hours to work, you have to make them count.
A good work ethic results in enhanced job performance, career advancement, and better pay. Marvin Keller is focused on service and driver performance; we are monitoring on-duty/not-driving times to ensure we are being efficient and productive. We are here to support you and if you feel there is anything standing in the way of your success, please reach out to the Driver Manager team. We want to make sure everyone is able to perform at their full potential.
