How does experience and age affect your pay?

Experience is the most important factor in determining your salary. Naturally, the more years of experience you have, the higher your wage will be.

A Truck Driver with less than two years of experience makes approximately $2,950 NAD per month. While we expected someone with an experience level between two and five years to earn $4,180 NAD per month, that number is 42% more than someone with less than two years of experience.

Moving forward, an experience level of five to ten years lands a salary that’s 31% more than someone with two to five years. So the more experience you have, the higher your salary will be.

Truck drivers who’ve been in the profession for ten to fifteen years get paid a salary equivalent to 6,750 NAD per month. Drivers with less experience make 23% less than that.

How do education levels affect salaries?

With what you earn when you are a Truck Driver, more education is correlated with higher pay. Someone with a High school diploma will earn 5,380 NAD per month while someone with a Bachelor’s degree in transportation engineering will make 6,840 NAD per month.

A Bachelor’s Degree is more expensive but provides more income than someone with secondary education. It has an average monthly salary of 7,210 NAD and can lead to a 34% boost over someone with only a certificate or diploma.
