J.B. Hunt Transport Services anunció que el viernes pagó casi 10 millones de dólares en bonos de agradecimiento a los trabajadores de primera línea. La compañía, con sede en Lowell, Arkansas, dijo que los pagos fueron para los conductores de la compañía, los técnicos de mantenimiento y los empleados por hora elegibles.

“Este año, nuestros conductores y empleados de primera línea han hecho la milla extra para cumplir con nuestros compromisos y satisfacer las necesidades de los clientes”, dijo John Roberts, presidente y CEO. “Queríamos expresar nuestra gratitud por su dedicación para hacer de J.B. Hunt el líder de la industria que es hoy”.

Para ser elegibles, los empleados tenían que haber sido contratados antes del 1 de octubre. Los empleados a tiempo completo por hora elegibles incluían a los que no formaban parte de otro programa de bonificación.
