Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I worked for Swift. I became a trainer. I was making between $1,000 and $1,300 a week. Then I hurt my back while cleaning the inside of the truck while it was in front of my house. The company insists that this is not work related (see Swift policy manual section II page 44 cleanliness of equipment).

They sent me to a medical clinic that put me on light duty status. While that was the case, Swift payed for a bus ticket to and from the 120 miles I live from the terminal, and put me up in a motel while I worked in the office. As soon as their worker's comp insurance company said they would not pay, that all came to an end.

I signed up for what I was told was income protection. From what I've been told I may get about $380 a week. For at least a month now I have been trying to get pay they should owe me for a student I have trained.

A company that wants to retain employees should treat them better. By the way, my DM said she did not want to loose me as an employee. Also I didn't have any service failures while employed with Swift. Bottom line, "Would I go back to work for Swift? NO!."
