■Is there a salary for the waiting time? Explain how executive drivers work!

Many executive drivers have the image of getting a high salary because they are drivers. However, some people may have stopped changing jobs because they are worried about how the waiting time will be handled and whether they will be working on holidays. Therefore, here, we will explain the salary of executive drivers on standby and the treatment of working on holidays.

 

 

1. What is the job of an executive driver?

An executive driver is a driver who transfers executives, including the president who works for a specific company. In some cases, you will be dispatched from a taxi company. Since we sometimes carry people from outside the company, we need the technical ability to drive according to the needs of our customers. It is also part of my job to be courteous and always be attentive. Working hours must be in line with the officer's schedule. As a result, executive drivers often have to work on holidays or work overtime.

 

2. How long is the driving time per day?

The amount of time an officer driver drives throughout the day depends on the officer's schedule. First of all, the day's work begins when you pick up at the officer's home. After sending an officer to the company, there is a waiting time until the officer finishes his duties. As soon as the officer's work is finished, I will drive to the officer's house again. Driving time also depends on how far the executive's house is from the company. Generally, it seems that you will drive for about 2 to 4 hours a day. When an officer goes to a business partner, he / she must pick up and drop off at the destination. When traveling far away, we may pick you up at the airport or train station, so driving time may be longer depending on the pick-up location.

 

3. Is the waiting time a break time?

The officer driver must be on standby while the officer is in business. Except for the driving time, all the time is waiting time. For this reason, executive drivers generally wait 5 to 7 hours for 2 to 4 hours a day. If you include breaks, you will be detained for 9 hours a day. The waiting time is not free, but it is used for checking the schedule of officers, cleaning the car and doing maintenance. It is important to prepare carefully so that officers and business partners can board with peace of mind.

In addition, wages will be incurred during the waiting time when you are not driving, so we will do a preliminary survey so that we can always provide high-quality service while waiting. If an officer visits a business partner, know the route to the business partner. Remember the back roads and the shortest route, even in the event of an accident or traffic jam. If officers have lunch on the move, it's also important to find out what restaurants are on the road.

Basically, it is not necessary for the officer driver to speak positively, but when the officer speaks, it is necessary to answer accurately. Therefore, make sure that you can deal with topics such as traffic information, weather, and social conditions on a daily basis so that you can talk to them at any time. Even if you are told a topic that you do not understand, you need the ability to talk together. It is also the duty of the officer driver to take care to create a good atmosphere inside the car so that the officer can work comfortably.

 

4. Do you have designated working hours?

The working hours of executive drivers are the same as those of general employees, and the basic working hours are fixed. Therefore, it is not a commission system like a taxi driver, so it can be said that the monthly salary is often stable. However, although working hours are fixed, there are many cases where officers ask for pick-up and drop-off during non-working hours. For entertainment and errands with business partners, you are required to pick up and drop off even on holidays and at night. For overtime work, overtime allowance, midnight allowance, and holiday allowance will be paid separately. However, in the case of intermittent work such as an officer driver, the employer can exclude the application of overtime work by obtaining permission from the government agency. Therefore, some companies are exempt from the obligation to pay overtime and holiday allowances, so there may be no other than midnight allowances.

 

 

The work of executive drivers is intermittent!

We have touched on the working styles of executive drivers, but could you deepen your understanding of the work system and salary? It can be said that executive drivers often work intermittently because the pick-up time is different. Therefore, it is important to check the treatment to see if overtime work is permitted. If you are a "Transact" that provides a service to dispatch drivers, you can work as an executive driver with favorable treatment.
