Include Newspaper Delivery Drivers. Most Truck Drivers start work very early in the morning to make deliveries to chain grocery stores, produce markets, or bakeries.
Drivers get health and life insurance, disability, and retirement pensions.
Union drivers get benefits, but they are negotiated by union representatives of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. The outlook for Light Truck Drivers is good. The turnover among beginning drivers is high, and turnover due to retirements and career changes goes on all the time. The need for local deliveries has grown due to the constant development of shopping centers, homes, and malls. Because of this growth, Light Truck Drivers are needed to make more deliveries from central warehouses in order to meet customer demand.
