“Our people are our internal customers. ” David L. reminds us of that weekly. If we are a service organization, we should evaluate how we treat our customers and the service we provide to them. Same goes for the personnel. Without our drivers, the company just wouldn’t exist. Custom Commodities was started by a driver, has grown with drivers and will continue to be driver-oriented as we move into this new phase of our existence.
We are investing in you and the success of your family continually. While we have added company record breaking pay packages the last two years, we believe there is more to investing in you than just the weekly paycheck.
We have been and continue to invest in millions of dollars of new equipment which has the driver first in mind. From the heated leather seats to the s-bar heater in the cabin to the refrigerator and TV mount, the creature comforts are some great additions to our top of the line, safe, new equipment tailored to you and your safety.
The health insurance plan we implemented at the beginning of this year was a huge investment in your families, as Custom opted to take on a large percentage of the premium burden in order to lower your deductibles. We moved to self-funding in order to begin to help control the spend your families expend on medical and medications.
We promote heavily and heartily your participation in the 401k plan. We have more participation than ever before because you are deciding to go alongside us as you save for your family’s future.
HealthJoy, the concierge app for your benefit information is a great addition this year. It offers a one stop location for you and your family members on the plan for your benefits information, access to claims, access to low cost procedures, prescription discounts and telemedicine. The best part is that it’s a completely free benefit to you. Custom picks up the cost.
Financial health is just as important as physical health, and Custom is offering all of our employees the opportunity to find financial wellness with free access to Dave Ramsey’s SmartDollar program. You have full access to the resources, videos, software all online to work together with your family at home on achieving your financial goals whatever they may be.
The rules of investing state that taking high risk yields high reward. When evaluating the risk of the investment dollars we have discussed here, we opted to take the higher risk, and ‘roll the dice’ on YOU. We believe that it will pay dividends in the long run, and any good investor knows that it’s the long play that pays the most.
Custom Commodities is working daily to invest in the future of our employees who make it a success.
