Shifts, Rosters & Earnings
JLP drivers have a base 7-hour ordinary shift length however drivers typically work well beyond that enabling them to increase their earnings potential. Whilst the day-to-day hours vary depending on customer demand, weather and other operational factors, most JLP drivers typically expect to work a 11–12-hour shift however some days can be shorter or longer depending on the work scheduled and operational needs of our customers.
JLP provides a variety of roster patterns but most typically we operate 2 different rosters. Our predominant roster provides the greatest number of shifts/earning potential,
whilst we also offer a ‘lifestyle’ roster which provides a reduced number of shifts and time away from work.

- Paid by the hour, including paid rest breaks with various allowances and penalty rates for overtime beyond 7-hour ordinary day
- 4 weeks annual leave at base weekly pay plus a 22.5% leave loading
- Additional shifts can be picked up pending business demand and driver fatigue compliance
- Earnings Potential: Based on 12-hour shifts, drivers working this roster can earn $4100-4350 gross per week. This excludes additional pay for extra shifts worked, public holidays worked or paid leave taken.
