Truck Driver - Research Survey (ONET Occupation Study)

About this study

Mercor is building a new, more accurate version of ONET — the U.S. government's framework for describing occupations and the tasks they involve. We are gathering input directly from experienced practitioners to improve how the work of truck drivers is described.

What you'll do

• Complete a one-time online survey/interview about your day-to-day work as a truck driver. It takes up to 30 minutes.

• There may be an optional follow-up survey, task, or short interview afterward, which would be paid separately.

Pay

• Pay is set in proportion to the expected hourly wage for heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers~. The initial task is~ 30 minutes, so it pays roughly half an hour at that rate, with the potential for additional paid tasks later.

Who we're looking for

• 2+ years of experience working specifically as a truck driver (SOC 53-3032.00 — Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers).

• U.S.-based.

• Currently employed as a truck driver, or employed in the role recently — we are not looking for people who left the profession many years ago.

• You must have actually held a heavy or tractor-trailer truck driver role. Trainees or people with only general driving experience are not a fit unless they have genuinely worked as a truck driver.
