20.500.12556/DKUM-98788 The effects of financial and non-financial rewards on truck drivers’ satisfaction The transport sector is facing a system-wide shortage of labour and a high turnover rate among truck drivers. The objective of this study is to determine the effects of financial and non-financial rewards on fatigue and, consequently, on the satisfaction of truck drivers. For this purpose, a survey was conducted on a sample of 218 truck drivers within the EU. The hypotheses were tested using structural modelling. The results of the structural equation model showed that higher rewards are associated with increased fatigue among truck drivers; however, there is a positive correlation between driver fatigue and job satisfaction. The truck drivers are not considering employment in a different industry and are satisfied with their choice of profession. The study builds on previous research and contributes to the understanding of factors that influence the work of truck drivers. The results contribute to improvements in the area of financial and non-financial rewards in transport companies. They are also valuable for policy-makers in establishing new legislative frameworks in the transport sector, both in terms of safety and employment of truck drivers. transportation financial rewards non-financial rewards truck drivers satisfaction transport finančne nagrade nefinančne nagrade vozniki tovornih vozil zadovoljstvo pri delu true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2026-07-08 07:03:26 2026-07-27 08:40:51 2026-07-28 03:08:37 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2026 0 0 str. 1258-1272 št. 6 Letn. 38 2026 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2025-10-15 2026-02-06 2026-06-29 656.13:331.101.32 282128131 10.7307/ptt.v38i6.3152 1848-4069 The_Effects_of_Financial_and_Non--SKerliC-2026.pdf The_Effects_of_Financial_and_Non--SKerliC-2026.pdf 1 673A69279FDDD41DBDED8700DD9D2F0F ceb93afe928a0249c3758a1cd0968bf630b472fc933d90f7e1227dc0e6e90ba3 3c63db1a-8986-11f1-872e-00155d0001be https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=208640 https://traffic2.fpz.hr/index.php/PROMTT/article/view/3152 0 5abf4a45-7a8a-11f1-8a43-00155d580e34 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=208040 Fakulteta za varnostne vede 0 0 0
