All my men make above scale, they receive above mandated benefits, more holidays than mandated, more vacation (our local has none) and I cover them for sick leave, family leave on a case by case (birth, death, wife or child illness) and a yearly bonus even in tough times that is close (for some) to 15% of their yearly pay, Take their trucks home (some live 80 miles away one way), buy all tools they need or want (with approval).

You see REWIRE just another management DI*KHEAD
