Free individual medical plans are also available, providing ample health coverage options for workers and their families.

Safety remains at the forefront of all operations, with TForce Freight emphasizing adherence to all local, state, and federal transportation regulations and workplace safety protocols. The successful candidate will be expected to maintain a secure and clean working environment while efficiently managing dock activities and transportation logistics. Strong communication skills and a positive, customer-focused attitude are critical, as the dockworker will interact with the management team to coordinate schedules and address any transportation issues promptly.

Joining TForce Freight means becoming part of a dynamic and expanding team that values reliability, professionalism, and the pursuit of excellence in freight transportation.
