PHU ELKOR

PHU ELKOR is described as a trucking company suitable for gaining experience, though opinions are mixed on long-term employment. The company operates primarily in Germany, France, and Benelux countries with refrigerated (reefer) truck transport. Payment is calculated per kilometer (unofficially, with official minimum of 2,500 PLN), and drivers report receiving approximately 1,700-1,800 PLN from around 10,000 km of work. Management is described as strict but fair regarding payments, though they deduct significant amounts for vehicle damage (200 EUR for scratches) and lost pallets. Working conditions include mandatory night driving, shift-based work at the depot, and self-unloading without additional compensation. The company accepts drivers of all experience levels, making it accessible for newcomers. However, long-term employment is challenging. Relations depend heavily on driver behavior—those who work properly and respect management receive better treatment and have minor infractions overlooked. Ukrainian drivers report experiencing discrimination regardless of tenure. Vehicle maintenance is a major complaint, particularly regarding tire quality on drive axles, where management disputes replacement needs despite visible wear.
