Per Diem: Per diem is the amount the government feels is reasonable for drivers’ daily travel and work expenses. Thus, $52 of drivers’ income is not taxed for the number of days that they work that week. For example, if a driver earned $1,000 last week and worked five days, $260 of the driver’s gross income is not subject to taxes. Thus, your take-home pay is higher than it normally would be.
