Reading the Trucking & Warehousing CEO Pay Landscape (SIC 42, FY2025)
The Trucking & Warehousing industry, classified under 2-digit SIC code 42, had 9 SEC-reporting public companies disclose CEO pay ratio data in fiscal year 2025. Across that set of firms, the median CEO-to-worker pay ratio was 73:1 and the average was 65:1. Median CEO total compensation in the sector was $5.5M, with the sector-wide average at $4.9M. These figures are aggregated from DEF 14A proxy statements filed under Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act, which requires every U.S.-listed reporting company to compare its CEO's total compensation against a representative median employee.
Pay dispersion inside this industry is substantial. The 25th percentile CEO in Trucking & Warehousing earned $2.1M, while the 75th percentile CEO earned $6.6M - a spread that shows how firm size, equity-heavy compensation packages, and performance-linked incentives can drive very different outcomes even among peers sharing the same SIC code. When the average and median ratios are close, as they are here, pay practices in the sector are relatively uniform and the median is a reliable representative value.
