To enroll or not to enroll in a company-paid per diem program that includes a fleet per diem administration fee, that is the question.
Background: ABC is a truckload carrier that offers voluntary company-paid per diem. Drivers who enroll are paid $.045 CPM of which $0.10 CPM is allocated to per diem, less a $0.02 CPM fleet administration fee. Drivers who choose not to enroll earn a flat $0.45 CPM and can deduct per diem on their own tax return.
John Smith recently went to work for ABC and is unsure if he should enroll in the company per diem plan. He departs home every Monday morning and returns home Friday evening, averages 2250 miles per week and works 50 weeks a year. John is married, but his wife is not working. He owns a modest home, and pays state income, real estate and personal property taxes.
The motor carrier claims he will take home more money and pay less taxes if he enrolls in their per diem program even after giving back $2,250 in fleet administration fees.
Conclusion: John may save a few hundred dollars in federal taxes, but he must forfeit $2,250 of additional income to do so. In addition, the tax savings come at an additional cost: $9,000 of wages omitted from his Form W-2 that will be noticed by a home or auto lender and may lower his employer 401(k) match, social security and workers compensation benefits.

Per Diem Plus®, a proprietary software application, which provides automatic per diem and expense tracking to truckers.
An employee truck driver asked the following question to the Per Diem Plus tax experts during the 2016 MidAmerica Truck Show: "Is cent per mile or IRS daily rate per diem better for a driver?"
The cent per mile per diem method has been the transportation industry standard for decades and is most often utilized by fleets who offer employee drivers company paid per diem. Under the cent per mile method a driver is paid only for miles driven and not nights away from home.
Although, a driver may travel 500 miles one day but only 250 miles the next, the distance traveled does not affect the need to eat three meals a day. To remedy this problem the IRS introduced the Special Transportation Industry* daily rate per diem that ignores miles traveled and relies on days away from home. The most beneficial aspect to a driver is that per diem can be claimed during a 34 hour restart and unforeseen delays like breakdowns, waiting for permits or weather.
The table below illustrates the advantage of choosing daily rate per diem:
