- The calendar is fleet-wide: drivers do not pick their own period. Typical setup is a weekly period paid the following Friday.
- Per-mile pay includes deadhead; percentage pay is a share of linehaul, not of accessorials.
- Hourly and local drivers carry worked hours per load: the clock starts at the driver's first duty status for the load and ends at delivery; a manually entered figure wins and is flagged for review.
- No overtime for CDL drivers under the FLSA motor-carrier exemption; the settlement does not compute it.
