What should I do?<\/strong><br \/>\nFirst try to reboot your device. If rebooting does not help, please call our single phone number +<strong>370 527 20 507<\/strong>, select \u2018Technical Department\u2019 and, having heard through the menu, select \u2018Tablet\/Phone Help\u2019.<br \/>\nYou can also contact Aleksandr directly (at +370 640 79849, +370 615 32463).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do I need to take the tachograph card out during my lengthy weekly rest?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes. During your lengthy weekly rest, you must take the tachograph card out.<\/li>\n<li><strong>I am having problems with the truck tractor. Who should I call?<\/strong><br \/>\nDrivers often only inform their manager of any technical malfunctions they\u2019re facing because they don\u2019t know how to contact the Technical Department.<br \/>\nA kindly reminder: if you face any technical malfunctions, contact the Technical Department directly\u00a0\u2013 to do that, call our single phone number +<strong>370 527 20 507 <\/strong>and select the relevant menu item.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do I need to open ADR plates when carrying a \u2018Limited Quantity\u2019 cargo?<\/strong><br \/>\nNo. If your ADR cargo does not exceed the 1000-point limit, you don\u2019t need to open ADR plates.<\/li>\n<li><strong>I have to load and unload the truck by myself. What should I do?<\/strong><br \/>\nPlease inform your manager to that effect. You must also fill in the \u2018Manual Loading \/ Unloading\u2019 form in Fleethand.<\/li>\n<li><strong>I\u2019m facing an axle overload. What should I do?<\/strong><br \/>\nImmediately inform your manager to that effect. Furthermore, it is important not to wait for any additional instructions and immediately ask the consignor to re-distribute the cargo so as to eliminate the overload.<br \/>\nHaving noticed an overload after loading, drivers often only inform their manager and take no action. However, the problem is commonly resolvable then and there\u00a0\u2013 it is important to let freight handlers know about it right after loading.<\/li>\n<li><strong>When will the expenses be refunded?<\/strong><br \/>\nExpenses are normally refunded together with the salary payment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Procedure:<br \/>\n\u2022 A driver creates an expense entry in the \u2018Expense Forms\u2019 section.<br \/>\n\u2022 Their manager checks the accuracy of the information provided and the correctness of the filled form.<br \/>\n\u2022 Their manager approves or rejects (specifying the reason for rejecting where applicable) the expenses.<\/p>\n<p>Approved expenses may be refunded before the salary day, if a driver files a separate request to that effect (simply specifies that they would prefer getting the money right now, in their tablet).<\/p>\n<p><strong>14. Why do petrol stations change so often?<\/strong><br \/>\nPetrol stations change daily because of the fluctuating fuel prices.<br \/>\nThe locations we select are the most cost-effective option in terms of the final prices given the applicable discounts.<br \/>\nOn the panel, drivers see standard prices without discounts, this is why they may have an impression that fuel is cheaper at other petrol stations.<br \/>\nDecisions are taken based on the actual price offered to our company.<\/p>\n<p><strong>15. For how many hours a day can I drive a vehicle?<\/strong><br \/>\n9\u00a0hours a day, and 2\u00a0times a week\u00a0\u2013 10\u00a0hours a day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>16. How long shall the daily and weekly rest periods last?<\/strong><br \/>\nDaily rest period: 11\u00a0hours a day, and max 3\u00a0times a week it may be reduced to 9\u00a0hours a day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>17. My tachograph is out of order. What should I do?<\/strong><br \/>\nStop your operations and fill in tachograph\u2019s printed sheets or perform manual registration. Please inform your transport manager to that effect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>18. Who is responsible for cargo attachment?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe driver because it is the driver who carries the cargo and must ensure its secure attachment. If the cargo is not properly prepared, the driver may refuse to start the trip until the violations have been eliminated by the freight forwarder.<\/p>\n<p><strong>19. May I increase the driving time if a force majeure occurs?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes, in the EU, breaking the rules is only allowed to the extent it is done for safety purposes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>20. What are driver\u2019s required actions when carrying wastes?<\/strong><br \/>\nTable A must be opened in front of the tractor and behind the trailer. If table\u00a0A is missing in front of the tractor or behind the trailer, report your manager to that effect.<br \/>\nIf table\u00a0A is missing in front of the tractor, take a white A4 sheet, write a large-character \u201cA\u201d and place it behind the windscreen, so that it is visible from the outside.<br \/>\nWhen carrying wastes, when loading, you must also obtain a document titled ANNEX\u00a0IV.<\/p>\n<p><strong>21. May I take a 24-hour pause during my first days off (after I\u2019m back from my vacation)?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes, it does not constitute a violation of the work and rest pattern.<br \/>\nIf you have any questions, please contact the instructors\u00a0\u2013 they will provide you with detailed explanations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>22. Who is responsible for filling in the CMR<\/strong><br \/>\nFilling in the CMR is driver\u2019s responsibility, rather than consignor\u2019s.<br \/>\nIf during an inspection a fine for the incorrectly filled CMR is imposed, the fine shall be paid by the driver.<\/p>\n<p><strong>23. I\u2019m unable to reach the parking area specified by my manager. What should I do?<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you cannot reach the parking area specified by your manager, you must send the relevant message to your manager in advance (1 to 3\u00a0hours before), and your manager will find a closer parking lot for you.<br \/>\nAfter 4:00\u00a0pm (European time), if your manager doesn\u2019t answer your message, call them directly because your manager might have already left the office and have no access to messages.<br \/>\nStopping \u201con the road\u201d is strictly prohibited.<\/p>\n<p><strong>24. Is it necessary to mark the tasks in the tablet on time?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes, it is necessary.<br \/>\nWhen you arrive at the place of loading, record your arrival in your tablet right away.<br \/>\nWhile you\u2019re waiting for the loading to start, mark the relevant status.<br \/>\nWhen the loading starts, make sure to mark the relevant task complete in your tablet.<br \/>\nPerform the same actions at the place of unloading.<\/p>\n<p><strong>25. If upon unloading the consignee does not return the additional documents, is it necessary to report this to my manager?<\/strong><br \/>\nIf at loading a CMR and additional documents were received, you must ask to return them back after unloading as well.<br \/>\nIf the consignee refuses to return the additional documents, report this to your manager and wait for their instructions.<br \/>\nUpon unloading, you must scan not just the CMR, but also all additional documents received, using your tablet.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;] What\u2019s driver\u2019s salary and how is it calculated?
