Important Notice on Route Compliance and Compensation Policy

At CNS, we take route accountability seriously to ensure operational efficiency and protect opportunities for all drivers on the line. Please be aware of the following policies that are strictly enforced:

1. Unauthorized Route Drops and Package Returns:
   Any driver who returns packages and abandons a route without prior notification or giving CNS an opportunity to attempt a rescue will forfeit compensation for the entire week of routes, not just the abandoned day. Returning packages—regardless of the issue—without first contacting dispatch is considered a deliberate act of negligencethat puts company operations and fellow drivers at risk. In many cases, such actions can cause entire delivery lines to be canceled, directly impacting dozens of drivers who depend on those routes.

2. Warehouse Policy on Compensation Timing:
   All routes are compensated based on CNS warehouse policy, which includes a mandatory 2-week backpay hold. This time frame ensures that all packages have been properly delivered, scanned, or returned, and allows for any claims or discrepancies to be resolved. Payments are not released early under any circumstance unless explicitly authorized in writing by management.

3. Package Holding Period and Penalties:
   Packages must not be held for more than 3 days under any circumstance. Exceeding this holding period will automatically trigger penalties, including:

   • Loss of compensation for the entire route assigned on that day

   • Financial penalties for any track breaks or lost package claims resulting from delays

Drivers are reminded that these policies are in place to maintain trust with our shipping partners, preserve route contracts, and ensure fairness to all team members. Failure to follow them will result in strict enforcement without exceptions.

✅ Steps Required for Payment

1. Pull your route analysis from the designated app.

   • Must include Delivery date and total number of delivered packages.

2. Refer to the CNS Payout Tier Chart to determine the correct payout based on your completed package count.

3. Submit an official invoice including:

   • Delivery date

   • Total packages delivered

   • Tier payout value

🚨 No invoice = No payment. All compensation must be invoiced—no exceptions.

---

💰 Payout Schedule

• Standard Payouts:
  All routes are subject to a 2-week back pay hold to allow time for claim reviews and validation.

  • Once cleared, payouts are issued on a regular Friday through Monday schedule.

• 24/48-Hour Payouts:
  Available for overflow and expedited routes only if:

  • The entire route is completed

  • All undelivered packages are returned to the warehouse

  • If there are failed deliveries, the 24/48-hour window starts only after pending packages are returned 

---

⚠️ Important Reminders

• Compensation totals are only affected in the event of active claims resulting from:

  • Lost packages

  • Unreturned packages within the allowed timeframe

  • Incorrect or failed deliveries

These issues fall under Gross Negligence, and penalties will be automatically deducted at the time of payout.

---

⏳ Claim Your Payout Within 90 Days

• All compensation must be invoiced and claimed within 90 days of the delivery date.

• After 90 days, unclaimed compensation is voided due to system data resets which erase package history.
