1.1) “2 Strikes” Policy

If you receive a second strike within 1 year, you will be removed from Global Cargo. This applies to violations on Discord, external platforms (e.g., TMP), and anonymous reports.

A Strike expire after 1 year of good behavior. However, repeated similar behavior may still be taken into consideration.

In cases of serious violations (e.g., reckless driving, fraud, or major misconduct), the first strike may be skipped and membership may be terminated immediately

Strike 1: Written warning from Human Resources
Strike 2: Removal from Global Cargo. A vote will be held to determine blacklist status.

1.1a) Case Voting Outcomes

- Insufficient Evidence / Case Dismissed = Due to a lack of evidence/information the case couldn’t proceed and will be cancelled. No punishment has been applied.
- Official Warning = A warning given to a person as an outcome of voting. There are no limits on how many warnings you can have.
- Strike = A marked penalty on your profile, if you receive another one within a year your membership will be terminated. See rule 1.1).
- Removal = Your membership will be terminated immediately, but you may reapply at a later time. (Minimum 1 month, to management’s discretion)
- Removal + Blacklist = Your membership will be terminated immediately. And you won’t be allowed back in the VTC.

2.2) Because Global Cargo is a large VTC, Management often has a full workload and may not be able to respond immediately. If you have a complaint, concern, or issue that needs to be addressed, please follow the steps below so it can be handled quickly and by the right person.

Complaints:

1. Open an HR-ticket (#contact-us) Or use the anonymous reporting form https://www.globalcargovtc.nl/en/contact/anonymous-report/)
2. Management

7) Freight Rules

Mods that reduce income or increase difficulty are permitted.
If you are found using prohibited economy-boosting mods, your membership with Global Cargo will be permanently terminated.

7.2) Global Cargo strives for realism. Any use of damage or collision mods will be subject to disciplinary action outlined in Section 1.1).

7.3) Global Cargo assumes that you are honest when completing jobs and we expect to be able to observe this in your cargo log.

7.4) The maximum income for a manually logged job is €/$ 400,000 or 8000km. This means that the expected income of the job may not exceed this limit. Additional bonuses such as sponsored freights do not affect this. There is no max for Tracker Logged jobs.

7.5) The maximum income per kilometer/mile is €/$ 210,-. When the total income divided by the distance travelled is higher, the job cannot be submitted.

7.6) Any manual job exceeding $/€ 200,000 in income or 4000 km in distance must be approved by Human Resources. Affected jobs will be automatically flagged and blocked until HR has completed its review.

Required screenshots
  - Home Screen, Freight Center, or Load Market displaying the freight details
  - Delivery Screen or Job Log Overview displaying income, distance driven, and damage percentage.

7.6a) The limits for Tracker Jobs are $/€ 400,000 or 6000km. Screenshots are still required for jobs over the limit.

7.7) A delivery with a car is not allowed to be submitted on Trucksweb.

7.8) The use of dispatchers such as the TMP Dispatcher, Trucky and Virtual Speditor is allowed, but not to abuse the cargo system. Remember to always check your job to see if it is in compliance with the rules.

7.9) When entering the number of kilometers driven, only the kilometers driven on land apply. It is not allowed to abuse the boat, train or fast travel. A rule of thumb is that you have driven at least 75% of the expected mileage to submit a load. (Example, without usage of the ferry the route is 1000 km, with use of the ferry, this is only 400 km. This route is not valid.)

7.10) If you have any doubts about the legitimacy of a job, please contact Human Resources according to 2.2).

7.11) Drivers are required to complete at a minimum, one job OR attend one convoy every 3 months. Drivers who are inactive for a period longer than three months (without a valid reason) will see their memberships terminated.
