Guaranteed Daily Minimum
- How It’s Calculated:
○ For each day shown on the settlement, the system adds up all payroll earnings on that date for that driver from Linehaul, Shuttle, and Spot trips.
○ If the total earned on a specific day is more than the guaranteed minimum, the driver gets paid for that amount earned from the trips performed on the settlement (no changes).
○ If the total earned on a specific day is less than the guaranteed minimum, the system replaces the daily total with the guaranteed minimum.
- Special Option for Days Without Work:
○ You can choose to pay the Guaranteed Minimum even on days when the driver hasn’t worked (no trips show non the settlement). This ensures the driver receives a minimum payroll amount for those days too.
