Transport, Logistics & Delivery Edition · Module 4
Cash, COD, Fuel, Expenses & Payment Integrity
Transport and delivery employees may handle money while working away from the office.
Examples may include:
- Cash on Delivery / COD
- customer cash payments
- POS payments
- fuel money
- fuel cards
- fuel vouchers
- tolls
- parking
- loading expenses
- approved emergency expenses
- cash advances
- reimbursements
These transactions can create confusion when employees begin mixing:
COMPANY MONEY
PERSONAL MONEY
CUSTOMER MONEY
and
WORK EXPENSES.
A Driver may think:
“I collected ₦100,000 from the customer. I need ₦15,000 for fuel, so I will remove it and explain later.”
That may sound convenient.
But it destroys the clarity of the transaction.
A stronger system keeps separate:
WHAT THE CUSTOMER PAID
WHAT THE COMPANY RECEIVED
WHAT THE EMPLOYEE SPENT
WHAT WAS AUTHORIZED
WHAT MUST BE REIMBURSED
BY THE END OF THIS MODULE, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO:
- understand how approved payment channels protect everyone
- handle COD responsibly
- confirm payments accurately
- avoid personal-account collection
- preserve payment records
- use fuel money, cards and vouchers appropriately
- make honest expense claims
- avoid borrowing from company or customer funds
- avoid unofficial charges and personal side payments
- report shortages, overages and payment discrepancies honestly
Core Behavior
Keep customer payments, company money and employee expenses separate, traceable and honest.
TrueConduct Principle
Money in your custody is not automatically money you may use.
Remember
Convenience is not a financial control.
