Sales Lead Bonus

Commercial Accounts
If an employee turns in a lead sheet and Vasko gets the account, the employee will receive $50 if the account's monthly rate is $50 or more and $25 if the rate is less than $50.

Construction Sites - Roll Off
If an employee turns in a lead for a construction site and we place a box on the site, the employee will receive a $75 bonus. The contractor must be a new contractor - one we don't currently haul for.

Each time you turn in a lead, you will be given a pull tab. When your lead is turned in, it is reviewed by the sales people to be sure that they were not already aware of it. If this is the case, you will not be paid. Bonuses are paid after the customer pays their first bill.

New Employee Finders Fee Bonus

Recommend employment at Vasko to someone you know. If they are hired and remain with the company for 90 days, you will be paid $250 bonus.

Uniforms

All Vasko drivers are provided with uniform shirts, pants, coats and hats. Cintas provides laundry service for the shirts and pants. Employees must wash their own coats. For more information on uniforms, please review our company policy manual.
