=== Handling Orders ===

1. In emergency situations (Any code that is not blue, or green), paperwork for orders should be forgone for the sake of brevity. When the emergency is over a form should be created summarizing all the expedited orders made during the emergency to the best of cargo's ability.

2. If an order can be fulfilled instantly (printing something with the lathe, small quantities of materials, etc..) Then no paper work is required.

3. All other orders require valid paper work. To be valid the order must state...

The time it was made
Who is making the order
What the order is
Where/who it needs to be delivered to. ( if none is given the one making the order is assumed to be this. )

In the case of orders where the individual asking lacks the permissions to request the order, a stamp from the relevant department is required for the order be considered valid.

4. When a valid order is received it needs to be copied twice.

One copy should be stored as backup
One should be placed in a folder for the Quartermaster to review.
One should be returned to the one placing the order for their own records.

The order should then be entered fully into the cargo request computer. The request SHOULD NOT be approved. Technicians should never approve requests unless it is an absolute emergency.

5. When there is a pause in new orders, the folder containing them should be brought to the Quartermaster who will review and stamp each order as either approved or rejected. Approved and rejected orders must be saved for cargo's records. Once an order has been approved by the quartermasters it may be approved on the cargo request computer as well.

6. Once an order arrives as the station it is to be carefully handled and delivered to the person specified in the order. If the person is not present outside cargo the order is to be stored in cargo until they arrive to collect it.

7. Before handing over the order, the collector should be made to sign the attached label, which will be kept filed next to the original order as proof of successful delivery.

8. Non cargo personal should never be allowed to use the cargo request computer.

=== Cargo Technician ===

1. Technicians report directly to the quartermaster.

2. Technicians are responsible for cargo and for making sure all orders are fulfilled correctly and delivered within 20 minutes of being approved. Delays longer than this, without sufficient cause, can be considered negligence or incompetence.

3. Crates that are part of an order should not be opened. Instead their label should be checked for questions about their contents.

4. Secure crates should not be opened by force. An exception is made if ordered to do so by the head of the relevant department or captain during an emergency.

5. Issues with policy or employment should be directed to the quartermaster or head of personnel. A new micro nation named Cargonia should not be formed for any reason.

=== Quartermaster ===

1. All order forms which would require another departments stamp must also have the quartermasters stamp to be valid.

2. It is the Quartermaster's ultimate responsibility to make sure forms are correct and in order. Incorrect paperwork approved by the quartermaster can be considered negligence or incompetence.

3. The Quartermaster may not order security equipment without the express permission of the Head of security or the captain. In dire emergencies such as the confirmation of nuclear operatives this restriction is waved until the situation is under control.

=== Salvager ===

1. You report directly to the quartermaster, a communication line with them should be maintained at all times. Refusal to answer the quartermaster or failure to maintain communication with them can be considered negligence.

2. Cargo should be supplied with a stack of steel, plastic, and glass within 40 minutes of the shift start.

3. Dangerous expeditions can only be undertook with the express permission of the quartermaster. Going on unauthorized expeditions is ground for demotion.

4. Contraband found while on the job should not be used, except in extreme life or death situations. All contraband collected must be turned into Security upon re-docking with the station. Contraband should be transported in hand or in a secure crate.

??? 5. In an emergency you are allowed to defend cargo instead of instantly seeking help from security. ''Not certain on this but feels like if anyone has the right to fight other than sec, its Salvage.''
