Asset protection - keeping your hauling ships and cargo alive - is the most important cornerstone of being a successful hauler. Due to our extremely wide range of services, ships, and collaterals, Pushers are expected to be experts in all areas of hauler asset protection. If there is any area you are uncertain about, take the time to consult with a more experienced Pusher. | Asset protection - keeping your hauling ships and cargo alive - is the most important cornerstone of being a successful hauler.

Risk is part of EVE Online. No matter what you are doing or where you are there is always some risk in Eve, even if it is very minimal. Risk is an unavoidable component of hauling and one reason why clients turn to PushX for their hauling needs. As such, Pushers are expected to be experts at assessing and handling the risks a contract may include. | |||
== Minimizing Risk == | |||
The most effective way to minimize risk while hauling is to follow the best practices of asset protection and be competent in the essential techniques used by each ship type. Pushers are also encouraged to self-assess when they may be too tired - or otherwise impaired - to haul safely. | |||
== Refusing a Contract Due to Risk == | |||
Hauler safety is PushX's top priority and Pushers will NEVER be penalized for refusing to accept or run a contract due to '''significant''' risk. | |||
*Pushers are expected to consult a PushX Senior, Manager, or Director when they believe a contract is too dangerous for them to complete. | |||
*Pushers are expected to have concrete - not anecdotal - evidence that a contract is dangerous. This can include recent kills on [https://zkillboard.com/ zKillboard], [http://evemaps.dotlan.net Dotlan] statistics, live footage, or in-game scouting. | |||
*Significant risk does not include routine, circumventable risks such as a freighter gank fleet in Uedama. | |||
*Inexperience with a particularly dangerous route is a valid risk; however, Pushers are expected to seek to improve and overcome a lack of experience. | |||
*It is always appropriate to ask a more experienced Pusher for advice. | |||
*Approval to skip a contract applies specifically to that contract at that time. This does not automatically apply to future contracts on the same route. | |||
