The nmw ref period is a rolling two weeks, and works exactly the same as the 90 hrs driving rule. If for example you are paid £375 gross and do 60 hrs in one week, the following week they can only work you for 40 hours, unless they pay more for the extra hours

May be at you company 2 but can be up to 30 day. gov.uk/national-minimum-wag … nimum-wage

You are getting mistaken with pay frequency. You can be paid for any period up to 31 days. That’s has nothing to do with minimum wage. The minimum wage period is two weeks, to give flexibility to the employer for extenuating circumstances. For example, if you are on minimum wage for 12 hours, and on Friday the job goes ■■■■ up and you do a 15, the following week the company has 5 days to recoup that extra 3 hours, or pay it back as overtime.

If those trucks have English plates (rather than EU, Scotch, or Irish) then they’ll be busted.
If they are foreigners, a feeble attempt will be made to move them on - just for another foreign truck to take it’s place moments after the “enforcement presence” has left.
A cycle indeed… I wonder just how much time the NIMBYs have to waste on all this?

A hard Brexit could involve:-
(1) Charging foreign trucks £100 at the port of entry.

(2) Banning the carrying of more than 200 litres of fuel in any on-board tanks

(3) Full annual Road Duty payable for any haulier spending more than 30 net truck days per year on British Roads. (so you don’t get around it by swapping around which truck goes to Britain…)

(4) PPE to actually be worn by incoming drivers as the rest of us have to already here. NO more flip flops, no uniform “could be anybody” truckers, and most importantly - truckers must speak a good enough standard of English to understand all road signs, highway code, local bylaws etc. The same would be expected of UK truckers going abroad of course.

(5) Minimum wages to be fully enforced. The clock divisor to start at ferry disembarkation, and stop again when returning to the ferry back to the continent.

(6) No Pseudo “Diplomatic Immunity” when Eurotruckers don’t bother obeying our laws, don’t bother to pay our fines, and the UK authorities get no help whatsoever in recovering amounts payable from defaulting foreign truckers. Where are the huge fines and confiscation orders? - The laws are not being enforced, thanks to EU dictat to “go easy on what’s good for us, but clearly not for the UK”.

Money raised to be spent on Border Guards, Customs Posts, VOSA, Illegal Immigrant Detention Centers, - and of course Lots of shiny new secure parking/truckstop facilities for those few hauliers left who decide to “play it straight” be they British or Foreign in origin.

What a load of ridiculous twaddle, naturally you would be happy to see the same rules enforced for UK trucks travelling into Europe?

If Kent is planning to shut laybys, Colnbrook Council are planning the same.
They want width restrictions and a new route to access industrial areas.
Local residents are asked to take photos of parked lorries to send to the Council.

But anyway in Uk no overtime rate,just any amount of money what same or morw that NMW.

I didn’t say anything about overtime rates, there’s no legality around those. Just that you cannot receive less than the nmw for all hours worked, regardless of how you are oaid
