£7.50 an hour time and a half after 9 £20:00 a night out.

My m8 works there, been there 7 year seems to like it. Left alone to get on with it. Mostly taut work with the odd bit of flat/R&S

Been going longer than I care to remember, mostly Volvo and Scania with the odd DAF

where are you based reefer.

I worked for them out of Bedwas on the aluminium contract.Easy company to work for, only problem I had was they docked you £10 a day for breaks, and seeing £50 a week going from your wages hurt.

Was that recent chunk ?

What was the hourly rates ?

Would of been 2005/6, they had the Hydroaluminium contract. Think it was £7.50 normal time, £10 overtime plus drop bonus. Think they have lost the contract or Hydro took it in house.

I was on about the same time and don’t remember the rate being as high as that, thought it was £6 sumut. Could be getting confused with Ellis Morgan though.

Certainly don’t remember any drop bonus, or getting back on a friday :stuck_out_tongue:

Still had trailers in Hydro end last year.

i passed hydro today and they had allison trailers in there
