Quick question, am currently doing home delivery driving(3.5t vans)36hrs a week…
My hours are

After not having much success at getting a permanent class C position anywhere due to being a massive nooooobie so have decided to do some agency work to get some experience. How many days/hours a week can I legally do? Sorry if this has been asked many times before.

As long as you have wed +thu off every other week with at least one day off on the weeks where the two days off are not taken with a max of 6 days work between those days off then you are good to go
Minimum 9 hours off between any two working shifts
Van driving counts as other work for the EU regs and needs recording as such
You can either drive every other Wednesday and Thursday …
Mon - 8-6
Tue - 8-6
Wed - Driving (Can start at 3am)
Thu - Driving
Fri - 8-6
Sat - Off (Reduced weekly rest)
Sun - 8-6
Week 2
Mon - 8-6
Tue - 8-6
Wed - Off
Thu - Off (Regular weekly rest)
Fri - 8-6
Sat - Off
Sun - 8-6 (6 days till next weekly rest if going back to Week 1)
Back to Week 1
Or every Saturday …
Mon - 8-6
Tue - 8-6
Wed - Off
Thu - Off
Fri - 8-6
Sat - Driving (Can start at 3am)
Sun - 8-6
Repeat
Not seeing a way of working more than 2 days every fortnight ■■
If you value your weekends I’d stick to the first option.

Sound advice cheers Terry. Think I’ll go for a couple of days a fortnight for now and see how I get on
