Whats the minimum wage £6.19? So for an extra 40p you get to drive dangerous chemicals round the country. That is pretty shocking, i thought nobbies was quite a decent rate of pay.
This is what the RHA should be fighting against. Not galavanting around various gala nights and other such ■■■■■■■■. I know people will say they are only for operators but ■■■■ me this one needs gripping if they think that is right and fair.
And if ND come back saying the pay is like that cos the rates aren’t there then that allegedly makes it even more an RHA issue if they are for operators.
Why doesn’t an industry journalist ask a few pertinent questions of this firm as to why they feel this is a fair wage in their view? And then compare to other firms within the same niche with better conditions and ask how/why the difference.
That is less an hour than my 16 year old nephew gets for sitting in q shed selling tickets to car drivers for a car park at a beach here in pembrokeshire ! Fact …
PMSL!
