Caerleon:
If they are so desperate, someone local looking for work should send them a CV. With a cover letter -
Hello, I am looking for work and my min rate of hourly pay will be £15ph this is non-negotiable, I can speak English, understand a map, bridge heights, and can start tomorrow, if this is of interest to you please call me on…
If they are that desperate, they will call and pay you!
Covering cover and CV would be promptly filed in the round basket followed by them picking up the phone to the RHA begging for their £9/hr flip-flops back.
Days £13.50
Early start days (pre 04:00) £14.50
Nights £14.50
Weekend/BH Days £15.00
Weekend/BH Nights £16.00
4on4off Days £525 (averaged out so this is paid every week)
4on4off Nights £565 (averaged out so this is paid every week)
Extra shifts (4on 4off) Days … Unknown to my mate at this time.
Extra shifts (4on 4off) Nights £192 per shift
Night out £25
They do take 45 mins per day off of hourly paid drivers (rumour has it that this is being looked at being dropped but no factual evidence to back that up)
Also apparently this is across ALL depots so all Owens drivers on the same money now no matter what depot they run out from.

3rd pay rise this year and still about £4/hr short.
Still paying a day rate as well
What mug works for those rates these day might as well commute to Bristol and get the extra pay

Are they paying the same n Llanelli as Newport now? Interesting. So even the seven or so agencies in Llanelli and Cross Hands couldn’t find no mucgs to do it.
I’m out of the General haulage game now anyway. Back on the milk next week. 34000 4on,-4,off, 12 hour shifts. Home every day.
