Top Trucker Tip that one!

another answer is, make all drivers self employed. that way the good drivers could diktate their own wages on experience abbility to do the job profecionally.

what i find working for different companys is the bad ones get paid the same as the good ones.

Matty72:
Ltd company not vat registered and below taxable income for paye purposes

Your missing a trick with the VAT, have a look @ the flat rate scheme, money for old rope :wink:

Even sticking to the standard vat scheme Matty72 can still make a few ££’s with the vat with the initial start up costs of Ltd Co then when the basics are in place switch to the flat rate scheme

Cheers guys, am on with it :smiley:

RETIRED!!!
So I can sit here telling everyone how the job SHOULD be done. Just like all my bosses have been doing for the last fifty years.
Life’s suddenly a whole lot better!

Full-time PAYE! :grimacing:

26

O/O as a sole trader with my own tractor.

I am PAYE with an agency. They told me when I signed up that I would have to get an umbrella at 12 weeks. It’s now been about 16 weeks and no one has said anything, so I’m certainly not going to point it out.

Have you been working for the same company for the last 16 weeks? If so your rights changed after 12 weeks and they need to be very careful what they do.

Yep, same company, same run.

I was a Ltd Company when I worked for Adams but after they went bust, the agency I signed up with wouldn’t allow me to continue. Now I’m PAYE (and voted that way), as I went to work for a week with my current firm via the agency. The firm offered me full time but again, didn’t want me to be anything other than an employee, so closed the company. On the whole, being Ltd paid better, reduced my taxes considerably, but I would have had probs with HMRC as I would be working for one firm 99% of the time. :unamused:

32

I put other.
LTD company, VAT registered.
Sole trader, Not VAT registered.
and PAYE from time to time.

You do no about the AWR and your rights after 12 weeks.

Yes, I have done some research. I think the only way it will affect me is that I will be asking for holiday pay when I leave.

Company employed Blue Eyed Driver :wink:

36

Not only holiday pay you get the same number of holiday days as there own drivers and the same pay and bonus. The agency will try to get you to go self employed or on regulation 10 but you don’t have to now your 12 weeks are up.
