This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Raise The minimum wage to £16 for a class 1 driver and £14 for a class 2 driver.
The minimum wage of a Hgv driver should be higher, £10/£13 not good enough. Does not compete with the long hours we are forced to work and the non balanced work and family life.
Stop forcing drivers to work 13/15 hour days and start sorting out a work life balance for us.
