Open Compulsory minimum wage for class 1 HGV drivers of £18 per hour

Created by david j jones
Closes on

We call on the Government to set minimum wage of £18 per hour for HGV class 1 drivers, due to the high risks these drivers are exposed to and the risk of fines. We also believe it would improve safety of others on the road.

We think a minimum wage of £18 per hour would better reflect the pressure and stress HGV drivers are under.
