Well, thx for the head-up, it is good to know, however UK law are different from us, more under LTA guidelines and such. I reckon Grab, Gojek, Taxi & other related private hired drivers are more self-employed whereby G provide rental claim relief and the relief of funds during the phase 2 pandemic and recently petrol tax relief funds to this group of drivers. We can't comment on UK Supreme court since every countries has their own set of laws to abide with regards to min.wages . there will never be agreed on the lower income min.wage scheme . If we look carefully on classified advertisement under Chauffeur/ drivers job hunt, be expected to work 5.5 days, at least 9-10hrs and expected to work OT . . . what was the average salary ? a miserable $1.8K-2.2K ... we are not talking about despatch or delivery services here . With petrol prices rocketing high just after end of CNY 2021, it is very difficult for private hired and taxi deriver to sustain let alone survive the trade. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
