Casual drivers/ holiday cover

Good evening
What do you guys do you holiday cover?? we only have one driver and he has asked for 2 week holiday, I have no problem with this and have already agreed to it, How do you guys deal with covering this? do you have a list of casual drivers ? use agency or park the truck up?

either a known casual or park it, as Winston said never before has so much damage been done by so few in such a short amount of time,

Just sub the work out .

Ask driver if any mates want a couple of weeks cover for him thats what my gaffer does i now a couple of lads who will do it no issues when get back clean and tidy and non smokers everyone happy

I will try that route and see what happens, cheers

subbing out work is a double edged sword, many a good earner and the drivers job have been enticed away from those that do not heed the gypsies warning.

I reckon this is the answer or ask your contacts and see if anybody knows of a reliable part-time driver.

i have asked the driver and he knows people but they are in full time work, I have had to advertise the position, I also don’t have a lot of contacts yet.

Where are you what type of work is it?
