Specialist relay driver supplement?

Post by sb9726 »

Hi I am wondering if there is a supplement for the specialist relay driver roles? Been a postman and collections driver for 5 years and looking at transferring any help would be appreciated thanks.

Well It was 21 quid for delivery about 10 for collections and specialist collections seems more responsible so I wondered if it had a better supplement.

Evening collections on 25 hours I got about 7 quid driving a 50 van, ford transit connect, at 33 hours I get 17ish for delivery supplement and no collection supplement as I do a hybrid collection and delivery. So is there any supplement for the specialist drivers?

Relay Drivers don't get the delivery supplement or any other special allowance. Though will get the £29.23 driving allowance if driving a 3.5t van eg lwb Sprinter or similar.

Is there no supplement at all driving the armoured vans that's what van it would be if there isn't then I guess I'm better off on regular collections , in regular vans, less risk same pay.
