if you don’t do the hrs, ultimately you won’t be able to drive. No driving means no job. No job means no quality time with the family. It’s a vicious circle.

well you should have taken a day off during the week to sit it and paid for it yourself and used up a days holiday. It’s the drivers responsibility to pay for Cpc training it’s your card. Company’s don’t have to pay for it or pay you for the day. But some good company’s do pay for it and pay you for the day but that’s up to the company policy.AndryUrman wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2024 4:35 pmIt was time wasted to me especially at weekends where I could spend it with my family and friends not in a classroom for 8 hoursCOLESHO wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2024 4:31 pmGet over it, because you don't sound like you haveAndryUrman wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2024 4:28 pm

Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
Your getting the cpc for free that technically you should be paying for as the driver, I’d shut your mouth and be happy with it.
Otherwise do it in your own time but also at your own cost.

Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
no because without it I’ll earn zero per hour mate, my responsibility to get it to be able to earn.
Drivers want paying a days wage to do the cpc let’s say that they get £150 a day that’s roughly £170 cost to employer
£50 for a cpc.
£220 per man to put them through, how long would it take them to earn that £220 it’s cost to put you through it?
Hauliers going to the wall every day yet drivers want more and more and more.
And before it’s said that rates need to go up, that means the cost of everything goes up too.
Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
can tell by these comments none of these people know you used to run your own successful haulage firm

Why should they it is your personal CPC
Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
You could always say no and pay for it yourself and take a day's holiday each year to do it. It is a drivers CPC after all. If they are paying for the course for your personal card then it seems fair to me.

Quite right there paying for something you yourself should keep upto

We pay for our staff and do during the week
Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
Our company pays for the course but as the card is yours they expect you to do the course in your own time. Nobody has complained
Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
We do ours at weekend. We pay for the course but the driver get the DCPC for free.
Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
Driver CPCs are a drivers own responsibility so the employer doesn’t need to pay you.
Some do and some don’t.
We don’t pay our employees for their time doing them but we do pay for the courses.

Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
The company I work for pays for cpc courses, it’s a day off the road and an early finish. That’s the difference between a good employer and one at the opposite end one that doesn’t even pay for it.
Your example of them paying for it but in a rest day isn’t great but it could be worse if you also had to pay for it.

Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
We pay drivers to do the course in work time, employers duty to provide training.
Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
wrong it is the drivers responsibility to ensure they have completed 35 hours training within a 5 year period. It is the employer’s responsibility to ensure it has been completed.
Most companies pay for it now but that isn’t the law.

look at it this way, all other training is paid for screwing a few quid off your staff for a course they need to do their job is just tight. The driver only needs his card to work. Wouldn’t expect staff to pay for anything else.

That’s safety training!! Read what it says.

When you know exactly what you’re talking about then you should comment otherwise false or incorrect information gets mistaken and it evolves into a bigger issue.
Ultimately the DRIVER is responsible to keep his own cpd via the DCPC current and up to date. Employers have taken it upon themselves to kindly pay for it and some even pay the driver to do so!!
My initial point was to educate those complaining that it isn’t a companies responsibility at all.
Ps I don’t hide is open as I have nothing to hide and have been in the transport industry for over 25 years as a driver and worked my way up to senior management so I am suitably qualified to comment.
Re: My old company I use to work for do there CPC courses at weekends and they don't paye you for it right or wrong?
And a bespoke cpc module revolving around around strapping, loading numerous types of loads, fire safety etc etc isn’t safety training ? A driver has an incident and gets injured and puts a claim in , first thing a solicitor asks is “ Have you been trained ? “ I think the only course relevant to driving that you couldn’t call safety training is the driving hours and regs. I do know what I’m talking about unlike some transport mangers I’ve come across who talk utter shi** . Example, running on print offs with defective tacho card, apparently I can run from day 3 as that’s the day I notified dvla so that would give me 17 days in effect Erm, no, it’s from the first print out. Then I’ve to sign a section 88 as I’m running on print outs Again talking crap. Be sat and listened to driver trainers, DCPC trainers and think you don’t know what your on about and putting drivers at risk. Best DCPC trainer I know of, peach27, knows his stuff and he’s precise. You go on his courses and you’ll learn something. I’m pretty sure it’s him who said he thinks along with a lot of officials in the sector think employers should pay for it. We can argue all day about it, I’ve pointed out most DCPC courses aren’t specific to driving but revolve around safety so surely that comes under the requirement that employers should be paying for it. I suppose it comes down to what type of transport manager you are, the best ones I’ve worked with and definitely would again get the higher management to budget for this training. Also you know nothing about me or what courses I’ve attended and completed, far more intense than some of these jokers are putting out as DCPC courses.Halera wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2024 5:09 pmThat’s safety training!!

You have again missed the original pointtimagel wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2024 5:10 pmAnd a bespoke cpc module revolving around around strapping, loading numerous types of loads, fire safety etc etc isn’t safety training ? A driver has an incident and gets injured and puts a claim in , first thing a solicitor asks is “ Have you been trained ? “ I think the only course relevant to driving that you couldn’t call safety training is the driving hours and regs. I do know what I’m talking about unlike some transport mangers I’ve come across who talk utter shi** . Example, running on print offs with defective tacho card, apparently I can run from day 3 as that’s the day I notified dvla so that would give me 17 days in effect Erm, no, it’s from the first print out. Then I’ve to sign a section 88 as I’m running on print outs Again talking crap. Be sat and listened to driver trainers, DCPC trainers and think you don’t know what your on about and putting drivers at risk. Best DCPC trainer I know of, peach27, knows his stuff and he’s precise. You go on his courses and you’ll learn something. I’m pretty sure it’s him who said he thinks along with a lot of officials in the sector think employers should pay for it. We can argue all day about it, I’ve pointed out most DCPC courses aren’t specific to driving but revolve around safety so surely that comes under the requirement that employers should be paying for it. I suppose it comes down to what type of transport manager you are, the best ones I’ve worked with and definitely would again get the higher management to budget for this training. Also you know nothing about me or what courses I’ve attended and completed, far more intense than some of these jokers are putting out as DCPC courses.Halera wrote: ↑Sun Sep 01, 2024 5:09 pm
That’s safety training!! Read what it says. DCPC is not safety training it is continuous development training and the £8.75 is just the upload fee the training cost is more.
When you know exactly what you’re talking about then you should comment otherwise false or incorrect information gets mistaken and it evolves into a bigger issue.
Ultimately the DRIVER is responsible to keep his own cpd via the DCPC current and up to date. Employers have taken it upon themselves to kindly pay for it and some even pay the driver to do so!!
My initial point was to educate those complaining that it isn’t a companies responsibility at all.
Ps I don’t hide is open as I have nothing to hide and have been in the transport industry for over 25 years as a driver and worked my way up to senior management so I am suitably qualified to comment.

It definitely isn't the employers duty. It's a personal qualification and a personal responsibility.
I pay for my drivers modules as a courtesy but I expect them to be done in their own time.

Another way to look at it you don’t have a driver cpc you don’t have a job simples we do ours in our own time and company pays for it this also includes lunch. Our company does make sure all the drivers are free on the days that they would like booked for it.
