• Drivers working for TNT Express have been awarded a 7% pay rise as part of the company's plan to boost basic pay ahead of the introduction of the Working Time Directive (WT11).
HGV drivers on trunking work received the best rise in percentage terms; drivers engaged in collection and delivery work got a smaller basic increase but coupled to a rise in bonus payments said to be worth £5 per week. A CA driver on collection and delivery work now gets £26840 in basic pay, while his trunking colleague earns £256.70 a week. There is no change to overtime rates.

However driver wages at the Atherstone-based parcels carrier don't look particularly good when compared to their co-workers: a skilled fitter earns £307 per week while a canteen assistant gets £227.
