Hello all,
I was wondering if someone may be able to explain how drivers hours laws work for a train driver in the UK.
I currently work in the road freight industry and we must ensure drivers do not exceed an average of 48 hours per week over a 26 week reference period. Does it work in a similar way? Just with it averaging 35 hours? Also what are the rules on breaks and rest periods? And what reference period do you guys average your hours over? I am guessing POA is non existant
Many thanks in advance
