SELF-EMPLOYED DRIVER WORK
Understand the work before you accept it.
Self-employed courier work is different from an employed driving job. Check how the rate is calculated, who provides the vehicle, what costs you carry and when payment is made.
- Check the engagement — understand whether you are genuinely operating independently.
- Price the whole day — include mileage, fuel, waiting, loading and repositioning.
- Match the vehicle — confirm size, equipment, access and insurance requirements.
- Review payment terms — know the rate, deductions and payment date before starting.
