What the petition asks
Force a fair wage into law so drivers of the bus and coach industries feel appreciated for the roles and responsibilities they have.
Bus and coach drivers have traditionally had low wages compared to HGV and other responsible driving positions, when in reality driving up to 100+ passengers in some cases is a lot more to deal with than a lorry full of pallets.
Without the support of a minimum wage that's fair private companies with continue to pay low rates.
