Current HMRC guidance suggests that it will be ‘very rare’ that a commercial vehicle driver will be genuinely self-employed (regardless of the label given to the relationship) and Traffic Commissioners now scrutinise the arrangements operators have in place for engaging their drivers. So called ‘self-employed’ drivers are a major concern for HMRC and the Traffic Commissioners and can result in serious tax consequences as well as findings of loss of good repute.  This week the team discussed:self-employed drivers and the implications for operators;maintenance issues and Public Inquiries; andwhat operators need to know about certain ESG procurement requirements for entering into contracts with large companies.The content of this podcast is correct at the time of broadcasting and isn’t meant to be specific legal advice.  If you need advice, we recommend that you take proper legal advice for your individual situation.Please leave us a review and of course details of any areas you would like us to cover in future episodes.  We do read them and it helps others find our podcast.
