A d that’s where you total lack of understanding comes to the fore…

With comments like that sarcasm is all your statement is worth

A subby and paid worker are totally different  - have a think to see if you can work it out

You know I’m right , that’s why you answer with a sarcastic remark when I didn’t even mention your name. Tell us all then , if your worker is paid £10 an hour , how much is he getting per 3 bed semi if he’s doing 3 an hour. If I’m wrong, il hold my hands up , I have no problem with that at all

We got asked to do 150 shops  twice a week, I was the 4th company in the line   that  would be taken a piece of the pie,  we refused the work, the top company  who had the contract was getting  £18 per clean   I  doubt  the window cleaner at the end of the line doing the work got £7 per clean
Yes there is loads of money in National contact work  but sadly not for the guys doing the work.

How much do employees get from the multivan operators on here per clean/per house if they’re on £10 an hour?… maybe £3 per house if doing 3 semis an hour??
The simple answer is they get £10 per hour. I don’t really understand why anyone would want to try and second guess what someone else’s employees gets paid per house, too many variables involved.

So what's the difference between a subby and an employee......

Your subby takes on a job for a national chain of shops - this job has been passed down the line from a "national" where supposedly its price is - lets say £50 - the subby at the end of the line get  £7 (as already posted) - thats all he/she gets  end of

Now your PAYE worker is working away for a wage p/h and in the example it was £3 from a £10 semi - well that isn't the case at all - for a start they are getting 28 days holiday p/a (8 hr day = 224 hrs)  so on top of their £3 they get £2,240 per year without lifting a finger - they also don't deal with any costs - van, fuel, admin, taxes, advertising etc... - all this passes then by

The poor old self employed subby - has all this to take out of that £7 - and if he misses the clean gats nothing, and nothing travelling from job to job where the employee is being paid to drive from stop to stop - and of course the subby might have to wait 60 or 90 days for his money....

Now for the record -

I don't pay £10 - in fact in this area I pay better than 50% of businesses around here by 25% or more - this includes factory workers, shop workers, health carers, security people and all the season stuff that goes with the seaside - and the hours are pretty standard not late/night shifts OR Saturday/sunday working.

The guys also on top of an hourly rate a % bonus - this usually = to £1.25 p/h for regular window work and for our specialised stuff getting upwards of £100 notes

Not bad going for what is a relatively unskilled job

And just to add there’s so many people that say they employ but when you see what they are paying and hours they are guaranteeing it’s a joke.

Do you employ Nigel?
