Drivers fear trucks will be repossessed

YET another construction materials company has been accused by its haulage drivers of giving them insufficient work to make the repayments on €150,000 trucks bearing its livery.

Following reports last week of a similar rift between drivers and Roadstone Wood, drivers at Cemex have said that despite the fact they own their own vehicles they are only allowed to drive for Cemex.

They say the company used to take over the repayments if the driver could not work for any reason or if there was insufficient work for them. However, that situation had now changed.
