2 weeks agoLabour must back delivery drivers sacked by DPD, former cabinet minister says
DPD, which reported pre-tax profits of nearly 200m last year and raised the pay of its highest-paid director by 90,000 to 1.5m including bonuses, told self-employed drivers it was unilaterally cutting their delivery rates. The drivers said the move would cost them about 6,000 each per year or up to 8,000 for those who take on extra deliveries at Christmas.
