Hours of work

Our drivers must be willing and flexible to work various shifts, that may include weekends, early morning and late-night shifts.

A large portion of shifts available for full-time drivers are worked as split shifts. Split shifts work by providing two portions of work to cover peak service times morning and afternoon. The hours for each shift can vary but will generally require you to work between the following times :

Outside of these hours you can leave the depot to head home or run errands, or you can choose to stay at the depot and take advantage of our driver facilities.

There are also some straight shifts that may be available with shifts starting at varied times of the day, from morning, afternoon or evenings.

All depots operate seven days per week with Sunday and public holiday shifts being voluntary overtime
