    Driver's mates

    Hi.

    I work two days per week driving a delivery van, (large Transit), for a charity who depend on volunteers to be driver's mates, helping the driver with lifting heavy goods. The problem is that we don't have a full compliment of driver's mates to go round and the ones we do have are unreliable.

    The work is very exhausting without a mate to help.

    Can anyone tell me if there is a legal requirement for van drivers to have mates under the health and safety regulations?

    Thank's in anticipation.

    Re: Driver's mates

    I do not believe that there is any legal requirement under the Health and Safety regulations to have a drivers mate in the circumstances you have detailed.

    I do not provide advice by PM although I may on occasion ask you to send me documents this way but any related advice will be provided back on your thread.

    I do my best to provide good practical advice, however I do so without liability.
    If you have any doubts then do please seek professional legal advice.
