Travelling time is worked out by the distance from the office in a straight line.

Have a look at the JIB handbook.

Hi Ian
thanks for the link i have worked out i will get around £20.00 for a 120 mile each way round trip does that sound about right?

120 miles will take you 3-4 hours. so that's beween £5 and £6.66 per hour. not exactly decent wages.

takes 2.5 hours to cover 120 miles have done the journey every day last week leave at 05.30 and arrive on site at 08.00 for bacon butties with cup of tea .we do get lodgings paid for with food if we want but prefure to come home

You only get travel expenses one way i.e to site.

Can't remember but think you wil find that if the job is 30 miles away the figure quoted is for travelling there and back as well as travelling xpenses.
