[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 7803139, member: 946"] 30 quid an hour is a good wage. Its just a headline price though, like most piece work. The very top can get it some of the time. Someone that motivated could make more doing something else though, that something could also be fulltime, guaranteed hours. I've nothing against bringing in seasonal workers, I just thing the line describing seasonal is getting a bit blurred. Dairy farmers claiming they want access to cheaper labour being one example, that's not seasonal, same with a lot of jobs, meatworkers, Ag contractors etc. Many of those jobs could/should be fulltime, in which case they should have to compete for labour like other industries and give staff job security.
