[:0] very interesting point Invisible man...
I would say though that 74 companies that now advertise / use BAJR and they are all complying with the pay scales. Now if there are companies that do not appear on the BAJR list (there are a few of you out there!!) and they do not pay the levels that are set on BAJR... then may I suggest that people do not work for them! At the moment there is a desparate need for Diggers and Field workers.. so use that and work for only those that pay BAJR levels... that way the companies that pay under will be forced to match the wages or have only the 83 year old one legged blind diggers to choose from.
If you know a unit that does pay fair and should be included on the BAJR list of Who's Who in contractors... get in touch... its free its easy and it gets them seen... they do not even need to advertise.
All it takes is a commitment to pay fair, have a policy on H&S, etc and uphold the IFA Code of Conduct (you do not even have to be a member to uphold it!!)
New topic [?] Should archaeology be commercial????
