IT HAS come to my notice that bus drivers are expected to work five-and-a-half hours without a break.

I think this is disgraceful and dangerous. Who will get the blame if someone walks in front of a bus after a driver has been working that long without a break?

This sort of attitude seems to be happening in most industries now and it’s about time employers realised that to get the best out of employees you have to treat them well.
