    Hiya

    I’m probably only going to look back at the first page of responses in 30-60mins (if I get any) but just want to quick insight from the collective mind to see what the current going hourly rate of unskilled labour is. In the South East for what it’s worth.

    i.e. rather heavy lifting of stone slabs, moving stuff around, cleaning up a site (tidying up a house after some construction works), inside and outside

    Would £10 and hour be about right?

    depends .

    do you want to employ someone through the books to do it or do you want to bung some one downt pub some cash to do the job or self employed.

    on the books ill be surprised if its more than 7-8 quid an hour. on account of NI and other payments on their behalf.

    if your bunging someone some cash then 10 quid an hour sounds fair

    if they are self employed and you want them to do some work you will be paying for the whole shooting match. probably closer to the region of 20-25 quid an hour.

    Last year, I got paid £80 a day (or £400 per week) for site clearing work in the Midlands.

    Id say £10ph-£12ph cash is about right any less for a decent worker would be unfair IMO. 😉
