Hourly rate

I attended a business development lunchtime gathering for small business owners. The guest speaker briefly referred to white van man, electricians, plumbers and the like. As self-employed individuals who desire to be earning around 35-38K he claimed they should be charging £43.60 per hour. Built into this would be the the emoluments taken for granted in many employed situations where holiday pay, sick pay and pension contributions are standard.

    Round about where I live, the local council applied to the High Court for an injunction against some environmental protesters. The council's outside QC charged a daily rate of £15,000 (no that's not a typo). And that didn't include the costs of the other solicitors and support staff involved in preparing and presenting the council's case.


    Perhaps we all chose the wrong career paths!
