High Fuel Prices affect Haulage Firms
The current prices of the fuel in the UK are affecting many businesses and the economy too. A leading UK journalist spoke with the Freight Transport Association. He did so at the FTA Labour Conference event that was held recently. He spoke out about the high fuel prices that everyone is having to deal with and how this will most certainly affect the economy. He insisted that the government needs to take action in the UK to stop any economic down turn that might occur. Furthermore, he feels that the economy will not be able to recover from the last downturn if things continue as they are.
Mr. Wilson, the reporter, said it is imperative that companies and fleet drivers start petitioning the UK with more zeal. There was a petition already started by FairFuel UK which has asked for the fuel duty rises in 2012 to be eliminated. At the moment the petition has 95,000 signatures and it takes another 5,000 for the Parliamentary debate to occur.
Even for individuals that do not use the road or use it occasionally will be affected if the fuel duty increases and economic inflation comes into effect. When one thing is affected in an economy it usually starts to spread so that other areas are affected too. FairFuel UK has blamed the UK’s poor gross domestic product numbers as the reason for high tax on diesel and other fuel. It affects several businesses since fleet companies have to make up the extra expenses somehow. Fuel cards for small businesses are not enough to fix the issue, though they certainly help.
Any fuel cards like BP fuel cards will certainly help a company save a bit on fuel. Every little bit helps when it comes to saving money. If one can save enough and start investing it that would also go a long way towards strengthening a company. It is not an easy solution nor is it the only option. However, fleet companies need to start taking action if they want to lessen the burden in any way.
Keeping costs down is most important right now. Fuel may only continue to go up as evidence is indicating. Each company needs to be proactive when it comes to ensuring their company’s survival and to ensuring driver security. Drivers have just as much to lose by wasting fuel as companies have in spending too much on it.
