Third party cleaning contracts are undertaken by Interserve FM for the central Department for Transport (DfT(C)), Maritime & Coastguard Agency (MCA), Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) and Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA). The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) third party cleaning contract is undertaken by Sodexo Ltd as part of a Private Finance Initiative Agreement with Telereal Trillium.<\/p>
<\/p>
The central Department for Transport, MCA, DVSA, VCA and DVLA all utilise fully encompassing Total Facilities Management contracts which can provide the following services: -<\/p>
Cleaning;<\/p>
Catering;<\/p>
Security;<\/p>
Reception;<\/p>
Grounds Maintenance;<\/p>
Planned Maintenance;<\/p>
Reactive Maintenance;<\/p>
Porterage;<\/p>
Reprographics and<\/p>
Post Room.<\/p>
<\/p>
Neither the central Department nor its executive agencies hold information on the earnings of outsourced workers. However, the Department for Transport Total Facilities Management contract with Interserve FM requires all staff employed by the service provider to be paid at least the National Living Wage. DVLA believe, following contact with Telereal Trillium, that no staff working on their contract receive below the National Living Wage.<\/p>"}
