Irinatrans

Irinatrans, a Polish trucking company based in Hannover, operates through systematic driver exploitation and illegal practices. Drivers report severe payment issues—all compensation is handled off-the-books in cash at management's discretion with no banking records, contracts, or legal protection. The company operates an illegal dual-tachograph scheme where drivers work using their own card plus another worker's card without employment, creating serious deportation risks. Recruitment is fraud-based: the firm hires drivers for non-existent company vehicles, then distributes them to German subcontractors without proper documentation. Vehicle quality is poor, with persistent maintenance issues including panel damage and error codes that management refuses to address. Driver retention is catastrophic—workers from Greece, Belarus, and Ukraine leave within months. Management is described as deceptive and coercive, using commission-based recruitment and arbitrary dismissals without compensation. Overall, drivers characterize this as a predatory operation that prioritizes illegal profit over worker safety and legal compliance.
