I know when I worked over TT on bars etc people were dropping like fly’s by the end of the fortnight and nothing would get them to work more.

Two-lane Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Civil Servants are only working a 37 hour week. If there is a shortage of staff, maybe they ought to help out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Okells belly costs you £7,300 when you can get a Bushy's belly for only £2,300...with 2 years proper effort of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly you have to have the land then lots of infrastructure , showers , toilets , food etc and a safe environment. Then people to run it and keep it tidy and controlled . It’s a big commitment and only really needed once a year. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistercee Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 As usual the devil will be in the detail with this scheme but from the press articles it looks like: 1. Employers will be able to claim additional funding to pay staff who work more than 37 hours a week. 2. Staff working more than 37 hours a week would normally earn "overtime" at time and a half or 2 times hourly rate. 3. The taxpayer will be effectively funding the "overtime" payments. Or am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there not careful this is open to abuse. It was the same when I did it but I only worked part time doing 4 or 5 hours in the evening on a "casual" basis. These days anyone working 37 hours a week will be regarded as permanent staff and their contract of employment will cover pay for extra hours worked.
