help needed with attendance hours, new to full time

Post by maximus12 »

I've just been put on 39 hours and I'm confused about my finish times. I know I start at either 6am or 6:45. Are the finish times on the duty sheet the times I go by? They don't seem to add up to 39 hours but I've heard something about getting an extra day off every so many weeks. Can anyone explain it to me?

7hr 48 min per day at a guess 5 days a week

6am start = 13:48 finish
6.45 start = 14:38 finish

Nope, I certainly can't explain it to you. I'm baffled. I ignore all the times on the duty sheet, as they change randomly, and make no sense. Simply get your start and finishing times in writing, and stick top them.
