Good Friday query

Post by JoeWagg »

I'm on a twenty hour contract but more often than not work five or six days a week.
Anyway this week my manager told me I was working full time (five days).
So do I divide my twenty hours up between the four days I'll actually work due to the Good Friday and book overtime for anything over?

You will get paid your contracted hours. If you are reserve you day off will probably be fri so say your working mon tue weds thurs sat if your working five days.so if your 20hrs then depending on your start time you will work four hours then the rest is booked as overtime ,and if Friday is your day off then you are owed a day off .plus we get paid on Thursday this week :nana :nana
