Revision Pending

Post by felixblues »

We are in the process of starting our revision(indoor/outdoor)and i wondered what the policy was for overtime.I have been told by the union that between 8/10% of total office hours should be allowed for O/T. Howerever, our manager disagreed and stated that no amount of O/T was guaranteed. Can anyone clarify what the position is regarding O/T during the revision process.

I'd hazard a guess and say with a new revision there will be plenty of overtime if you want it!

It should be down to the unit to decide.
The lower your model week the greater the amount of o/t on offer to flex up throughout the year.
More o/t = fewer f/t contracts.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
