managers booking overtime

Post by flagaman »

Can anybody tell me if a manager can book over time for ips, as our manager does it about 4 times a week. The manager also has a partner who does ips aswell,it just seems a bit strange.

We will have to wait till a manager reads the posts we do have a few on here. However if they are in a salaried role then I can't see how they can.

Salaried roles are paid a fixed rate and not for the number of hours they work.

Mind you does not stop many doms falisfying figures,so far we have had a least 2 doms in 2 years who have done this .

they take it as time off but if it goes over a long period and they can't get to take the time owing then they get paid

You started a thread already on a similar subject. I think the answers will be the same however I will merge both.

who then questions their ot as they do with us
how can they justify performance issues if they have to do postmans work
and they must be pretty slow if its causing ot
ours also caught cut /tipping splitting mailsort preping pt duties and even prepin d2d to make sure ptimer does them
not on otime though they think its only to push us and get us out the door quicker :left:
much to my amusement when i point out nationally mgmnt want later starts :d'oh!
