Re: Banking hours?
The rep is right.
Either they pay the 30 minutes or you put in a grievance.

The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Re: Banking hours?
Your rep is right
They cannot bank hours from one day to cover OT from another.
They think they can because the flexibility says they can ask you to work over 30 minutes 1 day and owe you that time later in the week. They are trying it on, basically when you suggested you would work over because of the tyre problem then they should have suggested the flexibility clause at that point. They cannot do it retrospectively as there is nothing in the agreement to say that they can.

Re: Banking hours?
Yes it is banking hours and no they can't do it.
Next saturday tell them you won't complete because you want to finish 30 mins early so you can go for a pint, and that you'll give them the 30 mins back on monday.
