30min Flex?

Post by dolphinsweremonkeys »

Could somebody let me know if it was agreed in the 2010/beyond or even the 2007 agreement that 30 minutes flexibility is the max that your dom can ask you to do in any 1 week?

Thanks.

its not a max but your weekly hours should not change so if he ask for 30 minutes on 3 days he owes you 90 minutes and it must be paid back in same week

P&M 2007 agreement:

Variation of hours – Where necessary, for example when traffic
volumes are unexpectedly high or resourcing issues arise, individuals
may be asked and may themselves request to vary their duty times by
up to 30 minutes on a swings and roundabouts basis. Again, individual
circumstances will be taken into account and total weekly contractual
hours would not change.

and only if you agree to it, you don't have to do it if you don't want to.

personally I wouldn't, getting your time back is like getting blood from stone.
