• 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.


Traffic forecasts and any anticipated variations will be shared and reviewed at weekly resourcing meetings. A process should be agreed to deal with unforeseen fluctuations in traffic and/or resourcing issues. This process should also include how a Manager or an employee should request a variation of hours should this be necessary and how reciprocal recovery of the time will take place within the individuals working week. Any variations should be logged and reviewed at the weekly resourcing meeting
good times, bad times you know I've had my share
