Overtime

Post by angela smith »

I have just had an interview for a part-time position 28 hours per week. Is it possible to get overtime every week to supplement my hours?

Hi Angela, overtime is not a guarantee, it will depend on various factors, sick absence, annual leave, mail volume to name a few. what you will have to do is volunteer on a daily basis to take any overtime that is available on that day, you may also volunteer to work your day off, just inform your line manager or however puts the resources into sorting the office overtime.
Cheers

If your still able to walk after 28 hours, yes there is usually plenty available.
