Revision 1 in 4

[lin1]

Hi
What is a one in four?
I believe there could be a vote on what days we do. One of the options is a one in four. Does this mean we work 4 longer days and get the fifth off? So if we work Monday to Thursday longer days we get Friday-Sunday off??

[Woody Guthrie]

In most cases it means one Saturday off in four.

Ah right thank you

[IloveMYredTROLLEY!]

The rota for 1 in 4 at my depot is...
Wk 1 Mon
Wk 2 Tues
Wk 3 Weds
Wk 4 Sat

While they get less Saturdays than those on 1 in 3, I think most of them liked getting 1 in 4 Weds off, which certainly before Covid was usually the busiest day by far... Not so much over the past ~18 months.

I always thought one in four meant a week off each month? You start earlier and sort. Go out later on a bigger round to fill Your hours for 3 weeks and have the 4th week off.

We've been told we are going 1 in 6, 1 in 4 is against H&R apparently! A real backwards step in my opinion as when I started we were finished by 1pm at the latest, new times will be 15.00-15.30.

Sounds like Your being bullsh1tted to Me . What can the difference be between the two?

Something to do with the hours needed to cover floating duties. We will have to challenge it and probably go to disagreement. New comers who have only known 1 in 4 or 4 day weeks are in for a shock!

Hereford are a 1 to 6, ie work 6 days a week for 5 weeks straight, 6th week off.

Technically that's 1 in 5.
Just to add more fusion to the confusion.
