[Misc] Clocks going backwards this weekend..

[Quinney]

Would you expect to get paid the extra hour, as a result of the clocks going back, if you were working a night shift?

If paid hourly, yes.

If salaried, then presumably the hour was already 'credited' when the clocks changed in March ?

Was told this when trying to cheekily asking for that golden hour payment

I've always wondered this

Yes (and I am salaried). My employer takes the view that if you do the extra hour you get paid for it but when the clocks go forward we're not expected to make the time up. The shift pattern I work (5 week rotating with one of the weeks being nights) means it's unlikely that the same team will work two clock changes in a row.

No but you will get an hour and 8 minutes response time to boost the statistics

Spot on.

How would early leavers cope if the clocks went back at KO time?

Always let us go home the hour early where I work.

That’s what I’d expect most businesses would do. I’m working this weekend but didn’t work the weekend when clocks went forward. We’re expected to do the extra hour for no extra payment or time in lieu.

The response times are so far out that not even an extra hour would help much. [emoji106]

Yay!! My favourite weekend of the year!

Got 2 x hour backs this week as we head back up towards Italy from the Greek Islands. Bonus, more sleep.

Yes you should get paid but then does it not even out when the clocks change in late March?

I wasn't working that shift when they went forward so got no benefit.

The club thinks the clocks are going back a day from today it seems, our Sunday match is now being played on Saturday.

When I worked nights (watches in the Navy) the morning watch came in half an hour early, so we only had to stay 30 minutes extra following a 10 hour watch. The morning watch was 8am to 12.30pm so an extra 30 mins to them, just made it 5 hours.
It was the same every March and October.

Not done shift work for 10 years, but if paid hourly you get paid for it. If salaried then officially you worked it for nothing else. However what we did was split the last hour on both clock changes between us.

Not sure about the clocks going "backwards" but I'd expect hours worked to include all hours worked whether spring forward or fall back.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I'm on nights tomorrow. We'll get paid the extra hour, and they don't expect us to make it up when the reverse happens in spring.

A ten hour Saturday night shift instead of the standard nine, when it's payday for most people, and also the nearest weekend to Halloween too. It's going to be SMASHING, I'm sure.
