Night Shifts

Have been caught out starting a shift at 03.30 not realising this is classed as a night shift and gone over 10hr working hours max allowed and got infringement.

What happens if you say start a shift at 18.00 and finish at 06.00 is this classed as a night or day shift as it crosses 00.00 to 04.00.

All I want to do is drive! Help.

If your shift covers any period between midnight and 4am it is classed as a night work shift under WTD rules

Those can be opted out of by a workforce agreement

Authorities do not seem bothered about WTD infringements

Are you saying that you went over 10 hours working time or 10 hours shift time :question: - I assume the first from what you wrote

Thanks for that. I did 12 hours work time in a 15 hour shift. Getting rapidly peed off as it’s hard enough to earn a wage and keep within the gazillion regulations.
