Reduced weekly rest

NorbertV:
Thanks for the answer.
So in 2 weeks time I must do least 1 full weekly rest and can do another reduced or full one. OK?
Week 1
Mon off (45 hours weekly rest)
Tue off (45 hours weekly rest)
Wed on
Thu on
Fri on
Sat off (reduced weekly rest)
Sun on
Week 2
Mon on
Tue on
Wed on
Thu on
Fri on
Sat off (reduced weekly rest)
Sun on

Is that legal above? If so, do I have to compensate both of the reduced weekly rests.

To be sure we would need to know what weekly rest period you had in the week or possibly weeks before week 1.

As long as the regular weekly rest period at the start of week 1 can be counted for week 1 that’s legal, and you do not need to compensate for the reduced weekly rest period on the first Saturday because you’ve also had a regular weekly rest period in the same week.

By the way, in week 2 you do 6 consecutive shifts so make sure there is no more than 144 hours from the start of the first shift on Sunday to the end of the shift on the Friday, though if you’re on days it won’t be a problem.
