I’m sure many of you are fed up of these questions however i’m a tad confused.
I was always under the impression that you could work for:
10hrs with a 45 min break every 4.5hrs or split into a 15min and 30 min break for 2 days of the week
9hrs with 45min break every 4.5hrs or split into a 15 min and 30 min break for the rest of the week.
Taking in the maximum hours you are aloud to work a week.
However i keep seeing threads about people working 15hrs a day, how can that be■■?
Many Thanks
Paul
You have only mentioned DRIVING time - what about OTHER WORK and POA - these would be used to make up a 15 hour day.
Very simple example…
start 6am
other work 1hour
drive 4.5hours
break 45mins
drive 1hour
POA 2 hours
drive 2.5 hours
POA 1.5 hours
drive 1hour
other work 45mins
finish 9pm
15 hour day (9 hours driving + 1hour 45mins other work counts as 10hours and 45mins towards the AVERAGE 48 hour week)
If I got this wrong coffeeholic will take great delight in shooting me

POA, thats sounds just like what I’ve been doing at work for the past couple of weeks after closing the plant down that I was running.
Asolutley sod all to do all day but sit drinking coffee and read the paper. I’ve always had a good work ethos and find it very difficult, but if all goes well I should have my redundancy confirmed soon with a definate finish date, I’ve suggested " gardening leave" but me being a lowly Civil Servant they wouldn’t wear it.
