Query regarding night working

Hi all , I’m a class 1 driver and a little confused I currently work night trunking starting at 6pm and I’m not finishing until 6am or 8 am latest but as my understanding was night working was only 8 hours ? Can someone shed a bit of light on this for me thanks in advance

If a mobile worker does any work between the hours of 00:00 to 04:00 (01:00 to 05:00 for PCV drivers) he/she is classed as a night worker.

For the RT(WT)R 2005 night workers are limited to 10 hours working time, working time does not include breaks or POA.

The 10 hour limit for night workers can be extended up-to the same as day workers with a workforce agreement.

Ah sorted then, alls well thanks again for the quick reply [THUMBS UP SIGN]
