Maximum Weekly Working Time. The definition of weekly maximum weekly working time laid out within the General ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Council agreement is as follows: Working time is any time when an employee is working, at their employer’s disposal and carrying out activities or duties’. For time to be classed as working time all of the above three elements must be satisfied. Such time may or may not, happen to coincide with the time for which an employee receives pay or with the time during which the employee may be required to work under their contract of employment. Working time will also include any time taken for any relevant training; civic and public duties; health and safety; and trade union duties plus any additional time which may be covered by this collective agreement. Employees will not normally be expected to work more than 48 hours in any seven day period calculated over an averaging period of 17 weeks. This reference period may be extended to up to 26 weeks by agreement of the Partnership Forum. Working time is calculated exclusive of meal breaks, except when, with the prior agreement of their manager, an employee is required to work during meal times. An example of this would be where an employee is obliged to participate in a working lunch. Where an employee takes work home, time worked will only count as working time if the work undertaken was previously agreed with their manager. Time spent travelling to and from a place of work is not working time, unless the employee is engaged in travel during the course of their duties.
