How can I get my employer to allow a shift from 5 8's to 4 10's?

IT depends upon the type of job you have.  If, for example, your job is something that requires coverage of a phone or help desk or dealing with hospital patients, your proposal probably won't happen.  If your job is basically one that has weekly or monthly deadlines, but some days are wild and others are not, you may be able to get it done.\n\nWrite up a proposal.  Emphasize that while imporving employee satisfaction (yours!), it will not cost the company any more money.  Show how your being gone one day a week will not harm the current information flow and operation of the business.  Show how your work day would be, specifying when and how long breaks will be.  Show how being there an extra 1.5 hours/day will add to productivity overall for both you and the business.  I'd try to not tie it to yourself exactly, more to the position you are currently holding.\n\nBest wishes!

You would have to contact your HUMAN RESOUCES DEPT for that answer...sorry..every work place has different policies...

It is a bit too complicated to answer simply. There are various exceptions and in the UK employees can opt out of this regulation in their contracts.\n\nThe basic rights and protections that the Regulations provide are:\n\n    *\n      a limit of an average of 48 hours a week which a worker can be required to work (though workers can choose to work more if they want to).\n    *\n      a limit of an average of 8 hours work in 24 which nightworkers can be required to work.\n    *\n      a right for night workers to receive free health assessments.\n    *\n      a right to 11 hours rest a day.\n    *\n      a right to a day off each week.\n    *\n      a right to an in-work rest break if the working day is longer than 6 hours.\n    *\n      a right to 4 weeks paid leave per year.\n\n\nCurrent position on the opt-out in the UK\n\nAs the opt out is going through a negotiating process in Europe, the UK law remains unchanged on this point and workers are still able to opt-out of the weekly working time limits.  The UK will be given time to implement any changes to legislation and any future developments on this and other Working Time topics will be posted on this website in due course.\n\nMember States discussed a revised proposal from the European Commission at the Employment Council on 2 June.  However there was no agreement on the proposals at this point. \n\n\nFor more details go here:\nhttp://www.dti.gov.uk/employment/employment-legislation/working-time-regs/index.html

You should return the call and tell her not to call anymore since you do not work there.  Offer to be a consultant at $25/hour if they need to find anything with a minimum of 4 hour shifts.

i don't think it's a law...mandatory time clock, i hate it without a time clock, it seems i got jipped when i worked like that. i would find another job if your place doesnt' have a time clock. there's no proof at all of what you worked, and if your check is short, you can't say antyhing about it!!!

I work with Mcdonald 10 years ago, if not mistaken there was a policy.  Check with your stall manager

The best way to answer this question for yourself is simple.  Do ride-alongs.  Most agencies allow them.  Trust me, you will know by the end of the shift if it is something you want to do.

I dont see why you couldnt.\n\nMight be best to confirm with your boss.

Unfortunately, I am 99.9% sure that is completely legal.\n\nI mean, according to your explanation, after you clocked backed in from your lunch that would be 1:30 pm.  So, your last stretch of work was only 4.5 hours long.  At most work places people that work 5 hour shifts don't even get breaks.

A lot of places give the employee a shift deferential for working nights.  It is a few cents an hour.

Are you a union member? If so, check with them first. They should handle it for you. If not, there are some things you should consider. Are you really well enought to go back? If you aren't you will need a doctor's note saying that. If you now are and the human resource department says the 1st shift is the only time available talk to a lawyer. He or she may be able to work something out with a simple phone call. Good luck.

No. My poor husband had to work, though! He's an assistant manager at a retail electronics store. His manager told him to be there by 5 a.m. - and they were going to be written up if they didn't, or were late. So - he was there at a quarter till 5; the MANAGER didn't show up till 5.30!

About a cord and one half in a 8 hour shift if it is a union job, and about 3 cord if it is a non union job.\nThis is based on a 8 hour work day with 30 minutes off for lunch and 2 ten minute breaks.
