11 Hours (Eleven Book 1)

Product Information

It is suggested that the reasons for the origins of the system are based on the fact that people are able to count to twelve on one hand (using the thumb).

Use this calculator to compute what time to wake up or go to bed to get a given number of hours of sleep. If the employee is identified to be working more than 48 hours per week and they have not agreed to opt out of the 48 hour weekly working time limit, then the Line Manager must discuss this with the employee and decide the best way forward, e. A young worker is also entitled to twelve uninterrupted hours in each 24-hour period in which they work. In such circumstances the advice of the Occupational Health and Safety Advisory Service should be sought. In the UTC time standard, a minute on rare occasions has 61 seconds, a consequence of leap seconds (there is a provision to insert a negative leap second, which would result in a 59-second minute, but this has never happened in more than 40 years under this system).It should be noted that this is not the total amount of hours that the employee is at rest each week.

In determining local arrangements to implement this agreement, employers and employees are expected to ensure that no action is taken which discriminates against any members of staff with family or carer responsibilities. If performing time addition or time subtraction by hand, a good approach is to first convert the input time interval into a convenient unit with a fixed number of seconds ( see the table), and then to start with the greatest time unit that would be altered and move down towards the smallest one. Managers are responsible for ensuring that compensatory rest is provided, within a reasonable time, usually within two weeks of the excess period.

Leave requests are approved at managers discretion based on the needs of the service but should not be unreasonably refused. The Terms and Conditions offered to substantive employees in relation to annual leave entitlement are already more favourable than those offered within the Working Time Regulations. Average weekly working time is calculated by adding the total number of hours worked by the worker each week within the reference period and then dividing this total by the number of weeks in the reference period. Using the terms "12 midnight" and "12 noon" can remove ambiguity in cases where a person may not be accustomed to conventions. If you do receive such benefits, enter the value of the benefits into the box and choose whether this is on a yearly, monthly or weekly basis.

Deductions before tax should go in the "Pre-tax" box, and those taken after tax should go in the "After tax" box. 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.For employees who work shifts, the use of timesheets that already are currently being used to record hours worked is appropriate. As most employers do not include bonus payments in the calculation of pension deductions, the calculator also makes no changes to pensions in a bonus period. The right under Police Regulations to a break of between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the length of the shift will generally be more favourable.

This could be if something happens at work that's unexpected and outside of the employer's control, for example an accident or emergency.Although the Agency will be recognised as the employer in terms of the Working Time, NHS Fife must comply with the requirement for in-work rest breaks. The seasonal, temporal, or unequal hour was established in the ancient Near East as 1⁄12 of the night or daytime.
