If an organisation has to operate a standby system.
How dose the WTR stand with the following standby system.
Standby rotation approx 10 weeks between
Length of standby 1 week
Work normal shift approx 8am to 6pm
Rest until earliest (expected) call out 10 pm
Normal working day next day
This is the style of standby system a domestic gas repair company is proposing to operate (so factor in that the men will also be driving)

You may wish to contact your local HSE who will have a Working Time Officer who may be able to help solve your problem.

I must admit to finding this area of employment law difficult to understand. Have you seen a copy of 'Your Guide to the Working Time Regulations'? - free from the Department of Trade & Industry. (www.dti.gov.uk/er)

This is an interesting subject for the Fire Service as we employ part-time people who have 'ordinary jobs' and are retained by the Fire Authority as 'fire-fighters' during the remainder of their time. This usually results in them being effectively on 24-hour cover. However, the work they actually carry out is subject to fire calls and very spasmodic.
The only problem we have found has been with a potential for fire appliance drivers accumulating driving hours and exceeding their allowed hours preventing them working the next day for their employer.
I would also be interested in the implications for this.
