Re: Allowable overtime means they can creep up to almost 40 hours?
Hello,
People are free to use their time as it please them, just don't complain if you don't find a way to use it productively.
Moreover, depending on the type of contract with the company, you may be required to work more, it just protect lower level staff such as technician to work without being paid.
After all the principle is that we do a work for a company against money, not that once we sign a contract all our time belongs to a company.
If a company ask their employee to work more, it is possible, its called over time, and with the exception of managers, every employee can claim it.
Badly up to now, many people expect that any email they received had to be answered right away lowering their quality of life.
I'm glad that the law allows staff to avoid them stress when they fail to reply to an email during their free time. But, if they want to reply, it's their choice.
