If been busy trying to find out whether Oh can be expected to work 50hrs or more a week,working through all breaks aswell.
I went on to the government web site and printed off the necessary 48 hour directive.
Thought I'd cracked it until I found the site had been updated on the 28th of this month.
**UPDATED** Revision of the European Working Time Directive
**Update Tuesday 28 April 2009** The European Working time Directive is thrown in the bin !
For the first time since its inception, a conciliation committee [1 (http://www.epha.org/a/980#nb1)] has failed to reach an agreement. It emerged on 27 April 2009 that no compromise could be reached between the European Parliament and the European Council on three key points : the opt-out, on-call time and multiple contracts. The European Parliament delegation made the decision to end negotiations with fifteen votes in favour, five abstentions and zero against.
To read more about the five long years of extensive negotiations please read on.
** The article has been updated with the Employment, Social Policy, Health and Consumer Affairs Council conclusions of December 2007.**
Explain in"idiot" terms please because I'm reading it now and he is expected to work these long hours with no protection.:~(
