What are the payments for working overtime?
All staff in pay bands 1-7 are eligible for overtime payments. There is single harmonised rate of time and a half for all overtime, with the exception of the work on Bank Holidays, which will be paid at double time. AfC indicates that overtime payments will be eligible for full time staff working extra hours. How does it work for part time nurses working extra hours? At present no one gets paid until they have worked more than 37.5 hours (and then only in extreme circumstances). We are offered time owing only. Does this continue under AfC? It is the same under AfC. Part time staff will be paid overtime at plain time rates until they exceed 37.5 hours. An important difference about the overtime arrangements under AfC however, is that the first presumption is that staff are paid for their overtime. At the moment, it is assumed that staff will take time of in lieu (TOIL). Staff are able to choose to take TOIL but it will be their choice, it won’t be forced on them.
