Adherence to office/clinic hours will be determined by your Line
Manager. The Company reserves the right, upon reasonable notice, to
change your working hours if the need arises and you accept that your
working hours may be changed. You will be entitled to a minimum of
a ½ hour lunch break if you work continuously for more than 5 hours.
The taking of such time should be at a convenient time and
communicated to your Line Manager.
The nature of the industry and the specific requirements of your job
may result in you being required to work overtime, night shifts, public
holidays and on Saturdays and Sundays in certain instances as may be
necessary for the proper performance of your duties or as reasonably
required by the Company.
The Company will give you reasonable notice of any requirements to
work overtime and the particulars of the shift you will be required to
work will be explained to you by the relevant department head. By
accepting this appointment, you have agreed to work such overtime
as the Company may require. Notwithstanding the above, it is agreed
that in the event of emergency work, it will be compulsory for you to
work emergency overtime. Should you be required to work overtime
you will be entitled to time off in lieu of the overtime worked, if you
however, earn above the prescribed earnings threshold, as amended
from time to time, you will not be entitled to claim for overtime
worked.
