Staff overtime coped with due to four different pay bands in each shift
A bus management spokesman said they are coping with the difficulty of a driver walkout. Chris Bainbridge, representative of First Bus Group, commented: “We are managing to run slightly more than we did on the previous strike day but there is serious disruption.” First said that with the help of bosses driving buses, it was running “slightly more” services than on October 26 when a strike disrupted 90 per cent of services. Both sides are deadlocked over pay issues.
The ingenuity of a Time & Attendance UK system is it ensures correct payments are made to staff, whether they are paid annually, or are on flexitime. You can create a wide range of daily working patterns (shifts), with either fixed or flexitime rules. These can run past midnight, making night shifts simple to define. Overtime is easily monitored with up to four different pay bands in each shift. Bands are selected based on the time and the number of hours worked.
