Hi,
Apologies if I get the exact terminology wrong.
I have been sent sent a summary of this by HR with a letter attached where I can opt-out of the 48 hour working week by signing it.
I feel uncomfortable about this, I regularly work longer hours but don't agree with signing a letter which appears to formalise this.
However, it has made me consider the bigger picture. What if I don't sign and then have a massive car crash at the end of a 60 hour week> Could my employer say that I was working outside of the 48 hours and had not signed an opt-out so, therefore, I was outside of their juristriction?
Anyone have any experience of this?
