The foreign secretary, who is expected to be confirmed as Britain’s next prime minister on Monday, wants to review existing EU worker protections, including the 48-hour working week,
The new government is also understood to want to look at rules on taking breaks and calculating holiday pay that guarantees most people four weeks’ holiday a year plus bank holidays.
every employment contract I've ever signed has you opt out of this as standard anyway, although I've never actually "worked" more than 40you have a 48-hour work week?
that's bleak. i wonder if it correlates with a higher acceptance for slagging off, having a few at lunch etc.Apparently they were hitting 68-hour work weeks in South Korea until fairly recently. Absurd.
In my experience that's what America is like. No holiday and heavy working hours as we know, but a lot more disappearing off all afternoon for no apparent reason, extended dentists appointments on work hours, going off to file your taxes on work hours and so onthat's bleak. i wonder if it correlates with a higher acceptance for slagging off, having a few at lunch etc.
suppose that doesn't need to be the case. and we already do that here anyway...
i hope she plans to treat THE COUNTRY consensuallyJoking aside, it's weird to think of a PM in that situation, but whatever. I don't really care what they're into as long as it's consensual.
Nah, she'll be going in dry.i hope she plans to treat THE COUNTRY consensually
