Things to consider

For any hours worked at the weekend the engineer would get double time pay. This type of work is based on volunteering, however, we would expect all members of staff to volunteer at some stage during the year so to spread the work around. There may also be some out of hours work in the week, as above, but this would get paid on 1.5 time hourly rate.
