Night workers and clock changes

[Samcro]

What happens, do they have to work an extra an hour, do they get paid extra?

It's great fun when the clocks change and your arrest time goes all squiffy!

I'm a night worker, luckily I usually have half term off and clocks back coincides with half term round here! I worked it once.... never never never again!!

Yep, working the extra hour tonight, so a 13 hour shift 😣. Think I get paid the extra hour...

DH in retail loses out whichever way the clocks go. Works the extra hour in Autumn but when rhey go forward still has to do the usual number of hours. Doesn't get paid for it either.

NHS and I’ve worked it before- 14 hours isnatead of 13 and no extra pay
I’m on days today so get an extra hour in bed tonight!

Yep. Police officers here start the night shift at 10pm, halfway through your night shift the clocks jump back an hour and you still work til 7am.
An hour extra for no pay.
But then in the spring you work an hour less on a night shift.

DH is working the extra hour unpaid; but he also got the spring clock change so it’s all balanced out this year!

We don’t get paid for the extra hour and don’t lose an hour when the clocks go forward. Obviously that only works if you work both.

NHS here, We don't get paid the extra hour, I hate working that night, it drags so much.
I usually book annual leave
The spring night is good, moving an hour on at 1am is lovely,
Now we have electronic notes it buggers up the drip readings etc tho......
swings and roundabouts I guess 😴

I saw a fb post today from a lifeboat station pointing out that they are usually on call 24 hours a day but tomorrow they are on call for 25 hours. Obviously they're volunteers so don't get paid anyway, I think the point of the post was more to remind people to alter their clocks.

Working tonight on telephone lines - private - don't get paid the extra hour. I was told "it evens out in the spring" but what if I'm not working that night in the spring? (Have decided tonight to hand my notice in before Christmas)

I will be claiming that hour's overtime.

Previously when working this night I was a carer for an agency and I just put 13 hours on my timesheet and got paid for it.

Don't get paid the extra hour, rarely worked when they went forward

Have to say as an NHS worker, it used to be, work the extra hour and don't get paid (and I've worked a few) and if you work the night the clocks go forward you work an hour less but get paid the same (never been fortunate enough to work this shift). But the last night (last year) I worked the night they went back I did get paid ( but it was torture).

I started at 23.00 tonight and have to stay an extra hour. We get paid for it though.

With regards to medications, say they are due 12, 6, 12, 6, you would end up giving them at 12BST, 5GMT, 11GMT and then 5 and 11. It totally buggers up your paperwork and charting though and you end up having to have the drug chart represcribed!

bf works in the NHS, and nope, no pay. But ward is very well staffed (high dependency) so they cover each other and have extra breaks if they have to work it.

Ex nurse. Yes, we worked an extra hour meaning a 13 hour night shift. No, we didn’t get paid any extra. It was soul-destroying when at 2am you had to turn the clocks back to 1am. 🙁

Agree that it buggers up documentation. End up adding BST/GMT next to the time in notes entries, otherwise one can, for instance, end up recording reviewing a baby at an earlier time than it was born!

We don’t get paid extra either and usually end up on earlies when the clocks go forward, which is also horrible 😞
