48 Hour opt-out.
(3 posts)-
Drivers, and other workers here in the UK can sign an opt-out on the 48 hour week, which is voluntary and means they can work longer hours, it does'nt affect the rest of the working time directive, but allows people to do overtime.Posted 2 years ago #

Sorry Sean,but we in the Republic decided to go for full membership of the Big-School.
The T`s + C`s of our Maastricht led agreement restricted our use of opt-outs,in fact it dispensed with them altogether.
The entire Opt Out scenario is a hot potato within the European Commission too as it feels the UK has over indulged in such stuff.
Be happy that we in the republic will be enjoying "More time with our Families" and "Work Life Balancing" whilst our homes and cars are being taken away by the Repo Man....Posted 2 years ago # -
