Re: Not office hours? No contact

"But people work for them and you might ask why ? It comes down to that basic need to have a roof over your head and food on the table "

which is exactly why minimum standard working conditions have to be legislated for by the government and not left to companies to set for themselves. If for reasons of flexibility companies want to have employees available outside of working hours, or employees want flexible hours, the agreement should be clearly stated in a contract, and extra hours worked should be paid in time off in lieu or cash
