Apprentices under the age of eighteen, cannot work more than forty hours per week and must have two consecutive days off. Apprentices aged eighteen or over cannot work more than forty-eight hours per week and must have one day off per week or two days off per fortnight. Here are some examples of areas that should be included in working time. Travelling time. Travelling in connection with a worker’s job is working time. This includes travelling to customers/competitions or training, but not between home and a permanent place of work. Training time. Time spent on training counts as working time. Additional time. This can often occur either end of an employee’s shift when they may have to arrive early or stay late, for example, an employee might have to arrive 20 minutes early before their shift starts to get to a competition or customer, or they may have to stay behind an additional 20 minutes to wait for a delivery or a farrier to finish; this must be counted as work time. Working hours includes any time when the worker is at the employer’s disposal and is expected to carry out activities or duties for the employer.
