Additional hours
How to claim
Employees must have approval in advance of working the paid additional hours from:
- a manager of Grade 12 or above
- or, a budget holder as determined by the head of service in conjunction with the line manager
Upon completion of the additional hours, employees need to claim on Business World for time worked. Employees can claim only for time worked over their contracted time up to full-time hours for the post per week. Guidance on entering variable payments can be found on FreshService.
We pay additional hours retrospectively. The payment will show in the employee's payslip in the following month.
Annual leave entitlement
Sometimes it is not appropriate to increase contractual hours either on a temporary or permanent basis. Managers must calculate the additional annual leave entitlement for the extra hours worked. It must be a true reflection of the hours that the part-time employee works.
Read the guidance for calculating annual leave and holiday pay for part-time employees who work additional hours up to full time hours per week.
