- 4 November 2014 12:18274066If this is backdated some businesses could have serious financial problems.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-29896810 - 4 November 2014 21:30274086I think the ruling over all is backdating 3 months... so hardly any trouble for businesses.Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud. Maya Angelou ☺🌈🌄🌌🌏🌍🌎
- 5 November 2014 03:40274087Alot of small company work overtime I would work up to 80 or 90 hours some times when working away and have to get there and back it is the only way, I do not agree that overtime should be paid when not working it (Why) Working overtime helps pay the bills and some of it should be saved if you wish to take two weeks off work, it is very unfair that the boss should have to fork out more then your 40hrs aweek if you are not doing them .
And also to pay that he has to put the cost of that onto the job or the project he is selling which in turn could be a major factor in getting the work in the first place and if his costs are to high and he does not get the job the boss and the workers lose out even might cost the worker his job.If this goes ahead it will be a bad move and cost jobs,
And a lot of companys already pay a ex/ amount at Xmas anyway with a dinner for the workers and even their familys so we will see a end to that and alot of goodwill will go out the window.Very bad move for all. - 5 November 2014 15:11274106Vic .. whatever you have experienced in your working life is long gone. Alot have changed over the last 8/ 10 years.
I am sure the Government will do something to stop claiming as far back as this. Cant see this happening to be honest.
Too much at risk. I know there is a ruling somewhere in the law ... which says 3 months maximum. I might be wrong ...as I have not read anything as such for a while.
Besides UK is the lowest amongst Ireland on Holiday pay. On the continent without bank holiday you get 28 plus upto 36.
Again this might have changed too ... ;)Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.

We have seen this already in the pass 3years company,s only paying one way or driver only and even some case nothing or they will call a local company in and he then will only have to pay them a one off,so this is a no win for anyone or even more part-workers in shops and the list goes on and on.
- 5 November 2014 15:41274108Employers will always find a way of recouping money they are legally obliged to pay.
Big employers after cheap unskilled labour will hire an overseas agency to recruit at the minimum wage in their country, closer to home many care workers who visit houses only get paid for the time spent in each house and not the travelling time between houses. - 5 November 2014 18:13274124From what I read this does not cover voluntary overtime.
- 5 November 2014 18:23274125All overtime is voluntary in name
