Hello everyone. Am looking for some advice on the above subject regarding pay. I am working on a particular project which is working under the Construction Industry Joint Council Working Rule Agreement.
There are 4 sub-contractors on the project. Each one of them adhere to this agreement where the overtime rate goes up after 39 hours. My sub-contractor does not. They pay overtime after 45 hours. It states in my contract clearly a overtime rate is enforced once 45 hours for the week has been achieved but are they breaking the law as they should be paying overtime after 39 hours?
Many thanks in advance
