Morning, I am new here so I hope this is the correct way to ask for some advice.
Firstly, with the type of work I am in we have a company vehicle at home and travel to various sites during the week, can be 30min or could be 2 hours away. In our contract it reads "...you will be reqired to travel to such places as the contracts undertaken by the company dictate". And also "Your working day will commence when you arrive on site. Travel time will not count towards your working time. For the avoidance of any doubt, time spent travelling to and from your place of work, wherever that may be, will not constitute working time and accordingly there is not right to be paid for such travelling time"
The company are planing to send some staff further away, upto 3 hours, provide B&B so we wouldn't have to drive back home. In the contract there is nothing relating to staying away from home. Can we be made to stay away from home? Thanks inadvance.
