We work on a campsite .
We work a 40 hour week and are salary basic min wage ( 6 month a year contract ) we do not get paid overtime or on call payments.
We live on site in our own caravan , when we are on call we cannot leave the site , drink or go out for a meal . Sometimes we are on call for 48 hours over 2 days or we on on call for 12hrs a night + our normal working day should we be paid for time on call .
We get 2.5 hours per week stand by time and that time is for checking toilets and opening gates at 7am + locking gates at 11pm also we have to check in late arrivals upto 11pm
We do not get paid for call outs or time off in lieu and we have to stay onsite when on call
Is this legal and should we be paid for oncall time as we can not leave the site
Forgot to say 2.5 hrs is part of our 40hrs we work and the tasks take alot longer than 2.5 hrs
Regards & Thx in adv for advice
