goncall Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I publicly admit our on call rate. - We get paid £2.50 ph extra. As soon we get a call we get extra £8.50 per hour. You guys may rip the pee out of my employer customer service policy but you got to remember consumers love that type stuff! i read that as you get £6 ph normally i must be wrong Quote
AlarmScot Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 i read that as you get £6 ph normally i must be wrong Nah I am salaried, My wage is £20-£30k a year, We get paid per hour on call thou for example I be on call for weekend so that is between 7pm to 8am. = 11 hours. Hopefully I explain this better - For for 11 hours we get £2.50 x 11 = £27.50 If I get a call for any part of they 11 hours I get £8.50 x Hours = Y We don't get mega bucks unlike our competitors however we also get a day in leu which is worth it! Hopefully that makes sense. Quote

Hopefully that makes sense. if your salaried how come the 10k difference ,the call is that 8.50 minus the 2.50 or extra so 11.00 ph for when doing calls on call Quote
AlarmScot Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 (edited) if your salaried how come the 10k difference ,the call is that 8.50 minus the 2.50 or extra so 11.00 ph for when doing calls on call Correct its £8.50+£2.50 for getting a shout. Our on call rate has not increased inline with our wage increases buts our call out stuff currently in process on getting reviewed and changed in next 6months. (Companies our size takes ages to change policies) Edited November 22, 2014 by AlarmScot Quote
