Health and Safety Law 2024 (October 2024)
What workers are entitled to be paid while on call is a separate issue that is regulated by the National Minimum Wage Regulations, not the Working Time Directive. Pay for hours spent on call is a matter for contractual agreement, provided the employer does not breach the National Minimum Wage Act 1998.
