Time off for trade union duties and activities - a guide to facility time (August 2017)

Chapter 3

Working hours

[ch 3: page 22]

All references to working hours in the context of union duties and activities mean “any time when in accordance with his contract of employment (the employee) is required to be at work”(TULRCA, section 173). That rule can give rise to issues for part-timers and shift workers (see page 25).
