Hours?

[Renos]

Whats are average hours and rates of pay in the area of the industry?

[Ivan67]

That really depends on the area of the industry and the level of your performance.

Performance has little to do with it short term, you get paid what your are offered or you refuse and the next guy does it.

Hours depend on the job, from a few, to eighteen plus ...for a daily rate that does not change.

[Ivan67]

If a person comes to me and they perform poorly they will not have the job much longer and if they keep those actions up they will be in search of a new career. Perhaps that has to do with the areas we operate in and the manner of work.

[Scab]

Context is wrong; you suggest pay depends on performance, not having a job depending on performance. It should go without saying that performing poorly endangers the job and getting paid at all; which was not the question anyway.

We all in the first instance, get paid what we are offered.

[Ivan67]

Nice contradiction, before performance had little to do with it! It is very clear that you have never worked with in E.R.S. I suppose though if you are dependent on a MR than perhaps.

God luck with that.

[Renos]

Whats E.R.S????

[Scab]

I am not contradicting myself at all.

Initially whats offered you accept. If you don't you don't get the job. If you do and you perform poorly, you lose the job and don't get paid at all. Quite clear enough I would have thought.

Performance related pay is not something I've ever had on a contract and generally is not how the system works.

WTF? "if you perform poorly you lose the job and don't get paid at all" ?! What kind of contract should that be? If you sign up hourly-pay based contract, you'll get paid for those hours you've worked, even if you get cought sleeping and they boot you out.

Im speaking in general terms. Of course you *should* get paid for what you have done though it certainly does happen that dismissed people may come up a few pounds short.
