Hours of work

Our standard hours of work is Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, 35 hours per week.  

We operate a non-contractual flexi time scheme.  The scheme allows employees the opportunity to work flexibly to improve their work-life balance.  This allows employees to start a bit earlier, finish a bit earlier, and leave at 4pm on Fridays.
