sgtkate Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 But then a lot of specialists sits on their bums until something goes bad. It's cheaper to pay them for doing nothing then pay them as subcontractors. So not entirely undoable. Oh agreed And it's been shown that roles with job sharers are more efficient than those without, same as part time workers. Often people stretch their work out to fill the time, I mean I'm at work now yet here I am on SF, so point proven really. If I went part time I could probably do the core of my job in 4 days a week saving my company 20% for the same work output. Hey I'm being honest here! However, they also need me to be available almost 24/7 if something really breaks, so it's all give and take, and how it should be whenever possible.

999tigger Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I haven't actually seen the details, have you got a link? ---------- Post added 11-02-2016 at 14:29 ---------- If you've just tipped over the 30k mark and want to reduce your hours, then going job share to 50% is a rather dramatic reduction... You now get 15k, but save £200 a month on your rent. Overall you've lost out hugely and reduced the chance of further improvements in your pay. In the budget apparently. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/health/news/11375600/NHS-now-dependent-on-foreign-doctors-with-3000-more-in-last-year.html The new thing I learned was no taper. 1p over £30k and you are liable.

Probably cost more to implement than it's ever going to save! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
999tigger Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Probably cost more to implement than it's ever going to save! Its like the bedroom tax. Its ideological and sounds good to the electorate. I hadnt realised the amounts had been set so low though. Think its a bit rich to make a fuss over this and the value if social housing, whilst devoting great effort to selling huge chunks of it off.
