Whether or not you are paid extra – over and above your normal hourly rate – for overtime worked will depend on your contract terms, although you must be paid at least the National Minimum Wage for all the hours your employer required you to work, including overtime, whatever your written contract document says.Where your hours and pay are governed by collective bargaining, it is likely that your employer will have negotiated enhanced hourly rates and shift premiums for overtime and anti-social hours.Often an employer will pay staff who work anti-social hours a higher wage than those who work normal office hours. Indeed, if you are paid by the hour then you must be paid for any overtime hours that you work. This is the least that an employer can do, because working longer hours places a strain on the health of individuals and limits their ability to fully participate in the life of their family and community.
