Title: CHANGES TO WORKING WEEK HOURS
Post by: toonfandangl on May 17, 2009, 11:02:50 AM



When I first stated work (1957) we worked a 47 hour week.

It was reduced to 40 hours by the mid 60s this was in the UK.

When I started work in Oranjemund in 1968 we worked five and
a half day week.

We worked three out of the four Saturday mornings, the forth one
was the long weekend, I think it worked out at 45 hours a week over
the month.

When did it change (OR HAS IT) and to what hours do they work now.
