No. Your company will pay you the same salary.

Way back went i did continetal nights we got an extra hour paid, and the boss bought the take away (which ironically meant we took a longer luch by about half an hour)

No you work hours not time, so if you're contracted to work 40 hours a week that's what you work. The time element has no impact on the contract.

Why can’t we just leave it as it is now?

Pisses me off when we put clocks Back in October - always going home in the dark

Does anyone really like it going back? Nobody I know does.

Ha this question brings back memories.

Last time I worked a night shift on the same date as the clocks went back one of the shift supervisors shrugged and said something along the lines of:"...well, at least now you can tell which shift you will be on when the clocks go forward"

In the 1960's there was a two year experiment of keeping summer time through the winter. It was pitch black in the mornings when children were going to school. Drivers were asleep at the wheel. There was a record number of children injured in road accidents.

When the clocks are changed, it's dark earlier in the evenings, but drivers are awake by then.

In my present job, I'm salaried so it makes no difference.

In previous jobs, I would be paid the extra hour.

Why was daylight saving introduced in the UK?

The idea resurfaced during World War One when the need to conserve coal made the suggestion of daylight saving more pertinent. Germany had already introduced a similar scheme when the Summer Time Act was finally passed in the UK on 17th May 1916. The clocks went forward one hour on the following Sunday, 21st May.

I remember having to wear a hi-viz orange armband that the school provided. This will have been 1969.

When I worked as a nurse on shifts I always did the shift working an extra hour, but didn't get the extra hours pay. The idea being that you work an hour less in Spring, but I was never rostered to work that shift.
