Hi Guys.
A while since my last post but when looking for help I know this is the
place to go :-)

Anyway to cut to the chase. Next week I've a meeting with my personell
dept. regarding negotiations for on call payments. At present I provide IT
support 24/7 as well as doing my 9-5 shift . There are four of us and we do
a week in every four. This is a very busy company which operates 24hrs a day
and I can expect calls at any hour of the day or night, as well as W/Es,
bank holidays etc. I also have to do on site visits and remote dial-in's.

My problem is that I've no bench mark figures in which to state our
case. What I need is people in a simular position to give me a bit of info
and advice so I can have an idea of the industry standard (if there is one?)
and can go into the meeting with some solid fact and figures and also where
we stand with the Gov. legislation on work practices etc.
Any help would be appreciated and kept in confidence.

Thanks in advance.

We have been trying to negotiate that very topic with our HR dept for lets see now ........ it must be nearly two years. We get £15 for each weekday & £25 a day for weekends and public holidays. From our own research, these rates are crap so aim for higher than this.

Bring this to the Work board and someone there may be able to help you out mate.

I'd say half again what you're currently earning for 24/7 standby.

hmm for the 9-5 shift take nothing less then 40, and the 24 hour should be another 20, but hell what do i know.
