No. Combination is only allowed between multiple part time POSITIONS/JOBS which exist for at least 12 months. You can have multiple employees covering the 12 month period but you cannot have multiple part time employees covering the same week. Each POSITION/JOB does not need to be continuous.1. Can I use more than two part-time employees (let's say 4 employees) combined as ONE part time jobs, in order to make the part-time jobs longer than 12 months and there was some gaps between each employee? If so, can I use more than two part time jobs like this, to add up to 30 hours?
There is no average. Add the hours worked per JOB together until you hit 30, anything above that is discarded2. If part time employees can be combined as one part time job, Can I use the average hours of all part time employees , or I only can use the lowest one?
You should treat a paid holiday as a work day3. For full time staff, their payslips are based on hours. When they are on holiday, the payslips only show holiday pay on it and no working hours. Shall I take holiday payslips off my application?
No as she is not settled4. One of my staff is not EEA nationals but married a British. She is holding a sponsor partner visa. Can I count her in?
A full time position is only full time if the employee is working at least 30 hours a week, otherwise it will be part time. You cannot claim someone working less than 30 hours a week as a full time worker (that is part time)5. For full time staff, can I use the average hours per week to make it more than 30? If there is any week is lower than 30 hours, it that alright?
Assume the highlighted portions above was supposed to be 52, not 32.georgina3499 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 20, 2018 6:44 pm
1. Job Creation
Can I give you an example and could you help me check my understanding about part time combination is right please:
Part time position 1: 15 hours per week
First employee 20 weeks, second employee worked the following 20 weeks, then third employee worked 12 week after the second employee. In total more than 52 weeks.
Part time position 2: 10 hours per week
First employee 20 weeks, second employee worked the following 20 weeks, then third employee worked 12 week after the second employee. In total more than 32 weeks.
Part time position 3: 10 hours per week
First employee 20 weeks, second employee worked the following 20 weeks, then third employee worked 12 week after the second employee. In total more than 32 weeks.
Can I use these three part time positions as a full time job?
Also, can I have gaps between employees for part time job position as well? (I saw on guidance said a single job need not consist of 12 consecutive months, my understanding "the single job" means whatever full time or part time,am I right?)
That is a possible interpretation. But I don't think that is how the HO intended it.georgina3499 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 20, 2018 6:44 pm2. Married British:
I found Guidance said " Copies of any of the following documents which demonstrate that each employee has settled status in the UK:
(v) if the employee is the spouse of an EEA national, the biometric data page of their passport, showing their photograph and personal details, or a residence card, and any of the documents in (i) or (iv) above which relate to the EEA national, together with their marriage certificate to the EEA national; "
Can I understand my employee as the spouse of a British, which is also an EEA national, and treat her as settled?
It does not matter. If you have paid the same amount during the holiday, that can be considered as FT employment. The hours on the payslip is irrelevant. CW calculates hours worked as Gross pay (in FPS)/Hourly rate (filled in the job table)georgina3499 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 20, 2018 6:44 pm3. Full time worker:
I had a full time worker worked around 50 hours per week. He worked for me more than 60 weeks. But there was a 5 weeks holiday gap during his employment. His payslip is on weekly basis. During his holiday, I paid the whole holiday pay for him on the first week of his holiday and the rest of 3 payslips only show zero on them. Should I move the 3 zero payslips off, only use the normal one (still more than 52 weeks)?
I am not sure what you mean by "transferring money into hours ".georgina3499 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 21, 2018 7:09 pmThanks for your replying. Really helpful. Sorry for the mistake yes it's 52 not 32.
I paid my staff tips and service charge on the payslip as well. If they calculate hours worked as Gross pay (in FPS)/Hourly rate, do you think I can transfer that part of money into hours (ignore the hours on the payslip)?
The answer is no. This is the specific case that was addressed by the rule clarification in 2014.georgina3499 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 21, 2018 7:09 pm
Also for the full time job, if there are two full time workers both worked more than 12 months one after another. Can I use them as two full time job, even actually they are the same role in my company? Thanks
