Any of you lot do call out for IT stuff, just interested in what T and C's you get ?

Yes i do, £30p/weekday, £50/sat sun or bank hols.

When im called, straight away an hours money just for the phone call, anything after that is charged at x1.5 hourly rate or x2 at weekends.

10% of base salary is added to my salary. This is for a 4 in 1 rota. Once I'm called out I get 1 hour at time and a half regardless of day i.e xmas day or time i.e @ 3am. From here I continue to get time and a half until I either complete a job (even if I have to wait 4 hours for a Dell or HP engineer to arrive) or until I return home (if a visit to the office is required).

I get called out with a major problem about once every 12 callouts so its worth while to me. Stupid easy fixes occur about once or twice in 4 callouts.

I get £2.05 per hour when on call (125.5hrs per week) so that's £250 per week just for being on call.
As soon as my pager goes off the clock starts, time and a half during the week and Saturday, double bubble on a Sunday, treble on a Bank Holiday.
Fortunately I can fix most things from home, occasionally I have to come on site if it's major.
I am on call 2 weeks in 4 and guaranteed to get called at least 4 times per week.
It's no fun but it pays the bills..

I also rub my hands when the power to the building decides to turn off (this has happened a few times throughout the summer) .As per Danny B, the clock starts at the phone call and stops when im sat back home having a bottle of something A weeks money in a weekend, i'll live, just.

Happy Days.

Can you imagine the field day NSR would have with this info

I get about £220 per week for standby and minimum 3 hours at time and a half for a call (double time on Sundays and bank hols) if I have to sign on to the systems. A quick phone call is covered under the standby payments, unless you can *cough* blag it a longer call, like 20-30 mins, will get 3 hours overtime too.

I'm trying not too..

A weeks pay in a weekend is nice isn't it.. keeps the car on the road sometimes its just worth the lack of sleep though is it - people just don't realise how bad things can be sometimes do they?

darlodge

I like the style

Darren

stevem2k

60 each sat/sun, 30 a weekday , 1 in 3 or 4 rota , + time and a half ( min 1 hr ) for any work done outside 9am-6pm mon-fri . <>10 calls a week

Worth every penny

RichardC

£150 for the week and £150 for the 1st hour of EACH call then normal rate for the remainder.

Love it

Edited to add if your fortunate to be on call on a bank holiday you get 10hrs at double bubble even if there is no callouts

Mines crap then, 166.05 for the week, 5 quid for the call then overtime plus they put you in multiple rotas and try and combine them on the same week.

Oh well, made 500 quid last month and only got one call, cant be that bad !

HankScorpio

Don't do it any more, but currently in my place -
4k for the year, typically 1 week primary, 1 week secondary, 2 or 3 weeks off than back on.
No extra payment for work done whether it's 2 mins or a whole weekend.

David_Wallis

fookin ell we do ok, £500 per week call out

Cant remember what the hourly rate is, but its good, but then this job is good!
