Hi,
Not trying to be clever as I genuinely work 60-80 hours every week and technically does it exempt me from the 24 month rule.
I've been thinking about my situation I'm a long way off the 24 month rule, but I'm wondering wether it even applies to me. I regularly take on many hours of freelance work and have more than one contract however the main contract is for 37.5 hours a week. As I understand this rule it's if you spend 40% or more of your working time at a clients location then this applies.
If I was to spend 60% of my working week hours, at home e.g evenings,weekends etc and I have valid timesheets and invoices and payments from clients to back this up I would be permanently exempt anyways?
I'm not currently an employee of my ltd company but if i was, it is possible to work upto 78 hours a week legally as you can opt-out of the break rules so it would be possible as 1 day on the main contract would be working from home anyways.
The other question I have is that sometimes not all my hours would be paid for e.g I could spend 2 hours trying to solve an issue where I have only quoted 1 hour would it be 2 hours or 1 hour that counts against this rule if required it would be easy to keep recorded evidence of this.
