Question: What is the difference between over time and flex time?
Answer: Normally an employee is required to work for a set number of
hours every week. There may however be occasions where the employer
will ask the employee to work for longer hours. Overtime is the time worked
over and above the employee's basic working week. Overtime must not be
confused with flex-time. In a flex-time system an employee is allowed to
work extra hours earlier in the week or month, in return for which he will
work fewer hours later on. His overall number of hours worked remains
constant.
