Can you answer these questions on hours, benefits, and paid leave?

Answered 5 Mar 2008 by d.head

Several employment questions:

1. What is the normal / legal contractual employment hours per week. Is it 35, 37.5, or ...?

2. Is there a standard / legal minimum number of annual leave days per year?

3. I would like to employ an unemployed volunteer part-time without affecting the persons unemployment & housing benefits. Please confirm the maximum number of hours a person can work and maximum earnings to ensure no benefits are lost.
