Additional hours / Weekend support activities

[SK5951]

Hello all

I am currently in Tier 2 general visa working for an IT company. As a part of the Job role assigned to me in COS, sometimes I need to be on weekend support / be on call during bank holiday days for the same sponsor. Will this additional weekend / holiday hours will be considered as additional employment ?

In payslip, apart from the basic pay these additional payments are added under weekend stand by and additional hours (holiday) .

So all details are in one payslip and same tax code applied as well.

Can someone in the forum please advise if this will be considered as a overtime or an additional employment. Thank you.

As long as you dont work (or dont get paid to be precise) over 20 hours in a week there is no issue.
You can call it overtime, additional work, supplementary work. No issue if it is below 20Hrs and outside your regular work.
