Do normal working hours for employment have to be those for which you are paid for WTC purposes?
Hi EKS
I think the heading on paid work on handbook page 183 should cover it - paid or expect to be paid. So if she goes back to her employer and says she actually worked a lot more hours than contracted and requests payment for those hours, this could count. But if it is preparation time for the contracted hours, for which the rate of pay presumably reflects her knowledge and experience, I think that would be difficult.

Many thanks Mark.
