What's missing
Where the app can't follow a rule to the letter yet, its notes say so, and say how to allow for it when you enter your hours. From this page's agreements:
- 'no pyramiding of premium pay' (20.07) leaves it unclear whether the 20% is paid on overtime hours; the calculator adds it on every hour of a day ticked Night.
Enter your own hours in the Electrician Cheque app: it applies these rates, the overtime and holiday rules, dues and tax, and keeps a year of cheques. Free for a month.
A number on this page is wrong? Report a wrong rate: it opens the app's feedback box with this page named, no email needed.
Between jobs? Open the call-out board: every public union hall call-out in one place, rebuilt every night.
