Just had a look at the new edition of the CAP 371, and although I admit it was a bit of a speed read there seems t be no major changes, apart from the rolling 7 day week.( which most companies are bringing in volentarily anyway!)
There seems to be no move the stopping the early start, late finish week, which over a couple of weeks is completely knackering. (there is a mention of training rostering staff into the effects of disruption of the circadian rythem, but no mention of stopping the practice anyway)
There is no mention of total duty hours per year ( meant to be reduced to 2000 duty hours under european law), although personally I worked about 750 block hours last year, the knackering bit was the 2300-2400 duty hours we were doing,( average 9 to 5'er is doing 1800-1900 hours a year)
that's my 2 bits worth, may be proved wrong ( hope so anyway!)
