strikertworedshoes - you do get paid for dayas off, and you will lose money for every day that you are on strike. If you earn £900 per month, and there are 30 days in the month that works out to £30 per day. If you go on strike for 5 days, of which 3 days are rostered as a trip and 2 days rostered as days off, you will lose £150 of wages, not £90.
