Ambiguity over daily and hourly rates

[kingcook]

The issue now is the fact that the hourly rate doesn't tally to the daily rate.

You need to speak to the agent.

Is this a temp job or is it a contract for a short period of work. There is a world of difference.

Would be interested to hear more about this - how would the difference(s) between contract and temp affect me in relation to my current issue?

It doesn't.

Speak to the agent.

Ok I've spoken to the agent and he's re-worded it to the correct hourly rate. Thanks all for your help. Now have to hope all is well with JSA umbrella.

You get paid for the work you do. If you work through your lunch break, then you get paid for it. If not, then you don't.

No you don't, you get paid for what the contract says you get paid for. If it says you get paid lunch hours then you get paid lunch hours, if not not. If it is silent on the issue then you get paid lunch hours

last few for me have been 35, 37 and now 37.5 with 37.5 being the most common. When I go for roles in Switzerland I find they're almost always 40hr/week so you can never assume.

So you agree with me, 37.5 is most common.

Yup but also I was saying it's not safe to assume that.
