hi
This is a really random question but I'm hoping someone could help me.
When a job is part-time it posts the pay at full time rate and then says how many hours the job is - so eg: £14,000 pro rata hours are 16 hours a week. I know I can calculate back and then multiply by 16 to get the rate I would be on BUT how do I know what the hourly rate is? I do not know what the full time hours are!
Are full time hours generally accepted to be 35 hours a week? 37 hours a week? 40 hours a week? Or something completely different? Calculating back based on these different hours make a big difference to what the hourly rate would be and whether it would be worth me giving up a days childminding to take on a different role in a pre-school.
