These annual sessional delivery hours will be reviewed at the commencement of each academic year and, as stated at clause 8.8 below, your hours will be reconciled and reviewed on a quarterly basis. Your hours therefore may be subject to change (up or down) to meet operational requirements and to ensure that we avoid excessive discrepancies at the end of the academic year (leaving you either significantly underpaid or, in accordance with clauses 8.8 and 8.9 below, subject to a deduction from salary in order to address an overpayment). Any change to your sessional delivery hours will be subject to a limit of 10% (up or down) of your annual working hours. 8.2 Your annual delivery hours will be [NUMBER].

You will be notified of the hours to be worked from time to time by your line manager. 8.5 The payment for the teaching hours required of you includes an element of time for teaching preparation, assessment of students, marking, attendance at meetings and all other activities incidental to your teaching duties, but excludes time walking to and from the gate, which remains unpaid. For the avoidance of doubt you are not entitled to extra pay for working any additional hours associated with your timetabled sessions. 8.6 Any additional sessions worked over the agreed yearly amount will be paid at a flat rate of [hourly rate] per hour (including an element of holiday pay) provided that those additional sessions are authorised in advance by your line manager. 8.7 Any additional hours you are required to work that are not related to sessional delivery activity and associated duties (for example training and development activities) will be paid at a rate of 12.00 per hour. 8.8 The numbers of hours you will be required to teach each week may vary from time to time and you may not be required to work any hours in some weeks. 8.7 In the event that you have not worked your contracted hours, as specified in your schedule of work, by 31 August (pro-rated if your employment commences after 1 September) then the College reserves the right to reconcile the deficit, in the number of hours worked between 1 September and 31 August, with salary. In this situation, you authorise the College at any time during your employment and on termination, to deduct from your pay (which for this purpose includes but is not limited to salary, pay in lieu of notice, holiday pay and sick pay) all overpayment paid to you by the College in light of not working your annual timetabled hours to 31 August (pro-rated if your employment commences after 1 September). 8.8 Your actual hours worked will be reconciled against the annual hours timetabled and will be reconciled on a quarterly basis. Significant adjustments will normally be discussed with you before a deduction is made (such deductions are made to avoid excessive discrepancies at the end of the academic year). 8.9 You agree to accurately complete such annualised hours recording sheets as directed by your line manager. Completing these annualised hours recording sheets accurately is very important as you may not have regular hours and therefore the College must be able to verify your working hours at all times. Providing false information on the annualised hours recording sheets is considered gross misconduct and you will be dealt with in accordance with the College's disciplinary procedures.

9 PAY 9.1 Your annual salary will be calculated at the rate of [hourly rate] per hour for each sessional hour you are timetabled to deliver over the academic year. This is inclusive of an element of holiday pay, see section 12. 9.2 Your salary will be paid in 12 equal instalments and paid monthly on the last working day of each month. Your salary will be credited directly to your bank account. 9.3 Any additional sessional hours that you work, will be paid directly into your bank account, one month in arrears. 10 EXPENSES You will be reimbursed for business expenses properly incurred by you in the performance of your duties provided that any expenses incurred have been approved in advance, in writing, by your line manager in line with the College s guidelines regarding expenses and benefits. You must produce evidence of your expenses in the form required by the College. The College reserves the right to refuse to reimburse expenses for which no satisfactory evidence has been produced. 11 PENSION SCHEME 11.1 You are entitled to participate in the appropriate pension scheme which is available by the College at the time. Please seek further information from College s HR Department. 12 HOLIDAYS 12.1 The College's holiday year runs from 1 September to 31 August. 12.2 Subject to you working the number of hours specified in your annual schedule of work, you are entitled to statutory paid holidays. 12.3 Holiday hours will be calculated at the rate of 13% of your annual timetabled sessional hours in each complete holiday year, inclusive of bank holidays (pro-rated if your employment commences after 1 September). This calculation is based on 231 full time working days, and 22 days annual leave and 8 days public holidays during the academic year (30 / 231 x 100 = 13%). For example if you are timetabled for 500 hours for the academic year you will be entitled to 65 leave hours (500 x 13% = 65). 12.4 For the avoidance of doubt, the holiday hours (for which you receive an element of pay as part of your hourly rate as detailed in clause 9.1) are to be taken in addition to the annual timetabled hours you are required to work. 12.5 There is no entitlement to a payment in lieu in respect of any holiday untaken at the end of the holiday year nor any option to carry leave forward to the next leave year. 12.6 The College maintains the right to refuse a request for leave having regard to the reasonable requirements of the College's business.
