    Appointments during working day

    Thanks all. Maybe I didn't make it clear but that is what is in his contract, not something I have changed. Do you know if there is a legal stance to non payment of wages for the hour of so he is away from site without prior authorisation ie in this circumstance?

    Unauthorised use of company vehicle
