Day 167 - 02 Oct 95 - Page 56
1 Q. So if, for instance, it were a question of producing the
2 schedules, if they are still available, for something like
3 1994 until Mr. Logan left -- let us suppose he left at the
4 beginning of November, that is ten months; that is
5 something like 43 or 44 schedules because ----
6 A. That is right.
7
8 Q. -- if I worked it out accurately it would probably be about
9 43 or 44 weeks, but it would mean about ----
10 A. 300 individual.
11
12 Q. -- 280 or 300 sets of time sheets each something like seven
13 or eight pages long?
14 A. That is right.
15
16 MR. MORRIS: From my understanding of what you said it would be
17 a total of about 300 pages each week -- I see what you
18 mean, each day ----
19
20 MR. JUSTICE BELL: There is one every day and each time sheet
21 seven or eight pages long. That is what you are telling
22 me?
23 A. That is correct, yes. Each night you would get a
24 print-out which would have, for instance, Jagon Flint and
25 the hours he had worked and there would be a space and the
26 next person. It would show you whatever that person --
27 whichever person clocked in and out that day it would show
28 you when they clocked in and out, and you would get a
29 report off each night.
30
31 Q. The long hours or many hours -- because there are only so
32 many minutes in an hour -- so the large number of hours or
33 shifts close together tend to happen in the summer time, do
34 they, if they happen at all in Bath, or is that not right?
35 A. Probably the summer time or Christmas, as they are the
36 two busiest periods. But we do actually employ more people
37 then than we would do for the rest of the year, so ...
38 I mean, the only reason there is, for people that have
39 excessive hours, is if they want them. There is no reason
40 for us to have to schedule them.
41
42 MR. MORRIS: The actual schedules rather than time sheets, the
43 schedules are a weekly document?
44 A. That is right; every week.
45
46 Q. How many pages are the schedules? Is it one sheet that is
47 put on the notice board?
48 A. It used to be two or three sheets. It is now about a
49 dozen sheets because the computer prints out a lot of
50 reports that are associated with the schedule. So the
51 computer -- when it was handwritten you used to be able to
52 get on maybe three sheets. Now the computer prints a part
53 of a day with some reports for that day, then another part
54 of a day on another piece of paper so they are altogether.
55
56 Q. Right. What about for 1994, was that hand done at that
57 time?
58 A. That, until about the middle of 1994, was handwritten;
59 yes, about June or July when we had the refit.
