In most cases whole-time employment is 37.5 hours per week.

This can vary depending on the type of employment you do.

General Practitioner (GP) practice

They’re responsible for setting the standard working week for their staff. This will be stated in the contract of employment.

GP practices must seek independent legal advice if they’re unsure about setting terms and conditions of employment for their practice staff.
