 Dear Sir/Madam,

I am an employer and I would like to change my working hours. Below with details:-

Current - Mon - Fri (9am - 6pm, 1pm-2pm lunch break) = total 40 working hours

To change - Mon - Fri (9am - 6pm, 1pm-2pm lunch break) Sat (9am - 1pm) = total 44 working hours

As I understand, labourlaw is not exceeding 48 hours p/week. I would like to know couple of things:-

1) How many days notice do I need to issue for this change?

2) I am not increasing their salary as this complements the labourlaw and am not breaching any regulations. Is that correct? 

3) All my current staff are under probation at the moment. Is there any difference between confirmed and probation staff?

Appreciate any feedback and thank you in advance.

There is nothing to say how many day's notice. I think give sufficient time like one month will do. Consult the Labour Office to make sure.

As far as the benefits under the law are concerned, there is no difference between confirmed or unconfirmed staff.
