Judgement for the case Prison Service v Bewly

Table Of Contents

  • Plaintiff’s employers and union reached a collective agreement that purported to exclude Reg 10(1), i.e. no need to breaks of 11 hours in each 24 hour period.

  • Plaintiff then sued its employer for breach of reg 10, saying that for a collective agreement to exclude reg 10 under a collective agreement, it must do so explicitly.

  • EAT disagreed, saying that under Reg 23 a collective agreement can exclude or modify Reg 10, but there is no need for this to be explicit.
