Weekly rest.

Right, I have been doing the jib for 8 years and I like to think I know what I'm talking about but since my last job I've been on agency and I'm just confused by weekly rest.

Basically the agency is making me do 2 days, 1 day off, then again 2 days, then 1 day off and so on.

Because I'm doing nights, I get at least 36- 39 hours off beween my last day at work and the day I start night shift. Have done it just for 2 weeks for now, but tachomaster hasn't registered any of my 36 hours rests as reduced, because I don't fully reduce to 24 hours but to 36-39.

I've asked the place I'm working at access to Tachomaster today, and apparently I still got a reduced weekly rest available by this Monday🫨

I tought I would have to pay back my reduced weekly rests (I think about 12 hours so far accumalated in 2 weeks) but tachomaster is telling me different.

It seems like my midweek 36-39 hours are being counted as full weekly rest ans I'm just lost as to how to avoid infringement as I got a few from when I was at my last job.

Any help would be much appreciated.
