Totally.
The people on these contracts within our organisation are branch cashiers. They left and asked to be able to work ad-hoc as hours where available.
From our news letter, each one of the <50 contracts has been reviewed by the staff union to ensure that it suited the employee.
They retain staff perks like free banking, staff mortgage (if qualifying), staff portal discounts, access to health insurance and are of course paid for training. They also get holiday pay, are included in the bonus scheme and get pro-rata bank holiday pay calculated at the end of the year. So it's not a bad deal if that's what they choose.
