The Working Time Regulations 1998 as amended (WTR) were introduced to implement the EC Working Time Directive (93/104) (‘the Directive’). WTR apply to workers under a contract of employment or any other contract, whether express or implied, to provide services personally, and set down the minimum conditions with regard to weekly working time, rest entitlements and annual leave.
