Booking Conditions
There is a one shift system in place, i.e., it is only possible to book “whole shifts” (one shift = up to 8 hours). It is basically not an option to book a single hour. If the required time exceeds 8 hours, we charge an overtime fee for each started hour. The overtime hours or unused services cannot be credited or “withdrawn” at a later point. Besides, a 25% surcharge is applied to the overtime hours beginning with the 9th hour, 50% beginning with the 13th hour, and 100% beginning with the 16th hour, increasing the daily rate proportionally.
There are weekend and holiday surcharges of 50% and 100%, respectively, and a night surcharge 25% for the whole shift. For the night shift surcharge to apply, at least 2 hours of the booked shift must lie within the 10 PM – 5 AM time bracket. A reasonable break (at least 30 minutes) must be granted after a whole shift. Break time and duration will be arranged individually. Breaks are not charged for.
For short time bookings, i.e. bookings with start within 24 hours, a 20% surcharge is applied. Cancellations must be made in time. If a booking is cancelled later than 48 hours before the start of the shift, 100% will be charged. One-time ENG crew asignments are possible only exceptionally and upon agreement. Depending on the additional costs, a minimum of 50% surcharge will be applied to the daily rate.
