Normal and premium time is associated with the Consultant, Specialist and Associated Specialist contracts. It refers to the times of the days and weekends when an enhanced PA or Session may be appropriate.
For example, in the Consultant contract:
- 07:00 – 19:00 is normal time.
- 19:00-07:00 is premium time.
A PA (Programmed Activity) in the Consultant contract is the equivalent of 4 hours work in normal time and 3 hours in premium time.
You can see further information regarding the from the BMA.
NOTE: There may be contractual or territorial differences between when normal time and premium time is or whether it is in fact applied at all.
