Plumpton College are advertising a Night Cleaner job, 'part time'. Part time to me has always meant half a full week (say, 20 hours) or perhaps less. This job is 32.5 hours, working from Sunday to Thursday. It's remarkable how definitions change.

Surely part time means less that full time? So if your full time staff work 40 hours a week then anything less that that is part time isn't it?

The official definition of "full time" is 30 hours or more. (source: Job Centre) Even though many people are still expected to attend for 40 hours or more by their employers. Possibly, Plumpton College are trying to designate the vacancy as part -time in order to avoid paying their share of NI or pension contributions?

I think NI is a function of how much you are paid, not how many hours you work. 30 hr x minimum wage would be more than enough to trigger employer-NI for an employee ( unless they could be categorised as "an apprentice" or "self-employed").
