Additional Information

The form is fairly standard practice nowadays in the ‘Gas’ industry. Unfortunately this type of absence is happening more and more often; this is the mechanism usually required to protect the company and it's customer's from letting them down. This type of behaviour is particularly evident on the repairs side of the business in the winter where there are jobs left towards the end of the day but the engineer goes missing prior to the contracted finish time.
