1.3 Work: duties, conditions and pay

What do you do?

People
may ask you about your job. They can ask and you can answer in
different ways:

What
do you do? I’m
(+ job) e.g. a banker / an engineer / a teacher / a builder

What’s
your job? I
work in
(+ place or general area) e.g. a bank / marketing

What
do you do for a living?
I
work for
(+ name of company) e.g. Union Bank

Note:
‘Work’
is usually an uncountable noun, so you cannot say ‘a work’. If you
want to use
the indefinite article you must say ‘a job’, e.g. She hasn’t got a
job at the moment.

What does that involve? (=
What do you do in your job?)

When
people ask you to explain your work/job, they may want to know your
main responsibilities
(= your duties / what you have to do), or something about your daily
routine
(=
what you do every day/week). They can ask like this: What
does that
(i.e. your job) involve?

Main responsibilities

I’m
in
charge of
(= responsible
for)
all deliveries out of the factory.

I
have to deal
with
any complaints (= take all necessary action if there are complaints).

I
run
the coffee bar and restaurant in the museum (= I am in control of it
/1 manage it).

Note:
We
often use responsible
for / in charge of
for part of something, e.g. a department or some
of the workers; and run
for control of all
of something, e.g. a company or a shop.

Daily duties/routines

I
have to go
to / attend
(fml)
a
lot of meetings.

I
visit/see/meet clients
(= people I do business with or for).

I
advise
clients (= give them help and my opinion).

It
involves doing
quite a lot of paperwork
(a general word we use for routine work that involves
paper e.g. writing letters, filling in forms, etc.). Note the —ing
form after involve.

Pay

Most
workers are paid
(=
receive money) every month and this pay goes directly into their bank
account. It is called a salary.
We can express the same idea using the verb to
earn:

My
salary
is $60,000 a year. (= I earn
$60,000
a year.)

With
many jobs you get (= receive) holiday
pay
and sick
pay
(when you are ill). If you want to
ask about holidays, you can say:

How
much
holiday
do you get? or
How
many
weeks’ holiday
do you get?

The
total amount of money you receive in a year is called your income.
This could be your salary
from one job, or the salary from two different jobs you have. And on
this income you
have to pay
part to the government — called income
tax.

Working hours

For
many people in Britain, these are 8.30-9.00 a.m. to 5.00-5.30 p.m.
Consequently people
often talk about a nine-to-five
job
(= regular working hours). Some people have flexi-time
(= they can start an hour or so earlier or finish later); and some
have to do
shiftwork
(= working at different times, e.g. days one week and nights the next
week). Some people
also work
overtime
(= work extra hours). Some people are paid to do/work
overtime,
others are not paid.
