Employment Terms for Appliance Repair Technicians

If you’re thinking about joining a repair team, you probably want to know what the deal looks like before you sign anything. At Wells Appliance Repairs we keep things clear, fair, and practical. Below you’ll find the basics of our employment terms so you can decide if the job fits your life.

Key Components of the Employment Package

Contract type. Most of our techs start on a full‑time permanent contract. We also offer part‑time and seasonal contracts for those who need flexibility. Every contract spells out the notice period, probation length (usually 3 months), and any non‑compete clauses.

Pay and bonuses. Base pay is competitive for the UK market and reviewed each year. In addition to the hourly rate, you can earn performance bonuses based on the number of successful repairs, customer ratings, and extra certifications you achieve. Overtime is paid at the statutory rate, and we have a clear policy on how extra hours are recorded.

Working hours. A typical week runs Monday to Friday, 9 am–5 pm, but we understand emergencies happen. On‑call shifts are scheduled in advance, and you’ll receive a premium for any weekend or night work. We aim to keep overtime to a minimum so you can enjoy a healthy work‑life balance.

Training and certifications. Appliances evolve quickly, so we fund ongoing training. Whether it’s a new dishwasher model or the latest boiler safety standards, you’ll get paid time off to attend courses. We also cover the cost of industry certifications that boost your skill set and earning potential.

Tools and equipment. You’ll be supplied with a fully stocked tool kit, a company‑branded vehicle, and protective gear. All equipment is maintained by the company, so you never have to worry about wear‑and‑tear expenses.

How Wells Supports Its Technicians

Beyond the basics, we invest in your wellbeing. Our health‑insurance plan includes dental and vision coverage, plus a contribution toward a private pension. We run quarterly health checks and offer an employee assistance programme for any personal or professional challenges.

Safety is non‑negotiable. Every technician receives a safety briefing before heading out, and we have a 24/7 hotline for any on‑site hazards. If a job requires special permits or dangerous gas work, we handle all the paperwork so you can focus on fixing the appliance.

We also value clear communication. Your manager will meet with you monthly to review performance, discuss career goals, and address any concerns. Open feedback loops mean you’re never left guessing about where you stand.

Finally, we recognize loyalty. After two years of service, you become eligible for an additional vacation day each year. At five years, you qualify for a loyalty bonus and priority for senior‑tech positions.

All of these terms are laid out in a straightforward employee handbook that you can read online before you start. If anything feels unclear, just ask—our HR team is happy to walk you through the details.

Bottom line: Wells Appliance Repairs aims to give you a solid paycheck, real growth opportunities, and a safe, supportive work environment. If that sounds like the kind of job you want, get in touch with our hiring team today.
