What is the legal amount of hours?
Answers:
If you were unemployed the job center would expect you to travel up to one hour each way by public transport.
there is no set limit
Eh?
i dont think there is one. The Working Time Regulations limit to a 48 hour working week unless you opt out but the simple answer is if you dont want to travel far then move closer to your job. It is your responsibility to get there as an employee.
i don't think there is a legal no. of hrs for travel only the amount of time spent in work. also i think it depends if it is a one of for training, how much you earn and how much it costs, but i think about 1 hr each way is acceptable from previous work experience. i currently do between 1 - 1.5 hrs each way, and each day
Sorry, no. Only legal limits for actually working.
there is a time limit
There is no legal limit in respect of your personal choice of where you live in relation to where you work. But I guess the firm is moving and/or you are being asked to move at another place, thus extending your distance to work. Sadly there is no rule that I can find regarding this either.
If my supposition is right you probably need help from your union if you have one
There is no legal time or distance limit - at the end of the day the company cannot make you do it. I appreciate that pressure to comply can be brought by managers, however you can always opt for a job where travel is not an issue. You might try to negotiate with them for a payment for travelling or for a position closer to home.
The option to walk away from the job is yours.
Good luck

Hi i travel too and get paid a travelling rate. This is less than the normal rate, but try to negotiate it. Sounds like a mean company to me.
no
but i would change jobs
every company differs, but i wouldnt work for some one if they didnt pay me for every minute i did
get a diff job dear
If they aren't going to pay you for the travel time involved, maybe you should suggest telling them they need to pay for the nights you will be in a hotel room and if they are still stubborn, then I think its time to find a new job. But be sure to give at least a 2 week notice and if you are a good employee, that is when you might see a positive change.
no limit.
if youre commuting too much - i assume yes - get the company to foot the bill for gas, time etc.
