Scheduling between the two

Working hours overlap from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm SAST, which is 9:00 am to 4:00 pm GMT. Anything inside that window falls in the normal working day at both ends.

Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is used in as a fixed UTC+0 offset. Note that the UK itself leaves GMT every summer — see British Time below.
