For example three 5-minute calls occurring within 30 minutes shall correspond to ½ an hour of active work. If a telephone consultation on standby results in the immediate departure of a veterinarian for active work, then one active work hour shall be paid for the said telephone consultation. Compensation for active work hours arising shall comply with the same principles as active work hours arising from actual work. No increase under the last hospital on-duty work paragraph shall be payable for active work hours of telephone consultation.
