Incidental Work. Incidental work is a comparatively minor task that is complementary to a principal job. In determining whether a task is incidental and thus properly assignable to the tradespersons performing the principal job, the following points must be considered (past practice or normal scope of the trade has no significance in incidental work): • Time involved in relation to the principal job. (A minor task or series of minor tasks performed sporadically over the duration of the principal job are incidental even though the cumulative time may be fairly large.) • Whether the task is within the capabilities of the principal tradesperson. • Whether the task can safely be performed by the principal tradesperson. Incidental tasks are not limited to those arising in the course of the principal job, but may occur also at the beginning or end of the job.
