Standby Hours Worked Sample Clauses
The 'Standby Hours Worked' clause defines how time spent by an employee or contractor on standby—ready to work if needed but not actively engaged in tasks—is treated for compensation purposes. Typically, this clause outlines the conditions under which standby hours are counted as payable work time, such as requiring the individual to remain on-site or within a certain response time. Its core function is to clarify when and how standby periods are compensated, ensuring both parties understand their obligations and reducing disputes over pay for non-active work periods.
