Hour of Employment means each hour during which an Employee performs service (or is treated as performing service as required by law) for the Employer and, except in the case of military service, for which he is directly or indirectly paid, or entitled to payment, by the Employer (including any back pay irrespective of mitigation of damages), all as determined in accordance with applicable DOL Regulations.
Hour of Employment means an hour for which an individual receives credit pursuant to section 3.7.
Hour of Employment means: (1) Each hour for which an Employee is paid, or entitled to payment, for the performance of duties for an Employer.
