4.9.3 Standby
The operation of a system of standby duty at an employee's
home shall be a matter for determination by the authority.
Subject to the foregoing, these arrangements shall
apply to an employee whose ordinary remuneration does
not take account of a requirement to be available for
call-out, otherwise than under Clause 4.9 after completion
of normal working hours.
An employee paid under these arrangements shall undertake
when on standby duty, after completion of the normal
day's work, to be available for immediate call-out for
duty, if and when required at any time outwith normal
working hours.
A standby duty allowance shall be made for each complete
week of standby duty actually performed. Payment will
also be made for broken periods of standby duty.
An employee required to standby on a general or public
holiday shall be paid an allowance for the 24 hour period,
and shall be granted a day off with pay at a later date
whether called out or not on the general or public holiday.
An employee on standby duty required to turn out for
work outwith normal working hours during the period
of standby shall be paid in accordance with the provisions
of Sub-Clause 4.4.2.
Allowances paid under these arrangements shall not
be taken into account in calculating payment for annual
leave or sickness allowances.
If an authority operates standby arrangements which,
taken as a whole, are more favourable to the employee
than the arrangements set out in this Clause, then those
more favourable arrangements shall continue to apply
so long as they remain more favourable.
