Regulation 27 Hours treated as worked for the purpose of determining whether the worker works more than the basic hours in the calculation year and, where the worker does, the number of salaried hours work in that year
The hours listed in sub-paragraphs (a) to (c) are treated as worked for the purposes of determining whether the worker works more than the basic hours in the calculation year (in accordance with regulation 26(1)(d)) and, where the worker does, the number of hours of salaried hours work in that year (in accordance with regulation 28)—
hours a worker spends training when the worker would otherwise be working;
hours a worker is available at or near a place of work for the purposes of working, unless the worker is at home;
hours a worker spends travelling for the purposes of working, when the worker would otherwise be working, unless the travelling is between—
the worker’s home, or a place where the worker is temporarily residing other than for the purposes of working, and
a place of work or a place where an assignment is carried out.
In paragraph (1)(b), hours when a worker is available only includes hours when the worker is awake for the purposes of working, even if a worker is required to sleep at or near a place of work and the employer provides suitable facilities for sleeping.
In paragraph (1)(c), hours treated as hours when the worker would otherwise be working include—
hours when the worker is travelling for the purpose of carrying out assignments to be carried out at different places between which the worker is obliged to travel, and which are not places occupied by the employer;
hours when the worker is travelling where it is uncertain whether the worker would otherwise be working because the worker’s hours of work vary either as to their length or in respect of the time at which they are performed.
