Common use of Assigning Work Clause in Contracts

Assigning Work. It is the intent of the parties that the principle of eight (8) hours work for-eight (8) hours pay shall be applied. In order to carry out this intent the Authority may assign employees, who would otherwise not be performing work but would be entitled to pay by reason of other provisions of the contract (for example, guarantee and intervening time provisions), to work of a kind similar to their regular and usual duty. It is understood, however, that layover time, or other similar allowed or penalty time shall be considered as part of the working time of the employee, and the employee shall not be subject to assign- ment to other duty during such periods.
