Daily Commute. Daily commute travel applies to daily travel to and from a construction, shutdown, project, or maintenance contract site. Where the employee is not commuting from his normal place of residence, the travel distance is measured between the worksite and his assigned point of accommodation. Where the employee commutes from his normal place of residence, the travel distance is measured between the worksite and the nearest of his residence or the shop which ever is the lesser. For the purposes of calculating daily travel on these projects, there will be a travel free zone of twenty-five (25) road kilometres from the work site. Travel will be paid outside the travel free zone to and from the assigned accommodation at the applicable rate, calculated at 80 km per hour. The maximum overtime payable for such travel time shall be 1.5X straight time rates and such travel shall not be used to compute double time calculations. When the transportation provided by the employer, for the conveyance of the employee, is delayed by extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the employee, the employee shall be paid for all such time at the applicable rate.
