Common use of Home Base Clause in Contracts

Home Base. (a) All Employees shall, at the time of commencement of this Agreement or at the time of employment (whichever is the latter), be notified of their Home Base, which shall be either the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Office or the Leeton Office. (b) Some Employees may have two Home Bases on particular terms. For example, an Employee may have the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Office as a Home Base for Mondays to Wednesdays, and the Leeton Office on Thursdays and Fridays. (c) MI may change an Employee’s Home Base by providing the Employee with at least four weeks’ notice in writing. To avoid any doubt, if this change is permanent, the applicable sections of Clause 9 will apply. (d) In the event that an Employee is required to attend for duties at a location other than their Home Base (Location X): (i) all travel time to and from their Home Base to Location X will count as time worked; and (ii) in the event that the Employee does not travel from their Home Base (for example, because they travel to Location X directly from home), the time that it would usually take to travel from their Home Base to Location X will count as time worked. For those applicable Employees employed in Group B, Clause 42B will apply. (e) To avoid any doubt, nothing within this Clause 14.2 prevents or inhibits MI from exercising its powers of direction under Clause 14.1.
