Light Duty Pay Clause Samples
The Light Duty Pay clause defines the employer's obligation to compensate employees who are assigned to lighter or modified duties, typically due to injury or medical restrictions. Under this clause, employees may receive their regular wage or a specified rate while performing tasks that are less physically demanding or outside their usual job description. This provision ensures that employees are financially supported during periods when they cannot perform their standard duties, thereby facilitating a smoother transition back to full work and reducing the risk of wage loss during recovery.

When an employee is assigned to light duty because of a temporary physical disability or condition, the employee shall be paid at the rate of the normal duty assignment without regard to the temporary duty schedule.
