Stand-By Allowance Clause Samples
A Stand-By Allowance clause provides compensation to a contractor or service provider when they are required to remain available for work but are unable to proceed due to delays or interruptions outside their control. Typically, this clause specifies the conditions under which the allowance is payable, such as waiting for materials, instructions, or access to the worksite, and may outline the calculation method for the allowance, such as a daily or hourly rate. Its core practical function is to ensure that contractors are fairly compensated for time lost due to circumstances beyond their control, thereby allocating the risk of project delays and encouraging timely project management.
