Re: Not office hours? No contact
Yup. I've done years of call out in the past, company phone (pager before that!). But I got payed an hourly rate for being available, and then an overtime rate if I actually got called, and to cover the time I had to actually do something.
I was given the option many years ago to drop off the on-call rota, and took that option (I wanted my life back!). Still had the company phone for a good few years afterwards, but it was always turned off at the end of the work day, and turned back on the next work day.
