Did you know that your time clock doesn't always stop ticking when you leave the office? Indeed, there are scenarios where the journey itself is part of the job. Get ready to rethink your understanding of working hours. Travel time is one of those “soft” hidden activities employers may not think of as being compensable. The truth, however, is that there are circumstances where travel time is compensable. The key issue in many instances is whether an employee is engaged in travel as part of the employee’s principal activity and/or for the benefit and convenience of the employer.
