Iowa Code r. 875-220.16 - Compensable hours of work
(1)
Compensable hours of work generally include all of the time during which an
employee is on duty on the employer's premises or at a prescribed workplace, as
well as all other time during which the employee is suffered or permitted to
work for the employer. The time includes all preshift and postshift activities
that are an integral part of the employee's principal activity or that are
closely related to the performance of the principal activity, such as attending
roll call, writing up and completing tickets or reports, and washing and
reracking fire hoses.
(2) Time
spent away from the employer's premises under conditions that are so
circumscribed that they restrict the employee from effectively using the time
for personal pursuits also constitutes compensable hours of work.
(3) Normal home-to-work travel is not
compensable, even where the employee is expected to report to work at a
location away from the location of the employer's premises.
(4) A police officer, who has completed the
tour of duty and who is given a patrol car to drive home and use on personal
business, is not working during the travel time, even where the radio must be
left on so that the officer can respond to emergency calls.
