Telephone Call Received Whilst At Home On Rest Day Or After Tour Of Duty

Contrary to popular belief, there is no provision or entitlement to four hours payment  (suitably enhanced) for receiving a telephone call at home.

If, however, a call is received and as a result of that call you are required or instructed to go somewhere, or perform duty, then the view is that this may well be a recall to duty and be eligible for the appropriate amount of compensation.

Answering the telephone does not constitute a recall to duty.
