Definition
Working time refers to the duration during which an employee is engaged in carrying out their work tasks or is required to be present at a designated place of work, available to the employer. This definition is crucial for determining the applicability of various provisions within the Working Hours Act, including those related to remuneration, rest periods, and maximum working hours. It generally excludes travel time unless the travel itself constitutes work.
