It distinguishes standard 40-hour Monday–Friday workweeks from uncommon schedules involving weekends or fewer workdays. It also covers special tours for educational purposes, standby duty standards, and on-call limitations for determining hours of work. Chapter 3 further sets requirements for mission-based employee scheduling, distributing work schedules, and planning rest and lunch periods, including nursing mother break entitlements.","# Chapter 3\n\nTOURS OF DUTY AND SCHEDULING WORK  \n## 3.1.Tours of Duty.\n\n3.1.1.Tours of Duty.A 40-hour basic workweek scheduled Monday through Friday wherethe hours of a day and the days of a workweek constitute an employee's regularly scheduledadministrative workweek.  \n火  \n3.1.2.Uncommon Tour of Duty.Any 40-hour basic workweek scheduled to includeSaturday and/or Sunday,or one that is scheduled for four workdays or less but no more thansix days of the administrative workweek.An uncommon tour of duty may be establishedwhen necessary for efficient operations or when the cost of operations can thus be reducedwithout imposing undue hardship on employees.  \n3.1.3.Tours of Duty for Educational Purposes.Special tours of duty of not less than 40hours may be established by the supervisor for off duty educational purposes to permit anemployee to take one or more courses,related to current and anticipated needs of the AirForce,in a college,university,or other educational institution.  \n3.1.3.1.Courses taken by the employee are not training under chapter 41 of title 5 U.S.C.  \n3.1.3.2.The rearrangement of the employee's tour of duty will not appreciably interferewith the accomplishment of the mission of the position.  \n3.1.3.3.Employees cannot be paid premium pay solely because the rescheduling of thetour of duty causes them to work on a day,or during the hours of a day,when premiumpay would otherwise be required.  \n3.1.3.4.Supervisors may assign an employee to a regularly scheduled shift requiringpremium pay,for example,night pay IAW this authority,since no additional costs areincurred.  \n3.1.3.5.Supervisors must ensure appropriate time and attendance accounting andnotification is made when an employee is assigned to or changed from a special tour ofduty to prevent inadvertent payment of premium pay.(T-3)  \n3.1.4.Standby Duty.An employee is on duty,and time spent on standby duty is hours ofwork(compensable)if,for work-related reasons,the employee is restricted by official orderto a designated post of duty and is assigned to be in a state of readiness to perform work withlimitations on the employee's activities so substantial that the employee cannot use the timeeffectively for his or her own purposes.A finding that an employee's activities aresubstantially limited may not be based on the fact that an employee is subject to restrictionsnecessary to ensure that the employee will be able to perform his or her duties andresponsibilities,such as restrictions on alcohol consumption or use of certain nonprescriptionmedications.  \n3.1.4.1.An employee is not considered restricted for“work-related reasons”if,forexample,the employee remains at the post of duty voluntarily,or if the restriction is anatural result of geographic isolation or the fact that the employee resides on the agency'spremises.For example,in the case of an employee assigned to work in a remote area or  \n—1  \non a ship,the fact that the employee has limited mobility when relieved from duty wouldnot be a basis for finding that the employee is restricted for work-related reasons.Deviations from this tour should be kept to a minimum.  \n3.1.5.On-Call Status.An employee will be considered off duty and time spent in an on-callstatus shall not be considered hours of work(compensable)if:  \n3.1.5.1.The employee is allowed to leave a telephone number or to carry an electronicdevice for the purpose of being contacted,even though the employee is required toremain within a reasonable call-back radius;or  \n3.1.5.2.The employee is allowed to make arrangements such that any work which mayarise during the on-call period will be performed by another person.  \n## 3.2.Scheduling Work.\n\n3.2.1.The work of employees will be scheduled to accomplish the mission of theorganization and will correspond with the employee's actual work requirements.(T-3)  \n3.2.2.Distributing Work Schedules.Copies of work schedules for uncommon tours of dutywill be distributed in the work area or to employees(e.g.,by email,pos","cbCaia8y5vlVQ6jA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaia8y5vlVQ6jA","pdf",1714146,3,8,"English","en",105,"# 3.1
