Questions and instructions

Literal question

How many hours a week do you usually work at this location, excluding unpaid mealtimes and on-call hours?

Interviewer instructions

This question asks about the length of the regular working week at the respondent’s main work location. If the respondent is unsure what is meant by “on-call hours”, provide an explanation such as: “These are hours such as during nights and weekends, when you must be available for duty but do not have to be physically present on the hospital ward or in a clinic or laboratory, except when patient needs require it.”
