Pamphlet 9A - Labour Standards
Hours of Work - Motor Transport

Part III of the Canada Labour Code (Labour Standards)

The Motor Vehicle Operators Hours of Work Regulations modify sections 169 and 171 of Part III of the Canada Labour Code.

They cover employees in the federal motor transport industry including bus operators, city motor vehicle operators and highway motor vehicle operators involved in the interprovincial and international transport of goods or passengers and in the transport of mail on contract with Canada Post. (These are further defined in Section I - Definitions, below.)

They replace sections 169 and 171 for the employees mentioned above in the areas of standard hours of work, averaging, standard working hours for a week in which a holiday occurs, and maximum hours of work.

Information concerning subjects such as standard hours, maximum hours of work, and averaging for all employees other than those employed in the motor transport industry can be found in Pamphlet #9 - Hours of Work.
