§ 8-13-102.1. Period of employment - relation to conservation of fuel
(1) The general assembly hereby finds and declares that in order to give full effect to state programs for the conservation of fuel and not to impede or prevent the execution of any fuel conservation powers the governor may impose pursuant to part 3 of article 20 of title 24, C.R.S., it is necessary to enact this section. The general assembly further finds and declares that it is necessary to enact this section in order for certain industries to support and cooperate with such state programs and powers and to assist their employees in the conservation of fuel by providing opportunity for certain employers to establish four-day workweeks thereby omitting one day of travel to and from work for employees.
(2) For purposes of section 8-13-102, "period of employment" means time spent which is directly related to an employee's performance of his primary job duties. "Period of employment" does not include time spent, whether or not compensation is paid, which is not directly related to the employee's performance of his primary job duties, including, but not limited to, meal periods, travel time, rest periods, and waiting time.
