SINGAPORE - The lawyer for transport operator SBS Transit sought to show in the High Court on Wednesday that bus drivers benefit from what it calls a"built-in overtime" component in their pay.

Senior Counsel Davinder Singh suggested that Mr Chua's misunderstanding of built-in overtime was a reason for the"wrong" numbers which led the former driver to allege that he hadMr Chua, 62, who worked for SBST from April 2017 to February 2020, is seeking unspecified damages from SBST, claiming among other things, that he was underpaid for overtime work.

He also argued that he should be paid for"idle time" - the time spent waiting to start work at the bus depot and waiting for the company transport after work. Once a driver works for 43.5 hours, which excludes rest and meal times, he would be paid his salary plus the built-in overtime.Mr Singh said overtime pay as well as the bus drivers' weekly allowance were computed on a higher rate because of the inclusion of the built-in overtime, or BIOT, component.Mr Singh added that it was clear from the documents before the court that Mr Chua never worked more than 72 overtime hours as he had claimed.
