Section 17-659-42 - Determination of number of hours and work days assigned to TLF workers(a) The number of work hours or work days assigned shall be determined on the basis of the financial assistance grant amount divided by the state's legal minimum wage rate. Payment for TLF work performed shall not be considered wages and the use of the state's minimum wage rate, in computing the number of TLF work hours or days assigned, shall serve merely as a determinant.(b) The determined number of hours or work days shall be prorated equally between a couple provided the number of assigned days exceed twelve days. If the number of assigned days is twelve or less, the recipient couple shall be allowed to elect one member to fulfill the TLF requirements. The elected individual shall not be interchangeable from one adult to the other, unless mutually agreed upon by the adult recipient and department's eligibility worker.(c) The number of work days and hours shall be limited by the following conditions: (1) Hours of work shall be limited to eight hours maximum per day, thirty-two hours per week, during daylight hours unless a voluntary approval is otherwise secured from the recipient; and(2) Work may be assigned for any day of the week except Saturdays, Sundays, or state legal holidays.[Eff 3/19/93; am 9/26/97; am and comp 3/27/09] (Auth: HRS §§ 346-14, 346-71, 346-102) (Imp: HRS §§ 346-31, 346-102, 346-103)
