The implementing rules shall determine whether and how compensation is granted for such loss of time in excess of regular working hours.
External steering replacements.
(1) In the case of external procedures, compensation shall be granted for costs linked to the effective crossing of the distance (Section 3) and compensation for the necessary ancillary costs related to the purpose of external management.

For the longest period of time allocation may be granted, the implementing rules shall be laid down.
(2) Where it is possible for a person temporarily assigned to return to residence on a daily basis, it shall be granted instead of the reimbursement of the expenditure shown for travel to and from the place of employment as a work trip and a supplement to the diet to be adjusted by the Government by the Regulation.

(3) The implementing rules shall determine whether and under what conditions compensation is due to the temporarily allocated persons for travelling to the family.
Reimbursements on receipt and transfer of staff.
Reimbursement of removal expenses.
(1) Reimbursement of removal expenses connected with the transfer from the previous place of residence to a new place of employment, after, in the case of a place in its vicinity, from which work may be regularly carried out or commuted, shall be granted only where the transfer of staff member has not taken place in his private interest, to the extent that the expenditure actually incurred is normal.
(2) The employer may arrange for the transfer to his own account if the staff member has no reasonable objection to this method of transfer.

Separate.

Which employee is to be assimilated to employees married, shall lay down implementing rules.
(2) Paragraph 5, paragraph 1, the second sentence and paragraphs 2 and 3 apply mutatis mutandis.
The provisions on compensation under Part II of this Act shall not apply to cases where the nature of the work itself causes the job to change, or where external work is part of the regular work tasks of the person doing it; in particular, cannot be regarded as a work trip where the staff member makes a journey for the purpose of carrying out a regular job and where there is a change in the place of employment with the nature of that employment. The implementing rules shall determine whether and where reduced compensation may be granted.
Silence.
The right to reimbursement under this law shall cease if it has not been exercised within one year of the cessation of the facts which make this entitlement conditional.
