Borrow/Loan
The temporary reassignment of an employee to other task reporting or compensation
requirements to allow the business to meet unexpected, short-term, fluctuations in staffing or
work load. Typically, this kind of reassignment is done informally at a local level, where HR
isn’t involved and a new job record isn’t created. Companies may have specific rules about
how long an employee may be borrowed/loaned, how and where productive, non-productive,
and compensated absence time will be charged, and what business rules to apply to the
borrowed employee’s time for the purpose of compensation and benefit entitlement and
administration. See also Casual work Assignment.
