Can an employee request lieu time for travel time from home to the airport if the flight is at 8pm, beyond a 7 hour work day

It really depends on what is in your travel policy and if the employee is a manager, but yes, if the travel is outside of the normal operating procedures (like for a travelling sales person) then it is not outside of the norm for there to be a mileage consideration and/or total travel time consideration.

We have members that have given a day in lieu for travel if it is a total of 4 or more hours because calculating total time, distance, etc. can be burdensome, especially if there are airport delays, missed connections, etc.
