French term

jour de garde

COVID-19 French to English Medical Medical: Health Care testing
This brief text specifies the times and prices of PCR and antigen tests available at an airport.

On certain Sundays in August, referred to as 'jour de garde', a €5 surcharge is applied to those without a Carte Vitale.

Although I understand the concept of pharmacies being on duty according to a rota, I don't understand why being on duty would entitle more money to be charged than on the other Sundays in August.

One solution would be to indicate this as an additional cost for outside usual opening times, but this does somewhat contradict the idea of being 'on duty'!

'(+5€ supplémentaires les dimanches 8, 15 et 22 août (jours de garde)'

Oui Tony!
Tony M Aug 5, 2021:
@ Asker 'on call' might work better; I think the point is, the 'pharmacie de garde' isn't necessarily 'open', but someone will be called in specially to attend to the person's needs.
Thomas Miles (asker) Aug 5, 2021:
'on-duty dates' Is my placeholder solution, but any improvements are greatly appreciated.

out-of-hours standby-rota date

Standby is one word to save trivial comments about hyphenation.

The extra pay would be for out-of-hours service: 'One solution would be to indicate this as an additional cost for outside usual opening times...'
Example sentence:

In your 20s with a degree in life sciences or pharmacy, you must have at ... and will involve participation in an out-of-hours standby rota.

This is a very good idea Adrian and worthy of consideration by any future lost translator - I have added it to my glossary.

Reference:

To clarify:

What is the difference between on-call duty and standby duty?

The basic rule is that an employee who is on standby duty

must be present for a period of time specified by the employer at a location specified by the employer and must start work immediately when called upon to do so.

In contrast, an employee on on-call duty must

ensure constant availability for a period of time specified by the employer (outside his regular working hours) but may stay at a place of his or her choice from which he or she must take action as required.
