They aren't being misleading, they are probably just following the advice of their crooked accountants. 1hr = 8hr???. Same accounting used to cook the books.
Or they may be getting mixed up and if a LAME stops work for 1 hr then the manager used to replace him would have to work 8 hrs for the same output.
Aaah how times have changed. I seem to remember being dragged in front of my manager and HR who tried to force me to work 1 hour OT last dispute.
