English term or phrase: "Phone in" or "on call" status
Buenas,

Estoy traduciendo un manual de una empresa y aparece lo siguiente:

When on jury duty, employees must report for work whenever their presence is not required at court, including during “phone in” or “on call” status.

Sé que "on call" es cuando están de guardia, pero no encuentro qué es "phone in".

¿Alguna sugerencia?

Gracias,

Explanation:
Los términos "phone in status" u "on call status" no significan que los empleados que han sido requeridos para prestar servicio como miembros de un jurado están de guardia telefónica sino que han sido asignados como personas disponibles para (probablemente pero no con absoluta certeza) prestar este servicio. Esto significa que durante un periodo de tiempo determinado (por ejemplo, dos meses) tendrán que llamar periódicamente a un sistema telefónico automatizado para recibir instrucciones sobre si deberán presentarse o no en un juicio.

Es simplemente que se les ha seleccionado como posibles miembros de un jurado (se les ha calificado como disponibles) y por ello tienen que realizar estas llamadas.

Estos términos pertenecen al ordenamiento judicial estadounidense por lo que yo añadiría el término original en inglés entre paréntesis (como referencia concreta).

Traducción:

"Siempre que hayan sido requeridos para prestar servicio como miembros de un jurado, los empleados deberán presentarse en su puesto de trabajo cuando su presencia en el tribunal no sea necesaria, incluyendo cuando se encuentren en estado/situación de disponibilidad ("on call status")."

"On Call Status & Reporting Information: As a prospective juror, you should expect to remain ON CALL for a period up to two months starting on your summons date. This does not mean that you
appear everyday for two months. It does mean **you are obligated to call the jury automated phone system** each Friday after 5PM for reporting instructions. You are required to appear only as needed.
Within your two months of on call service, you may be required to appear for more than one jury selection. Actual in-court attendance is usually less than ten days and the average length of a jury trial is
2 - 7 days and, once a juror has served on a trial, the clerk will make every effort not to call that juror back for another jury selection."

"When a juror is placed in this status rather than report daily to the jury assembly room in the Hennepin County Government Center the juror is allowed to call a special message line to receive instructions on a daily basis. If you are placed on the call-in status you should call the jury office the Sunday evening prior to your start date to see if you need to report in at 8:15am the first Monday of orientation. The jurors will then continue to call the special phone line as instructed. The jurors call at 12:15pm for instructions about reporting on the same day at 1:30pm to the jury assembly room or they are instructed to call again after 6:30pm for further instructions. The 6:30pm phone instructions will inform the juror to report at 9:00am the following working day or to call the message line again at 12:15pm the following working day."

de guardia o guardia telefónica


Explanation:
Dada la redacción de la oración original, yo lo traduciría "(...) los empleados deberán presentarse a trabajar toda vez que su presencia no se requiera en la corte/tribunales, incluso mientras se encuentren de guardia o guardia telefónica."
Esa es mi sugerencia, buena suerte!
