German term

Zeitarbeitskonto

German to English Bus/Financial Human Resources Staff contracts
Still on my contract staff hire contract:

In the section on working hours:

Der VERLIEHER verpflichtet sich, sein bereitgestelltes Zeitarbeitspersonal an dem tarifvertraglich vereinbarten Zeitarbeitskonto teilnehmen zu lassen und dieses stets zu unterstützen. Die Inanspruchnahme des Zeitkontos kann der ENTLEIHER in Absprache mit dem VERLEIHER z.B. im Falle mangelnder Auslastung oder fehlender Lieferungen veranlassen.

My initial instinct was that this was some kind of flexitime, but, somewhat disconcertingly, I can't find any corroboration for this. Has anyone come across this term before?

Many thanks!

I think this would fit your context: temporary staff are to be allowed to participate in the working time account scheme.
