Tempo Útil

Portuguese to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) Service Contract - Insurance
Prezados Colegas,
Gostaria de saber a melhor tradução, do português para o inglês, da expressão "tempo útil" no seguinte contexto:
"A Contratada garante um nível de serviço de disponibilidade de seus sistemas em 80% do TEMPO ÚTIL em regime 24 horas por 7 dias na semana, sendo que este nível de serviço deve ser garantido dentro do período acumulado de 12 (doze) meses."
Gostaria de saber se a expressão "useful time" se aplica a este contexto. Em caso contrário, o que vocês sugerem?
Desde já, agradeço sua valiosíssima contribuição.

Service availability on a 24/7 basis.

It is in reference to the amount of time services are available and working based on a 24/7 system.
Example sentence:

5.5 The Contracted party guarantees a (minimum) service availability of 80% on a 24-hour, 7-day per week basis.
