Sounds as if he's a nurse that attends to people needing services at their homes. He gives care, shots or medications to the patients that cannot easily get around yet are able to semi-take care of themselves as their homes.
The route may changes and on any given day he may have an additional person that may need help.... so showing up early for work is part of his hourly benefit. As he wrote earlier, he is limited to 10 hours a week of overtime.... so regarless if he shows up early every day and works through "lunch" every day, or works beyond, or gets an "emergence need" call at or near the end of each day, he can only get 10 hours of OT.
It's a standard practice for these mobile "nurses" to be paid this way, and they have to be willing to be "on call" as well.
