- I understand that the Company does not receive any benefit, financial or otherwise, for any work performed by me with the Client in a Work Week beyond the Authorized Weekly Hours, and that it is a financial hardship to the Company if I work in excess of the Authorized Weekly Hours because the Company will not be paid by the Payor or the Client for such time;
