Can the hours of time off taken as compensation for a shortened weekly rest be divided?

Explanation

Correct answer: No.

Hours taken as compensation for a reduced weekly rest period must be used in a single, uninterrupted block. They must be attached to another rest period lasting at least 9 hours, for example, to a daily or weekly rest period. According to the regulations, it is not possible to split this compensation into smaller parts.
