Milage Reimbusment for Non-Standard Hours?

Are there any IRS pubilications that address milage reimbursment when an employee travles to work on non-standard hours? A co-worker is salary and works Monday - Friday but will occasionally be on call and need to work on Saturday and Sunday. Historically he has recieved milage reimbersment for trips taken to the office to perform off hours support both during the week (after his normal shift) and on weekends.

He was informed that this will stop since the business cannot deduct milage between an employees home and their primary worksite.

Is there a section of an IRS publication that would disallow the reimbersment for the additional trips made outside of the employees normal work schedule?

There is no deduction. If your company were to reimburse you, they would add every penny to your paycheck as income.

Your coworker may be in for a nasty surprise when the company goes back and adds any reimbursements they gave him to his paycheck and issues corrected W-2s.

The publication to read is publication 463. It's the one that outlines that commuting expenses are never deductible.
