About On‑Call Employment with ICF Given the seasonal or project‑specific nature of our environmental compliance work, ICF often hires environmental professionals as “On‑Call” employees. On‑Call employees are scheduled for work hours as they become available (we usually schedule work hours a few weeks ahead of time, depending on client notifications), and each on‑call employee is free to accept or refuse the hours assigned to them in a given week. On‑Call employees may work concurrent projects outside of their ICF assignment (along as their outside work does not create a conflict of interest with the work they do for ICF).
