Explanation:
Consignatie is where you have to be available in case you're needed, i.e. you have to 'stand by'.

-> "Artikel 13 Consignatie
1. Onder consignatie wordt verstaan de verplichting van de werknemer om bereikbaar en beschikbaar te zijn om na oproep arbeid te verrichten."
CAO Kaaspakhuisbedrijf, http://www.sdu.nl/staatscourant/cao/caopdf/9651.pdf

-> "Section 16.3 Stand-By Duty
(a) An employee assigned to be on standby to answer calls outside of
regularly scheduled hours shall receive two hours' pay at the regular straight-time rate of pay for each 16 hours of standby time."
