A lot of companies that pay by salary think business hours are 24/7.

Yeah, the added gray area here is a little uncomfortable. I have never seen a startup actually define what business hours are. What if you work late 2 nights a week, and then the third night on a side project. Could that be interpreted as business hours? Do business hours vary by individual?
