Being on call for work
In English, to be "on call" for work means that you are the backup person. If my colleague is working and I am on call, then I will be the person to help if my colleague needs assistance. If my colleague gets sick and cannot work, then I will go and do my colleagues work. How can I properly describe this concept in Chinese?

In Hong Kong, "on-call" and "standby" are officially translated as 候召 and 候命 respectively. I'm not sure if these two terms are used in the same way in other places. Just for your reference.
