A simple solution here is to compensate a flat rate based on an assumed 30 minute travel time. If employees are called to a secondary location, add on the travel time from the original location to the new location, divided by two if it’s less than 45 extra minutes.
Right, some will be higher, some will be lower. Using the same value for everyone is the compromise we’d have to make in order to avoid biasing the hiring process.

When I studied sociology, the common time spent commuting was generally 1 hour each way.
My own commute by public transport or bicycle is 50 minutes to 1 hr
