All employees shall be considered to have two (2) Saturdays and two (2) Sundays within any two-week period. The first day off shall be considered as a Saturday; and the second day off during the work period shall be considered as a Sunday; the third day off during the work period shall be considered as a Saturday, and the fourth day off during the work period shall be considered to be a Sunday.
Due to the unique characteristics of the work performed by Communications Operators, the City will comply with the Federal Labor Standards Act by providing a reasonable time for lunch and breaks based on operational needs.
It is further the intent of the parties to allow reasonable time between the regular shift and overtime for an employee to make arrangements necessary to work overtime.
The scheduling of breaks and lunch periods will be addressed in the divisional agreements.
(a) All work in excess of the regularly scheduled eight (8) hour work day shall be overtime and compensated at a rate of time and one-half the regular rate or as otherwise provided. Overtime shall not be paid twice for the same hours.
(b) If an employee is requested to report back to work not contiguous to the beginning or end of the regular shift, the employee shall be guaranteed a minimum of four (4) hours overtime pay.
(c) If the employee is requested to report to work two (2) hours or less prior to but contiguous to the start of the shift, the employee shall be paid for actual time worked at the appropriate overtime rate.
(d) If the employee is requested to report to work more than two (2) but less than four (4) hours prior to but contiguous to the start of the shift, the employee shall be guaranteed four (4) hours overtime pay.
All such hours shall be paid at the appropriate overtime rate.
Overtime shall be filled according to divisional agreements.
When a shift worker works their first scheduled day off, it shall be considered as a Saturday and shall be compensated at the time and one-half rate.
When a shift worker works their second scheduled day off, it shall be considered as a Sunday and shall be compensated at the double time rate.
For regularly scheduled employees (Monday through Friday), Saturdays shall be compensated at the rate of time and one-half provided such employees have been credited with forty (40) hours straight time pay in the scheduled work period. A minimum of four (4) hours pay at the appropriate overtime rate shall be guaranteed to such employees.
For regularly scheduled employees (Monday through Friday), Sundays shall be compensated at the rate of double time provided such employees have been credited with forty (40) hours straight time pay in the scheduled work period. A minimum of four (4) hours pay at the appropriate overtime rate shall be guaranteed to such employees. Overtime procedure for shift workers shall be mutually agreed upon by both parties on a divisional basis.
When a shift worker works on their scheduled day off for a holiday, they shall be compensated for the holiday plus double time for all hours worked on such day.
When a regularly scheduled employee (Monday through Friday) works on a holiday, the employee shall be compensated for the holiday plus double time for all hours worked on such holiday. A minimum of four (4) hours pay at the appropriate overtime rate shall be guaranteed to such employee.
When the holiday falls on a Saturday and the City celebrates the holiday on Friday, if an employee works Friday the employee shall be compensated at the double time rate for all hours worked on Friday. In the event the employee works on Saturday, the employee shall be compensated time and one-half for all hours worked on the Saturday. In the event the holiday falls on Sunday and is observed on Monday, this same rule shall apply.
The overtime guarantee set forth herein shall not be applied to those situations where the employee is attending a pre-scheduled meeting; or to attend a required court hearing as a witness in connection with their City employment. In such cases the employee shall be guaranteed two hours pay at the appropriate overtime rate rather than the four (4) hours.
