Work schedules showing the employee's shift, workdays and hours shall be posted at least ten (10) days in advance on Department, Division, or Unit bulletin boards and shall remain posted.
The parties agree, however, if Local 2058 members are required to perform a job, Local 2058 members will report, until an agreement is reached, without harm to either party.
All employees shall be considered to have two (2) Saturdays and two (2) Sundays within any two-week work period. The first day off shall be considered as a Saturday; 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.
All work in excess of the regularly scheduled workday/shift as specified in Section 2105.51 Work Schedules within a twenty- four (24) hour period shall be compensated as overtime except where past practice in scheduling has been accepted. Employees scheduled to work two (2) consecutive shifts shall be paid overtime for the second consecutive shift.
When a shift worker works his first scheduled day off, it shall be considered as a Saturday and shall be compensated at the time and one-half (1-1/2) rate. When a shift employee works his second scheduled day off, it shall be considered as a Sunday and shall be compensated at the double (2) time rate. When a shift worker works on his scheduled day off for a holiday, he shall be compensated for the holiday plus double (2) time for all hours worked on such day.
(a) Whenever it is necessary to work overtime, such overtime shall be distributed as evenly as possible among the employees who have completed their original probationary period and are qualified to perform the necessary work. A seniority rotating overtime list shall be established by job classification according to the employee's seniority within the established work unit. It shall also show the original hiring date.
(b) Once established, the list shall be adhered to in the selection of employees to work overtime with the exceptions that:
(1) If an employee is assigned exclusive authority to a special project, and such project requires that overtime be worked, the employee assigned shall have preference in working the overtime.
(2) If a particular job requires overtime to be worked contiguous to the shift, in order to complete or further the progress on such job, then the employee who has been working the job on his or her regular shift shall be allowed to continue with the same job during the overtime period; provided, however no employee shall work more than sixteen (16) hours in any twenty-four (24) hour period except under emergency circumstances when authorized by the Division Head or their designee.
(3) If a particular job requires special expertise of a professional or technical nature, then the employee who has that expertise may be assigned the overtime.
(c) All overtime hours worked shall become part of the seniority rotating overtime list of all employees, except as may otherwise be agreed to between the City and the duly authorized representative of Local 2058. When an employee is requested to work and refuses such overtime assignment, or cannot be reached, after two verified calls have been made within one hour, then the employee shall be charged with such overtime. Overtime rotation lists shall remain posted at mutually agreed locations.
(d) The procedure for eligibility for overtime when an employee is off for any reason on the last scheduled workday before the weekend, shall be governed by negotiated divisional agreement.
(e) In the case of an emergency, employees who are off on the last scheduled work day before the weekend may be called for weekend overtime only after the rotating overtime list has been exhausted. If the employees cannot be contacted, the employee shall not be charged for the overtime call.
(f) When overtime becomes necessary for a position filled alternately from outside the bargaining unit, the overtime will be offered to bargaining unit members in that classification within the division before offering it to an alternate from outside the unit except under the circumstances specified in (b) above.
(g) Employees who are designated to be the exclusive person on-call and who must respond to a contact for a seven (7) day period, twenty-four (24) hours per day, will be compensated four (4) hours base pay for that seven (7) day period if they receive no call during that period.
