ADDITIONAL REMUNERATION – EXTRA DUTY PAY Clause Samples
The 'Additional Remuneration – Extra Duty Pay' clause establishes the right of employees to receive extra compensation for performing duties beyond their standard job responsibilities or regular working hours. Typically, this clause outlines the conditions under which extra duty pay is granted, such as working overtime, covering additional shifts, or taking on special assignments, and specifies the rate or method of calculating the additional payment. Its core practical function is to ensure fair compensation for extra work, thereby incentivizing employees to take on additional tasks and clarifying the employer’s obligations regarding pay for extra duties.
ADDITIONAL REMUNERATION – EXTRA DUTY PAY. A schedule of compensation for additional duties is attached as Appendix B and B1. Additional duties must be officially assigned by the Superintendent or designee under the following conditions:
