Assignment of Overtime. 3.4.1 Overtime shall be assigned on a rotating seniority basis among all qualified employees who are in the same classification, the same organizational unit, and at the same work location. An employee may decline an overtime assignment without adverse consequence unless it is assigned pursuant to Section 3.4.2 below. The department may define the group of qualified employees by their shift for purposes of assigning overtime so that call back pay is not obligated. In order to determine if an employee is qualified, the department should consider the employee’s work record in the department, including being in an unsatisfactory status on a current evaluation or having a formal discipline action in process.
3.4.2 If no employee in the classification, organization unit and work location accepts the overtime assignment, using the rotating seniority process, the District may assign the overtime in reverse rotating seniority order.
3.4.3 The following are allowable exceptions to the seniority overtime assignment process: When overtime is authorized for completion of a specific assignment, project, or work in progress, the employee who began the assignment, project, or work may be assigned the overtime; When the District determines it is necessary to consider special skills and training of employees to perform particular work; When employees are available to perform the work on a non-over-time basis, the District shall not be required to assign the work on an overtime basis. Overtime pay assignments will not be given to temporary employees unless the regular employees that would normally be assigned the overtime are not available or one of the seniority exceptions apply.
3.4.4 All overtime shall be offered to everyone on the applicable overtime list in descending order of seniority until the list is exhausted. Once the last name on the list is reached the process will resume from the top of the list. If an employee is offered overtime for a scheduled project and declines to accept, the employee forfeits his/her turn in the rotation. That employee will not be offered overtime until the list has been completed and his/her name comes up again in order of seniority.
3.4.5 Notice of scheduled overtime, for situations that are recurring or have advance notice, and which are offered on a rotational basis shall be posted in the same area as all required employment notices and announcements and will remain up until the work has been completed. Posting shall be on a form ag...
Assignment of Overtime. In assigning overtime work, the Department agrees to consider any circumstances which might cause such an assignment to be an unusual burden upon the employee.

Assignment of Overtime a. The University shall decide when overtime is needed. Overtime must be approved in advance by the University. As soon as practicable after the need for overtime is determined, the University shall notify the employee that overtime must be worked. Employees are expected to work overtime when such work is assigned.
b. The University will assign overtime work by rotation based on departmental seniority of those employees on the same shift who normally perform the work involved. For purposes of this Article, rotation means that the last employee to work overtime will be the last considered for new overtime assignments. For the purposes of this Article, departmental seniority may be defined by each department at the campus/hospital/laboratory. Such seniority is applied in the following manner:
1) When there are employees volunteering to work the overtime, assignment of that overtime shall be based on greatest seniority, provided the employee(s) have the required skills, knowledge and ability to do the job.
2) When no employee volunteers to work the overtime, assignment of that overtime shall be based on inverse order of seniority, provided the least senior employee has the skills, knowledge and ability necessary to perform the job.
c. The University shall assign overtime to employees irrespective of their place on the seniority or rotation list(s) when the necessary skills, knowledge or abilities are not possessed by the employee who would otherwise be assigned in accordance with the above provisions.
Assignment of Overtime. In cases where the Employer has authorized anticipated over- time to be worked, the Employer will offer the overtime by seniori- ty to eligible employees. An eligible employee includes one who is: actively working with- in the affected unit, qualified to perform the work, and available to accept the work (eg. not on any paid or unpaid leave of absence, not outside of safe work parameters). The determination of seniority will be based on the most recent- ly published/quarterly seniority list. Where overtime is unanticipated (less than 24 hours in advance), overtime shall be offered by seniority to eligible employees who are at work. If no eligible employee accepts the overtime offered, the employer may offer the overtime to any available and qualified employee. The Employer may cancel the overtime, without any penalty, where it is able to schedule the work at straight-time rates or no longer requires the work to be done.

FLSA non-exempt employees may not work outside of scheduled working hours, or during unpaid meal periods, without the prior approval of a supervisor consistent with department policy. Failure to secure prior approval may result in discipline.
Assignment of Overtime. (a) In assigning overtime work, the Agency agrees to consider any circumstances which might cause such an assignment to be an unusual burden upon the employee.

The determination of seniority will be based on the most recently published/quarterly seniority list. For Affiliate Employers, where overtime is unanticipated (less than 24 hours in advance), overtime shall be offered by seniority to eligible employees who are at work. If no eligible employee accepts the overtime offered, the employer will offer the overtime by seniority to eligible employees. If an Affiliate Employer introduces an electronic scheduling program or there is an agreement at the local level, overtime will be offered by seniority to eligible employees. The Employer may cancel the overtime, without any penalty, where it is able to schedule the work at straight-time rates or no longer requires the work to be done.
Assignment of Overtime. Management will attempt to assign overtime work as equitably as possible among all qualified employees in the same classification, in the same organizational unit and work location. In the assignment of overtime under this provision, however, Management may consider special skills required to perform particular work.

Employees in this Unit may not work outside of scheduled working hours, or during unpaid meal periods, without the prior approval of a supervisor consistent with department policy. Failure to secure prior approval may result in discipline.
Assignment of Overtime. When the Hospital requires unscheduled overtime work to be performed, such overtime opportunity shall be offered in order of seniority to employees within the department present at work, subject to their qualification and ability to perform the work. Where no employees as described above are immediately available and willing to accept the overtime opportunity, overtime will be offered in order of seniority to employees within the classification that normally performs the work, in the department and campus at which the work is to be performed. Scheduled overtime will be offered in order of seniority to employees within the classification that normally perform the work, in the department and campus at which the work is to be performed. In work areas where employees are required to declare their willingness/availability to work overtime, the Hospital will not be required to offer overtime to those employees who have not indicated a willingness/availability to work overtime. The Hospital maintains the right to assign the least senior employee within the classification that normally performs the work, in the department and campus at which the work is performed, to perform the work where senior employees are not willing or available.
