Common use of Extended Work Week Clause in Contracts

Extended Work Week. In order to provide a full week’s work for the employee and the contractor, an extended workweek is desirable. On any job or project where the majority of the employees employed lose eight (8) or more hours of work in any calendar week, the extended workweek may be used. The contractor would have the option of how the time is made up, whether by extending the hours during the workweek, or by working on Saturday. On some projects, existing laws may preclude extending the daily hours without paying overtime rates. If the lost time is made up on Saturday, all hours worked after forty (40) hours shall be paid at time and one half (1-1/2). Those employees who lost eight (8) hours must be part of the crew working as long as there is enough work to employ all of them. No employee who refuses to work the extended workweek will be disciplined or discharged for such refusal. It shall not be a violation of this agreement for the union to refuse to supply employees and applicants to and prohibit employees covered by this agreement from working for a contractor who violates this section. This provision shall not serve to vacate any regularly scheduled overtime. Under no circumstances will an employee be allowed to make up lost time on Sundays, holidays or the following workweek. An employer may not lay off, discharge or discriminate against any employee for refusal to work on a Saturday make-up day. If any craft to which the employer is signatory, is working on the job and receiving overtime pay, then the Laborer will receive overtime pay.
