The employee will not lose the regular work pay they would otherwise be entitled to. A maximum of eight (8) hours of fatigue time is allowed.

Fatigue Time. A. If an employee has worked less than 15 hours out of the proceeding 24-hour period and is called in and works for more than 2.5 hours, or multiple calls totaling 2.5 hours all of which end within 10 hours of the start of the next shift, and the callout or last callout ends less than 7, but more than 2, hours from the start of the next scheduled shift, the employee will not be required to report to work until 7 hours from the end of the call-out. The employee will be paid straight time hours from the start of the next scheduled shift until they report to work after the 7-hour rest period; they will be paid straight time hours for time worked through the end of their scheduled shift.

At that point, the employee will either be released and paid for the remainder of his/her normal shift at straight time or will continue to work and be paid at 1 ½ times the normal rate until released. Example 1: Employee takes call starting @ 10:00PM ending @ 2:00AM. After receiving 7 fours of fatigue time, the employee is required to report to work at 9:00AM for the start of the next shift and will be paid straight time from 7:00 through the end of their shift. Example 2: Employee takes a call @ 8:00PM ending @ 10:00PM. Employee takes second call @ 1:00AM ending @2:00AM. The calls total 3 hours and both ended after 9:00PM. Employee returns to work at 9:00AM for the start of the next shift, receiving 7 hours of fatigue time. Employee is paid straight time from 7:00AM through the end of their shift. Example 3: Employee takes a call @2:30AM continuing to the start of the next shift @ 7:00AM. Employee works from 7:00AM until 10:30AM at straight time. At that point the employee will either be released by the supervisor and paid straight time for the remainder of the shift or continue working, if necessary, and be paid 1-1/2 time until released (unless double time provisions kick in such as 15- hour clause). Example 4: Employee takes call @ 2:30AM ending @ 5:30AM. Employee is not released (call ended inside of 2 hours before the start of the shift) and stays on site until the start of the shift, paid at 1-1/2 time. Employee continues to work from the start of the shift until 10:30AM at straight time. At that point the employee will either be rel...
