(3) An Employee who has been scheduled to work a split shift shall be entitled to work the second four hours, if those hours become available, before a part-time replacement is called in.

All refused overtime hours will be charged as if worked. This list shall be available at the appropriate work site January 1 of each year and updated weekly thereafter.
(5) Any time for which an Employee is required to arrive before his shift and/or remain after his shift shall be considered hours worked for which he shall be compensated at the appropriate rate.

In any event, it is understood that such a change initiated by the employee and approved by the Employer shall not result in overtime compensation or payment or any other claims on the Employer by any employee under the terms of this Agreement.
15.05 Where there is a change to Daylight Savings from Standard Time or vice-versa, an employee who is scheduled and works a full shift shall be paid for a seven and one-half (7½) hour shift rather than the actual hours worked.
