Common use of Involuntary Overtime Clause in Contracts

Involuntary Overtime. Where there is an insufficient number of volunteers, overtime shall be assigned on an inverse seniority basis. In a circumstance when no employee from the list is available or everyone has rejected the opportunity to perform overtime work, the Employer will assign the work to that person with the least seniority within the job classification in the department. Once an employee has worked mandatory overtime, his or her name will be rotated to the bottom of the list for purposes of mandatory overtime. If any employee feels that he or she has been wrongfully overlooked or denied an overtime opportunity, he or she shall bring the oversight or denial of overtime to his or her supervisor’s attention before or at the time the overtime is scheduled to be worked.
