On-Call Duty 11.01 Both parties hereto accept that, in order to provide appropriate service and care to patients/residents/clients, on-call duty hours may be required to be worked by Employees in addition to regular hours. Positions that are designated for on- call duties must be approved by the Employer designate and the Regional Medical Lead of the Employer. During an on-call shift, an Employee may be required to take phone calls or attend on-site at the facility and perform duties if requested. The Employee is therefore required to be available to return to work without undue delay. On-call duty hours are not hours where an Employee is required to be, or remain, on-site at the facility awaiting assignment of work, including coverage of a shift for another employee or resident physician.
11.02 An Employee in a position with approved on-call duties shall not be scheduled to work such duties in excess of seven (7) times averaged over a four (4) week call period (1:4), unless otherwise agreed between the Employee and the Employer. The duration of an on-call shift shall be determined by the Employer, but shall not exceed twenty-four (24) hours.
11.03 An on-call stipend of $200.00 per twenty-four (24) hour on-call shift shall be provided. If two or more Employees split an on-call shift, the on-call stipend payable for that shift will be pro-rated between Employees that split an on-call shift.
11.04 In addition to the on-call stipend, an Employee that is on-call and required by the Employer to return to work shall be paid at time and one-half (1.5x) for all such hours worked.
11.05 Hours of on-call duty and hours worked after being called into work while on-call shall not be included in the calculation of bi-weekly hours of work (or hours of work over four (4) weeks for Part-Time Employees) or overtime hours of work.
11.06 If an Employee is on-call and is called into work for more than four (4) hours, of which more than two (2) full hours is after midnight and before 0600 hours, and the Employee is scheduled to work on a day shift commencing the morning immediately following the on-call shift, the Employer will make a determination of one of the following:
(a) the Employee will be assigned administrative (non-clinical) duties during the day shift, and may be permitted to start the day shift at a later time but shall not suffer any loss of pay for the period of the shift that is not worked.
(b) where no administrative (non-clinical) duties are considered necessary, the Employee will be rescheduled to commence clinical duties at 1300 but shall not suffer any loss of pay for the period of the shift that is not worked; or
(c) where the Employer considers that the duties performed during the on-call shift were particularly onerous, the Employee will not be required to work on the day shift and shall not suffer any loss of pay.
11.07 The duration of a call back to work shall be calculated starting from the time that the Employee arrives at the facility until the time that the Employee is no longer required to be at the facility. Notwithstanding, the Employee shall be paid not less than time and one-half (1.5) hour at straight time for each call back to work, including call backs that are cancelled while the Employee is en route to the facility.
On Call (a) Employees required to be on-call shall be paid one dollar ($1.00) per hour, or portion thereof.
(b) The minimum on-call requirement shall be four (4) consecutive hours.
(c) Should the Employer require an employee to have a pager, beeper or a cellular phone available during their on-call period, then all related expenses for such device shall be the responsibility of the Employer.
On-Call Pay 1. When a regular, limited-term or probationary employee is assigned on- call duty by the County, the employee shall, whenever practicable, be informed in writing at least five (5) days in advance of the dates and inclusive hours of such assignment; the employee shall be compensated at one-fourth (1/4) of his or her basic hourly rate for the entire period of such assignment.
2. On-call duty requires the employee so assigned to: (1) be reachable by telephone or other communications device; (2) be able to report to work in a reasonable time; and (3) to refrain from activities which might impair his or her ability to perform assigned duties.
3. Employees paid on a sixteen (16) hour shift basis are exempt from these provisions.
4. On-call pay shall not apply to extra help employees unless expressly directed in writing to be on-call.
