Rest Break (a) An employee working overtime must be allowed a rest break of 20 minutes without deduction of pay after each four hours of overtime worked if the employee is to continue work after the rest break. (b) Where a day worker is required to work overtime on a Saturday, Sunday or Public Holiday or on a rostered day off, the first rest break will be paid at the employee's ordinary rate of pay.
MEAL PERIODS AND REST BREAKS 4.1 Except when required for urgent or emergency work and except as provided in 4.2 no employee shall be required to work for more than five hours continuously without being allowed a meal break of not less than half an hour. 4.2 An employee unable to be relieved from work for a meal break shall be allowed to have a meal on duty and this period shall be regarded as working time. 4.3 Except where provided for in 4.2 an employee unable to take a meal after five hours’ duty shall be paid at overtime rates from the expiry of five hours until the time when a meal can be taken. 4.4 During the meal break or rest breaks prescribed above, free tea, coffee, milk and sugar shall be supplied by the employer. Where it is impractical to supply tea, coffee, milk and sugar free of charge, an allowance of $1.48 per week in lieu shall be paid. This allowance shall continue during all periods of leave except leave without pay. 4.5 Rest breaks of 10 minutes each for morning tea, afternoon tea or supper, where these occur during duty, shall be allowed as time worked.
Meal and Rest Breaks (a) The Employer shall make every reasonable effort to organize the work assignment on a shift in such a way as to allow each Nurse to have designated meal and rest break(s) at regular intervals during the shifts. (b) The Employer shall make every reasonable effort to ensure that no Nurse will work longer than five (5) consecutive hours without a break, unless mutually agreed between the Nurse and the Employer. (c) Nurses shall be permitted to combine meal and/or rest break(s) where operationally possible. (d) Operational requirements may require that Nurses remain on the nursing unit or within the facility for their designated meal and rest break(s). (e) Where operational requirements prevent a Nurse from having an uninterrupted meal or rest break(s) and it is not possible to reschedule the missed break(s) or a portion of the break(s) during the remainder of the shift, the Nurse shall be compensated for the portion of the missed meal period or rest period, at a rate of one and one-half times (1.5x) the Nurse’s hourly rate for the period of the rest and meal break(s) missed.
Rest Breaks Employees shall receive a fifteen (15) minute break during each four (4) hours worked. It is the Employer's intention to provide uninterrupted rest breaks.
Tie Breaker The parties agree to utilize the following procedure if two or more members of the bargaining unit hold the same position within the same department and have the identical seniority dates: 1. If two or more bargaining unit members have the same amount of time in a particular classification, the first tiebreaker is the date of continuous University service. Continuous service is that service unbroken by a resignation or termination from the University. 2. In the event that a tie is not broken by the foregoing procedure, the second tiebreaker shall be the uninterrupted service of an employee with a state agency, a county office, or a state-supported college or university where no break in service occurs. 3. In the event a tie is not broken by either of the foregoing procedures, we will use the last four (4) digits of the Social Security Number, in ascending order with the lowest number prevailing (i.e. 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004 – 0001 Prevails).
H3 Break The Authority shall have the right to terminate the Contract at any time by giving three (3) Months’ written notice to the Contractor. The Authority may extend the period of notice at any time before it expires, subject to agreement on the level of Services to be provided by the Contractor during the period of extension.
Coffee Break 23:01 The Employer shall recognize a paid coffee break period of 15 minutes duration in each half of a shift, whether during a normal work day or on shift work.
Tandem Transit Traffic 12.1 As used in this Section, Tandem Transit Traffic is Telephone Exchange Service traffic that originates on Onvoy's network, and is transported through Frontier’s Tandem to the subtending End Office or its equivalent of another carrier (CLEC, ILEC other than Frontier, Commercial Mobile Radio Service (CMRS) carrier, or other LEC (“Other Carrier”). Neither the originating nor terminating customer is a Customer of Frontier. Subtending End Offices shall be determined in accordance with and as identified in the Local Exchange Routing Guide (LERG). For the avoidance of any doubt, under no circumstances shall Frontier be required to transit traffic through a Frontier Tandem to a Central Office that the LERG does not identify as subtending that particular Frontier Tandem. Switched Exchange Access Service traffic is not Tandem Transit Traffic. 12.2 Tandem Transit Traffic Service provides Onvoy with the transport of Tandem Transit Traffic as provided below. 12.3 Tandem Transit Traffic may be routed over the Interconnection Trunks described in Sections 2 through 6 of this Attachment. Onvoy shall deliver each Tandem Transit Traffic call to Frontier’s Tandem with CCS and the appropriate Transactional Capabilities Application Part (“TCAP”) message to facilitate full interoperability of CLASS Features and billing functions. 12.4 Onvoy may use Tandem Transit Traffic Service only for traffic that originates on Onvoy’s network and only to send traffic to an Other Carrier with whom Onvoy has a reciprocal traffic exchange arrangement (either via written agreement or mutual tariffs) that provides for the Other Carrier, to terminate or complete traffic originated by Onvoy and to bill Onvoy, and not to bill Frontier, for such traffic. Onvoy agrees not to use Frontier’s Tandem Transit Traffic Service to send traffic to an Other Carrier with whom Onvoy does not have such a reciprocal traffic exchange arrangement or to send traffic that does not originate on Onvoy’s network. 12.5 Onvoy shall pay Frontier for Tandem Transit Traffic Service at the rates specified in the Pricing Attachment. Frontier will not be liable for compensation to any Other Carrier for any traffic that is transported through Frontier’s Tandem and Frontier reserves the right to assess to Onvoy any additional charges or costs any Other Carrier imposes or levies on Frontier for the delivery or termination of such traffic, including any Switched Exchange Access Service charges. If Frontier is billed by any Other Carrier for any traffic originated by Onvoy, Frontier may provide notice to Onvoy of such billing. Upon receipt of such notice, Onvoy shall immediately stop using Frontier’s Tandem Transit Traffic Service to send any traffic to such Other Carrier until it has provided to Frontier certification that the Other Carrier has removed such billed charges from its bill to Frontier and that the Other Carrier will not bill Frontier for any traffic originated by Onvoy. Such certification must be signed by an authorized officer or agent of the Other Carrier and must be in a form acceptable to Frontier. 12.6 If Onvoy uses Tandem Transit Traffic Service for traffic volumes that exceed the Centum Call Seconds (Hundred Call Seconds) busy hour equivalent of 200,000 combined minutes of use per month (a DS1 equivalent) to the subtending End Office of a particular Other Carrier for any month (the “Threshold Level”). Onvoy shall use good faith efforts to establish direct interconnection with such Other Carrier and reduce such traffic volumes below the Threshold Level. If Frontier believes that Xxxxx has not exercised good faith efforts promptly to obtain such direct interconnection, either Party may use the Dispute Resolution processes of this Agreement. 12.7 If Onvoy fails to comply with Section 12 of this Attachment, such failure shall be a material breach of a material provision of this Agreement and Frontier may exercise any and all remedies under this Agreement and Applicable Law for such breach. 12.8 If or when a third party carrier plans to subtend an Onvoy switch, then Onvoy shall provide written notice to Frontier at least ninety (90) days before such subtending service arrangement becomes effective so that Frontier may negotiate and establish direct interconnection with such third party carrier. Upon written request from Frontier, Onvoy shall offer to Frontier a service arrangement equivalent to or the same as Tandem Transit Traffic Service provided by Frontier to Onvoy as defined in this Section such that Frontier may terminate calls to a Central Office or its equivalent of a CLEC, ILEC other than Frontier, CMRS carrier, or other LEC, that subtends an Onvoy Central Office or its equivalent (“Reciprocal Tandem Transit Service”). Onvoy shall offer such Reciprocal Transit Service arrangements under terms and conditions of an amendment to this Agreement or a separate agreement no less favorable than those provided in this Section. 12.9 Neither Party shall take any actions to prevent the other Party from entering into a direct and reciprocal traffic exchange arrangement with any carrier to which it originates, or from which it terminates, traffic.
