HOURS OF WORK AND OVERTIME 16.1 This Article is intended to define the normal hours of work per day or per week in effect at the time of execution of this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as preventing the Employer from restructuring the normal work day or work week for the purpose of promoting efficiency or improving services; from establishing the work schedules of employees; or establishing part-time positions. This Article is intended to be used as the basis for computing overtime. 16.2 The work week shall be computed between 12:01 a.m. on Sunday of each calendar week and at 12 o'clock midnight the following Saturday. 16.3 When an employee is required by the Employer to work for more than forty (40) hours in a calendar week, he shall be paid overtime pay for all time worked in excess of the forty (40) hours. Overtime pay shall be paid at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) times the employee's regular hourly rate of pay, which includes Annual Leave, Extended Leave or holidays taken in the forty (40) hour week only in their normal job classification. 16.4 Whenever an employee is called to work at a time other than his regular work schedule, thereby necessitating additional travel to and from work, he shall be guaranteed two (2) hours of pay at the straight time or overtime rate, whichever is appropriate, in accordance with the other articles of the Agreement. 16.5 Based on the needs of the Washington County Board of DD, full-time permanent employees may be given the opportunity to volunteer during the summer months to work a four (4) day, ten (10) hours per day work week, scheduled either as a Monday through Thursday or Tuesday through Friday as approved by the department’s supervisor or Superintendent. When two or more employees work in the same department, the schedules will be staggered so that each day of the work week is covered. The Employee with the most seniority will be given priority as to days worked. Holiday pay will be given for the number of hours the Employee works without a modified summer schedule, not to exceed eight (8) hours. The Employee will be expected to use Annual Leave for the remaining hours or make up the hours throughout the remainder of the current week. 16.6 Employees who work on Sunday shall be paid at one and one-half (1-1/2) times the employee's regular hourly rate. 16.7 There shall be no pyramiding of overtime or premium pay under any provisions of this Agreement. 16.8 Full time status with the Washington County Board of Developmental Disabilities is 30 or more hours per week, exclusive of a one-half (1/2) hour lunch period.
Rest Period After Overtime (a) When overtime work is necessary, it will, wherever reasonably practicable, be so arranged that employees have at least 10 consecutive hours off duty between the work of successive days or shifts, including overtime. (b) An employee, other than a casual employee, who works so much overtime between the termination of their ordinary work on one day and the commencement of their ordinary work on the next day, that they have not had at least 10 consecutive hours off duty between those times, will be released after completion of such overtime, until they have had 10 consecutive hours off duty without loss of pay for ordinary working time occurring during such a absence. (c) If, on the instruction of the employer, an employee resumes or continues to work without having had 10 consecutive hours off duty, they will be paid at the rate of double time until released from duty for such period. The employee will then be entitled to be absent until they have had 10 consecutive hours off duty without loss of pay for rostered ordinary hours occurring during the absence.
