SATURDAY MAKE-UP. A voluntary Saturday make up day may be scheduled by the Employer when a regular 8 (eight) hour shift during the work week has been cancelled due to inclement weather. This voluntary Saturday make up day shall be available to only those employees on this project first, then employees on other projects where the week day shift was lost and any new hires who were ordered prior to the workday lost, for the workday lost. Employees who have other commitments for the Saturday may decline the voluntary make up day without any fear of retaliation by the Employer or his representative. This only applies when all trades involved with the masonry work agree to this provision. This section shall be applicable from December 1st to March 31st. This section is not applicable on prevailing wage projects.
SATURDAY MAKE-UP. When conditions beyond the control of the Employer, such as severe weather, widespread power failure, fire, natural disaster, etc., prevent the operation of the job on one or more normal working days, the Employer may, with notification to the Union, schedule the Saturday of that calendar week during which work was prevented, as a make-up day at straight time. All hours worked in excess of the normal work day shall be paid for at the rate of time and one-half. When a holiday falls on a Saturday, then the make-up day rate shall be time and one-half. In order to utilize a Saturday as a make-up day, the Employer must declare a regular work day "terminated," for one of the reasons listed above, no later than 10:00 a.m. of the day terminated, and must notify the Union of its desire to work a make-up day by noon of the day preceding the make-up day. Employees employed by the Employer on the day so "terminated," shall have the right of first refusal to work on the make-up Saturday, but said employees shall also have the right to decline work on a make-up Saturday, without any penalty. If men are needed to work a make-up Saturday, other than those already working on the job, the Employer shall call the Union for men before employing men secured from any other source. A make-up Saturday shall be no less than the seven or eight hours as established by the shift, with one-half (1/2) hour off to eat, charged to the hours worked.
