Common use of UNDERGROUND Clause in Contracts

UNDERGROUND. MINE PREMIUM - An employee who is required to work below ground, in an underground mine, will be paid at two (2) times their Basic Wage Rate, for all hours or part hours spent working below ground. When employees are working on their scheduled days of rest or on paid holidays, their rate of pay will be three (3) times the Basic Wage Rate, for all hours or part hours spent working below ground, in an underground mine. For clarity, this premium does not apply when an employee is working in an open pit mine, or underground in a manhole or similar setting.
