Anticipated Overtime Clause Samples

The Anticipated Overtime clause defines how overtime work is expected to be handled under the agreement. It typically outlines the circumstances under which overtime may be required, the process for notifying or approving overtime hours, and the applicable rates of pay or compensation for such hours. For example, it may specify that employees must receive prior written approval before working overtime or that overtime will be compensated at a higher hourly rate. This clause ensures both parties have a clear understanding of overtime expectations and compensation, helping to prevent disputes and manage labor costs effectively.
Anticipated Overtime. In cases where the Employer has authorized anticipated overtime to be worked, the Employer will offer the overtime by seniority to qualified employees.
Anticipated Overtime. Shift overtime will be filled first by the shift Sergeants and the swing Sergeant, then by the opposing shift Sergeants followed by road patrol.
Anticipated Overtime. Known overtime occurring on a shift will be filled first through a sign up request available to supervisors assigned to the shift with the overtime and awarded by unit seniority. If no one signs up for the available overtime, the sign up will be sent to all of the supervisors assigned to patrol and awarded by unit seniority. Finally, if still available, the overtime will be made available to supervisors outside Patrol and awarded by unit seniority. The Lieutenant or designee responsible for the overtime will include a closing period for sign up. Once overtime is posted, closed and assigned, it will not be reassigned/taken away unless an error priority awarding has occurred from the list of interested candidates. This means personnel who are off work and/or not aware of the posting during the sign up period will not be allowed to reopen/reassign overtime. All anticipated overtime which is less than two hours will be subject to call in/call back minimums unless the overtime is appropriately awarded to a member who was on-duty and stayed overt to cover (then considered regular overtime). All patrol overtime will be filled in this manner unless the opening falls under the emergency overtime exception. Utilizing an automated system which goes out to all member’s personal contact numbers which contains a deadline for interest is acceptable.
