Common use of Authorization and Application of Overtime Clause in Contracts

Authorization and Application of Overtime. (a) An employee who is required to work overtime shall be entitled to overtime compensation when: (1) the overtime worked is authorized in advance by the Employer; and (2) the employee does not control the duration of the overtime worked. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employer and the Union recognize that the nature of the work carried out by persons in some classifications is such that it may not be possible for the employee to obtain prior authorization for the necessary overtime work. In such cases the employee shall use their discretion in working the overtime and the Employer shall be considered to have authorized the overtime in advance. However, the Employer reserves the right, subject to the grievance procedure, to determine the legitimacy of the overtime claimed. In order to facilitate a fair and reasonable administration of the clause, the Employer will draw up regulations defining the circumstances under which an employee may undertake overtime work without prior authorization. Copies of these regulations will be supplied to the Joint Committee. (c) Employees shall have the option of being compensated for overtime in cash or compensatory time off. (d) If the employee elects to take compensatory time off, such time off shall be scheduled by mutual agreement within 60 days from it being earned. (e) If mutual agreement on the scheduling of compensatory time off cannot be reached, the employee may elect, at any time after the 60 days, to receive cash payment for such unscheduled compensatory time off. (f) Where overtime is paid in cash, the Employer shall make every reasonable effort to make payment by the next pay period immediately following the month in which the employee opts for cash payment pursuant to (c) or (e) above, as the case may be. (g) Any overtime still owing at the end of the calendar year may be taken as compensatory time off at a mutually agreeable time prior to the end of the fiscal year. Should this become impossible, all outstanding overtime shall be compensated by monetary payment at the end of the fiscal year or upon termination, whichever occurs earlier.
