Common use of BY PAY Clause in Contracts

BY PAY. An employee who is required to “stand-by” for possible re-call to work shall receive two (2) hours pay at their regular rate of pay for each stand-by period of twenty-four (24) hours or fraction thereof (Example: one (1) to twenty-four (24) hours = two (2) hours pay; twenty-four (24) to forty-eight (48) hours = four (4) hours pay). Employees placed on stand-by status shall provide management with a telephone number where they can be reached during the stand-by period. If the employee changes locations during the stand-by period, they shall provide management with the new number where they can be reached. Employees who have been placed on stand-by status who management cannot reach at the number provided, or are unable to report when reached, shall be subject to disciplinary action. Stand-by pay does not count as hours worked for the purpose of overtime computation.
