COMPENSATION FOR REPORTING TO WORK Sample Clauses

COMPENSATION FOR REPORTING TO WORK. 12.01 Employees reporting to work on any regularly scheduled work day, who were not notified on the previous day or prior thereto that there would be no work, shall be compensated for at least four (4) hours of work for eight (8) hour employees, or six (6) hours of work, for twelve (12) hour employees, whichever is applicable, unless the failure to furnish any work is due to mechanical failures or causes beyond the control of the employer. 12.02 In the event of a mechanical failure or causes beyond the control of the employer, such as electrical failure, fire, lightning, flood, tempest, explosion or as the result of a labour dispute, every effort shall be expended to notify employees before the start of their shift. Wherever possible, four (4) hours of alternative work for eight (8) hour employees, or six (6) hours of alternative work for twelve (12) hour employees, as directed by the employer, will be made available. Failure on the part of an employee to accept alternative work shall negate any obligation on the part of the employer for payment under this article.
