Employees Working on Holidays. If an employee works on any of the above mentioned holidays, he shall be paid at the rate of double time of the employee’s straight time rate for all hours worked and shall, in addition thereto, receive the regular holiday pay at eight (8) hours at his straight-time rate. The Company will post a sign up sheet for holiday work at least two (2) weeks in advance of the recognized holiday in each department expecting to have holiday work. Employees who want to work the holiday must sign the sheet no later than Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. of the week prior to the week in which the holiday is scheduled. Employees who sign up shall be required to work the holiday if needed. In scheduling employees needed to work the holiday, employees who have signed up shall be given preference in order of seniority, provided they have previously performed the available work required. If insufficient employees have signed the sheet or if fill-ins are needed for absent employees, the Company shall call employees from that department in order of seniority, provided the employee has previously performed the available work required. If sufficient employees do not accept the work, junior employees in the department who can be contacted may be required to work in order of reverse seniority. If an employee and/or his Union Representative brings a violation of this Paragraph to the attention of Management prior to the holiday being worked and no action is taken to correct the error, the employee who should have been offered or assigned the holiday shall be paid the difference between what he would have earned, if he had worked the holiday, and what he actually earned. An employee who should have been called into work under this Paragraph and was not will be paid the difference between what he would have earned, if he had worked the holiday, and what he actually earned. There shall be no pyramiding of rates with holiday pay; employees will be paid the greater applicable rate.
Employees Working on Holidays. A full-time employee who works on a holiday shall at the discretion of the employee, receive two and one-half (2.5) times his/her regular salary or equivalent compensatory time for the day worked. If the employee's hours exceed the normal scheduled hours, then they shall receive two times their regular rate of pay.
