Extra Shift Benefit Sample Clauses

Extra Shift Benefit. A full-time or part-time nurse will be paid a differential of $18.00 per hour ($19.00 for weekends) for all hours worked per week in excess of the number of the nurse's regularly scheduled hours for the week (including regularly scheduled weekend hours), when such excess hours result from the nurse's working extra shift(s) of at least four (4) hours each in duration, at the request of the Hospital. 1. For the purposes of determining "the nurse's regularly scheduled hours for the week" above, regularly scheduled hours actually worked in the week will be counted, and the following regularly scheduled hours will also be counted for the week: (a) Not worked because of an MDO, as defined in Section 17.A.1; (b) Not worked because the Hospital required attendance at a specific education program; (c) Not worked because the nurse was on a paid educational leave from such hours; and (d) Not worked because of PTO for the purpose of vacation that was scheduled at the time the schedule was posted. 2. Hours worked in determining eligibility for this differential will not include hours worked as a result of trades or of being called in to work while on standby (subject to paragraph 7 below regarding standby after canceling an extra shift). 3. If a nurse's FTE status is reduced at the nurse's request, this differential will be payable to the nurse only for extra shifts worked above the nurse's former FTE for a period of thirteen (13) full pay periods following the nurse's FTE reduction. 4. A weekend shift under this section is defined as a shift beginning within the period from 7 p.m. on Friday through 6:59 p.m. on Sunday. A nurse who works less than four (4) hours on an otherwise eligible shift due to MDO will receive the differential on all hours worked. 5. This differential will not be paid for any unworked hours. 6. The differentials set forth above replace all other differentials for extra shift hours. 7. Nurses cancelled from an extra shift and placed on standby, if thereafter called back to work on the same unit and shift will be paid at the same rate of pay they would have received if not previously cancelled. This provision supersedes the premium pay language of Article 9.
