Hour Operations Clause Samples
The "Hour Operations" clause defines the specific days and times during which certain activities, services, or business operations are permitted or required under the agreement. Typically, this clause outlines regular business hours, exceptions for holidays, or special circumstances that may alter standard operating times. By clearly establishing when operations are to occur, the clause helps prevent misunderstandings, ensures compliance with agreed schedules, and facilitates smooth coordination between parties.
Hour Operations. Employees regularly assigned to work shifts in twenty-four (24) hour operations (Article 5, Section 1. D.) will not receive holiday compensation on the "Friday before" or the "Monday after" the Christmas Day or New Year's Day holidays when these holidays fall on Saturday or Sunday. Instead, the employees, who are assigned to work shifts on December 25 and January 1, will receive holiday compensation pursuant to Section 1.D above on those dates. For employees who do not work on December 25 and January 1 because these holidays fall on the employee's regularly scheduled day off, these employees shall not be covered by Article 6, Section 1.E, but will receive the equivalent of one-tenth (1/10th) the number of regularly scheduled hours in the employee's biweekly pay period.
Hour Operations. Schedules for employees who work shifts in twenty-four (24) hour operations shall be established by the appointing authority and posted. Routine changes to such shifts shall be posted at least fourteen (14) calendar days prior to the effective date of the change. Employees who report to work on shifts which begin in one (1) calendar date and end in the next shall be compensated for the entire shift for the date the shift begins. Shifts shall not be scheduled to include split shifts, except in temporary emergency situations. Employees on shifts shall normally be scheduled to work ten (10) days and be off four (4) days in a fourteen (14) day work period. To the extent possible, the appointing authority will generally allow a schedule which will provide the employee with two (2) consecutive days off. A minimum of eight (8) hours of rest will be provided between the end of one (1) shift and the beginning of a new shift.
Hour Operations. Unscheduled EMERGENCY work performed on a Saturday, Sunday, or official state holiday shall be compensated at one and one half (1 ½) times the employee’s BASE PAY RATE or one and one half (1 ½) hours compensatory time for each hour worked. To be eligible for compensation for work performed in excess of eighty (80) hours in a payroll period or for unscheduled EMERGENCY work performed on a Saturday, Sunday or official state holiday, approval for such work must be made by the employee's immediate supervisor. Employees shall have the right to inform the EMPLOYER of their preference for cash payment or compensatory time on a per payroll period basis. Compensatory time may be accrued to a maximum balance of forty (40) hours. Compensatory time may not be carried over from one calendar year to the next and shall be liquidated by the close of each year either by the employee taking the time off or the balance being paid off in cash at the employee's BASE PAY RATE. EMPLOYER approval for compensatory time off shall be the same as that required for vacation/ PTO.
Hour Operations. 19.3.1 Twenty four (24) hour operations shall apply in agreed circumstances.
Hour Operations. 1. For the purpose of this section, time worked on holidays by employees normally working on holidays (i.e. swing shift employees, dispatcher, relief operator, and twenty-four (24) hour operations) shall be paid straight time plus holiday pay.
2. When a holiday falls on a day where it is a shift employee’s regular day off, the employee shall be entitled to an additional day of holiday to be taken as a personal holiday, subject to the convenience of the Department Head, and such holidays must be used within the year earned as they are not cumulative. The City agrees to pay employees who work on holidays, holiday pay for their regular shift (8, 10, or 12 hour shifts) plus straight time.
