In instances where the employee on a modified work week schedule is required by the College to respond to a pager, radio or other electronic device on a meal break, the meal break shall make up part of the seventy (70) hours biweekly. Such arrangements shall only proceed after there is prior written confirmation by the parties. An employee who has worked the modified work week schedule as above and who works on a scheduled day of rest shall be compensated at the rate of double time for all hours worked in that day.
