Overtime Clause Samples
The Overtime clause defines the rules and compensation for work performed beyond standard working hours. Typically, it specifies the conditions under which employees are eligible for overtime pay, such as exceeding a set number of hours per week, and outlines the applicable pay rate, often higher than the regular wage. This clause ensures employees are fairly compensated for extra work and helps employers comply with labor laws, thereby preventing disputes over additional hours worked.

Overtime. Overtime will be paid at the rate of time and one-half (1 ½) for all hours worked Monday through Saturday and at double time rate for all hours worked on Sundays and holidays: (1) in excess of forty (40) hours in a paid status in any work week; or (2) except for field trips, in excess of eight (8) hours in a paid status in any work day; provided, however, there shall be no pyramiding of overtime premiums for the same hours. Field trip overtime is subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act. Employees called in to work for emergencies (defined as other than normal activities) at a time disconnected from their normal work hours shall receive a minimum of two (2) hours per day for such call-in(s). Compensatory time in lieu of cash for overtime work may be offered to hourly rate employees. The compensatory time received will be one and one-half hour of compensatory time for each hour of overtime worked in excess of forty hours per week, or overtime on Saturday. Two hours of compensatory time will be given for each hour of overtime worked on Sunday or a holiday. Employees may earn up to sixteen (16) hours of compensatory time each month, and can accumulate no more than twenty (20) hours at one time. The use of compensatory time must be utilized by the end of the semester in which it was earned unless otherwise approved by the Supervisor. Employees must secure the approval of their immediate supervisor as to when the compensatory time would be taken. To the extent an employee’s request for compensatory time off is disapproved, then he/she will be compensated at the applicable rate in the next pay period. Twelve month employees can use their 2nd semester comp time until the beginning of the next school year. Distribution of Overtime - Overtime or Extra work opportunities will be distributed on a seniority rotation basis starting with the most senior in the job classification and work-site that overtime or extra hours occur. At the beginning of the school year, a rotation list will be created and posted in the order of seniority and opportunities for extra work/overtime will be offered to the person at the top of the rotation list. A refusal counts as an opportunity worked. For an employee assigned to more than one building, their overtime rotation is assigned by the Supervisor to one (1) building.
Overtime. The Employer has the right to determine overtime opportunities as needed. Employees shall be canvassed according to Agency policy. If no policy exists then, employees shall be canvassed quarterly as to whether they would like to be offered overtime opportunities. Employees who wish to be called back for overtime outside of their regular hours shall have a telephone and shall provide their phone number to their supervisor. Insofar as practicable, overtime shall be equitably distributed on a rotating basis by seniority among those who normally perform the work. The parties shall negotiate specific arrangements for implementation of these overtime provisions at the local or Agency level within ninety (90) days of the effective date of this Agreement. Such arrangements shall include parameters regarding the distribution of mandatory overtime. Absent mutual agreement to the contrary, overtime rosters will be purged at least every twelve (12) months. Such arrangements shall recognize that in the event the Employer has determined the need for overtime, and if a sufficient number of employees is not secured through the above provisions, the Employer shall have the right to require employee(s) who normally perform(s) the work and who are listed on the seniority roster to perform said overtime. Such mandatory overtime shall be rotated among those employees who are listed on the seniority roster and such process shall supersede more restrictive agency specific provisions. In the event enough employees are not available, the Employer may require the least senior employee(s) available to work the overtime. Good faith attempts will be made to avoid the mandation of the same individual(s) consecutively. Assignment of mandated overtime hours is an appropriate topic for each Agency’s Health and Safety Committee. The overtime policy shall not apply to overtime work which is specific to a particular employee’s claim load or specialized work assignment or when the incumbent is required to finish a work assignment. The Agency agrees to post and maintain overtime rosters which shall be provided to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, within a reasonable time, if so requested. The rosters shall be updated every pay period in which any affected employee earned overtime. Employees who accept overtime following their regular shift shall be granted a ten (10) minute rest period between the shift and the overtime or as soon as operationally possible. In addition, the Employer will make every reasonable effo...

(j) At the option of the employee, overtime may be banked at straight time to be used as time off at a later date.

Overtime. A. When it becomes necessary to work overtime, employees shall be offered overtime work within their position title and work unit as designated by each department, first on the basis of seniority and then on the basis of the least number of overtime hours credited to each employee. A department may choose to post a list for voluntary overtime in which case employees who have volunteered shall be offered overtime within their position title and work unit, first on the basis of seniority and then on the basis of the least number of overtime hours credited to each employee. Overtime records shall be kept by the University for the previous 12 months. Overtime records shall reflect the number of overtime hours worked and the number of overtime hours refused which shall, for the purposes of scheduling overtime, be considered as overtime worked. If the department elects to post the overtime opportunity and an individual does not sign up, this will be considered a refusal to work overtime. The University will make a reasonable effort to distribute overtime equitably on a departmental basis.
B. Parking and Transportation Services will continue their current process of selecting employees for overtime. Facilities Management Custodial Units will post the opportunity for overtime on a quarterly basis by unit. Individuals who elect to be on the overtime list for the quarter will be called upon by order of seniority on a rotational basis for each overtime opportunity in that quarter. If an employee who has volunteered for the quarter is called upon twice during the quarter and is not able to work the overtime, the employee will be unable to sign up for the next overtime quarter. The Health Sciences Center (HSC) and Main Campus Custodial areas will be considered one unit for purposes of overtime. Quarterly sign-up sheets will be kept on record for the previous 12 months.
C. In cases of emergency overtime, the most readily available employee may be utilized. In addition, if an overtime slot cannot be filled by the use of volunteer posting for a planned event, management has the discretion to fill the overtime slot through mandatory overtime.
D. Overtime records shall, upon written request, be available to the Union for inspection. Emergency overtime shall not be counted on the list of scheduled overtime worked.
E. Overtime work applicable to the duties of a particular bargaining unit title will be offered to bargaining unit employees prior to offering the overtime to non-...
