Overtime and TOIL Clause Samples
Overtime and TOIL. Subject to the other terms of Part 1 of this Appendix, an Eligible Employee who is paid the Composite Allowance: is entitled to be paid for overtime worked in excess of that set out in the Work Arrangements, in accordance with the Supplementary Terms and Conditions of Employment for Operational Employees contained in Part 2 of this Appendix; or may elect to take time off in lieu (TOIL) of payment for overtime worked in excess of that set out in the Work Arrangements, in accordance with the Supplementary Terms and Conditions of Employment for Operational Employees contained in Part 2 of this Appendix. Overtime shall only be worked with the prior approval of the relevant Manager or delegate thereof. This includes the overtime included in the Work Arrangements. Prior to commencing any overtime in excess of that set out in the Work Arrangements, the Eligible Employee and the Employer must agree as to whether such overtime will be paid or taken as TOIL, in accordance with this Appendix. The Employer will agree to overtime in excess of that set out in the Work Arrangements being paid unless the Employer considers that health and safety considerations indicate that such overtime should be taken as TOIL. TOIL can only be accrued to a maximum of 38 hours at any one time. Once an eligible Employee accrues 38 hours of TOIL, any additional overtime hours in respect of which the Eligible Employee would have an entitlement to be paid or take TOIL under Part 1 of this Appendix must be taken as paid overtime. During any one calendar year, a maximum of 38 hours TOIL may be converted into annual leave. Eligible Employees will not be rostered for stand-by duty while on approved leave. An Eligible Employee who is rostered for stand-by duty must, at all times while on stand-by duty: be contactable; have a zero-blood alcohol level; and be able to return to their place of work within a reasonable time of being recalled to duty, which must not exceed one hour from the time of recall. An Eligible Employee who is paid the Composite Allowance will be paid for stand-by duty undertaken in excess of: 26 weeks per calendar year with respect to Eligible Surveillance Officers; and 12 weeks per calendar year, with respect to Eligible Intelligence/Investigative Employees; in accordance with the Supplementary Terms and Conditions of Employment for Operational Employees contained in Part 2 of this Appendix.

6.6.2 An Employee who has undertaken overtime authorised in advance by the Head of Campus/Head of School may, by mutual agreement, 'bank' any such time worked to be taken as Time Off in Lieu (TOIL), under the following conditions:
a. Only the first three (3) hours of overtime on any single day may be banked as TOIL.
b. Banked TOIL will be accrued and used on a 'time for time' basis, meaning one (1) hour of overtime worked equals one (1) hour of paid time off during non-term time.
c. Any overtime worked in excess of three (3) hours on a single day will be paid at the double time rate and cannot be banked.
d. A maximum of three (3) days of TOIL can be accrued per school term and must be used during the next period of non-term time unless otherwise approved by the Head of Campus/Head of School.

Overtime and TOIL. 40.1 The Director-General may direct any APS 1-6 employee, or an Executive Level IT specialist, to work extra duty for which overtime is payable.
40.2 Overtime is extra duty an employee is directed to perform that is in addition to their ordinary hours of work. For APS 1-6 employees working within the flextime provisions of Clause 36, overtime is only payable after 10 hours of ordinary duty on any day. Prior direction to work overtime by the Director- General is required; overtime is not to be self-initiated. Where circumstances do not permit prior direction by the Director-General, the Director-General may authorise that period of work to be treated as overtime. If such a direction or authorisation is not given to the employee to work overtime, no overtime payment or TOIL will apply for the period worked.
40.3 Overtime payments will be calculated at the following rates: Monday to Saturday – time and a half for the first three hours each day and double time thereafter; Sunday – double time; and public holidays – double time and a half.
40.4 The Director-General may approve an eligible employee to access TOIL for any overtime worked rather than receiving payment. The rate of TOIL is the same as for overtime payment.
40.5 A meal allowance will be paid in conjunction with overtime where an employee is directed to work a continuous period of at least two hours outside the span of hours and the period extends over a meal period. The meal periods are: Monday to Friday: 7.00am to 9.00am, 7.00pm to 8.00pm and, midnight to 1.00am Saturday, Sunday and public holidays: 7.00am to 9.00am, 12.30pm to 1.30pm, 7.00pm to 8.00pm; and midnight to 1.00am.
