OVERTIME PRINCIPLES Clause Samples

OVERTIME PRINCIPLES. Signup: During the day shift on Thursday, overtime signup sheets will posted for the week beginning the following Monday (Monday to Sunday). These sheets will provide a sign up grid. Employees wanting overtime must sign their names for any shift that they are available to work. If they wish to work for less shifts than the total number of shifts which they have signed up for, they must specify the maximum number of shifts which they are able to work. Space for this will be provided on the sign up grid. Signup sheets will be taken down 7:00 a.m. on the Thursday of the week posted. Allocation of planned overtime: Overtime will be allocated based on the employees who normally perform the work and their relative overtime hours worked on a quarterly basis. Based on these criteria, selection will be made from the signup list. Based on 24 hours overtime worked amongst the employees who normally perform the work and who have signed up, the Company will offer overtime to eliminate this gap. Preference for overtime will be given to those willing to work full shifts regardless of quarter to date overtime hours. In the event of insufficient signup, the most junior employees within the classification of the same off shift will be assigned (day and night shifts). Posting of allocated overtime: A schedule showing the allocation of planned overtime will be posted no later than 7:00 p.m. on Thursday prior to the week required. Unplanned overtime: In the event of unplanned absenteeism which requires employees to be called in for overtime, the employees sign up grid from previous week will be used for first canvass, and shall be offered available hours by order of seniority and the least overtime hours worked. Attendance: Once the overtime allocation has been posted, this is considered a scheduled shift. The Company will provide 48 hours’ notice for cancellation of any scheduled overtime shift and employees scheduled for overtime shifts will provide the same notice to their Supervisor in the event that they are not available. It is agreed that where oversights in selection occur due to assignment within or outside the department concerned, the employee affected will be offered like number of overtime hours at the earliest reasonable opportunity. This shall be within the subsequent quarterly period dependent on the availability of overtime.
