In no case shall extended workdays be greater than 12 hours in length, exclusive of unpaid meal breaks. In no case shall extended workweeks be greater than an average of 44 hours, exclusive of unpaid meal breaks. All provisions of the collective agreement continue to apply to an employee working extended workday and/or extended workweek schedules except as varied below: (1) Implementation of extended workday and/or extended workweek schedules requires the agreement of the Employer and the Union. (2) Overtime will be in accordance with Clause 15.11 (Overtime for Extended Hour Shifts). (3) Any paid leaves in the collective agreement shall be paid using the principles of equivalent hours up to the maximum entitlement. It is understood by the parties that the guiding principles of extended workday and/or extended workweek schedules are to ensure that the employees working these shifts receive no greater nor lesser benefits than what they would have received working "regular" work hours/week.
