Common use of Non-Scheduled Overtime Clause in Contracts

Non-Scheduled Overtime. When an off-duty employee is required to return to work without having received notice prior to leaving his/her last shift and a minimum of 14 hours prior to the start of the scheduled overtime it shall be considered as non-scheduled overtime. The employee shall be paid on an overtime basis (see Section (E) above) for a minimum of four (4) hours, which includes, one-half (1/2) hour for travel time. If the non-scheduled overtime worked exceeds four (4) hours (which includes the one, one-half (1/2) hour for travel time), he/she shall be paid for the time actually worked. An employee who works less than four (4) hours on the initial period of overtime and is then called back a second time during the initial four (4) hour period shall not be entitled to any additional overtime pay unless the aggregate time worked for both occurrences shall exceed four (4) hours, in which case he/she shall be paid for the aggregate time worked. In the event an employee is called back for a second time after the expiration of four (4) hours from the first call, he/she shall be paid for a minimum of four (4) hours for each occurrence, except as provided above. For example: 1. An employee who is called Saturday and works from 9:30 a.m. until 11:00 a.m. is paid four (4) hours overtime. 2. The same employee who worked until 11:00 a.m. (1 above) is called back and works from noon until 3:30 p.m. is paid: 5-1 2 hours overtime. 3. If the employee who works until 11:00 a.m. (1 above) is called back at 1:30 p.m. the same day, it is considered another four (4) hour overtime period, including the one-half hour paid travel time. However, in the event the period of non-scheduled overtime actually worked runs into an employee’s normal work shift, he/she shall be paid at the overtime rate only for the time actually worked outside of his/her regular shift hours; i.e., exclusive of travel time.
