Phone Calls. On-call employees who receive calls that do not require them to report back to the work site, but require them to consult, will be paid a minimum of fifteen (15) minutes at one and one half (1.5) times the appropriate rate of pay for the hour for each call received in addition to the on call premium. In no case will the number of calls per hour cause the overtime paid to exceed the rate of time and one half (1.5) the appropriate rate of pay for the hour. Examples Five (5) or more calls, in a one hour period, would be paid at 1.5x the appropriate rate of pay for 60 minutes not 75 or more minutes. If an employee receives two (2) calls at 2:00am and three (3) calls at 4:00am they would be entitled to 30 minutes for the first two calls and 45 minutes for the three calls at 4:00am.
