Common use of Reporting Allowances Clause in Contracts

Reporting Allowances. 24.01 An employee who reports for work and is sent home by the Company because there is no work available shall be paid the equivalent of 4 hours’ work at straight time, provided he or she has not been notified that his or her services will not be required by the Company at least 2 hours before the start of a regular shift. 24.02 It is understood, however, that payment of the above allowance shall not be required if lack of work is due to circumstances beyond the control of the Company. Whenever this Article is invoked, the Company reserves the right to call/recall employees based on skill and ability to perform the work required for a period up to five working days. Extensions may be granted by mutual agreement. 24.03 An employee who has completed his full normal work day, as scheduled, and who has left the premises of the Company and who has then been called back to return to work, shall, upon reporting back to do the work assignment, be paid a minimum of 4 hours’ pay at straight time.
