Common use of Special Shift Work Clause in Contracts

Special Shift Work. A Special Shift (single shift) – when remodeling or alteration work cannot be performed on the regular day shift because establishments cannot suspend business operations during the day, then the Contractor, prior to starting the job, shall notify the Union that he will work a special (single) shift. If a plaster tender has worked a regular day shift and is required to work a special shift in the same day, the special shift shall be at the overtime rate. 1. Request must be made to the Union in advance. Men to work on this shift must be identified by name. 2. Special Shift (multiple shift) – On jobs where multiple shifts operate, the following shall prevail: Multiple shift work may be established only on those jobs where the multiple shifts will work not fewer than 5 consecutive working days. Where any Contractor elects to work shift work under this Agreement, any work performed by an Employee before the start of and in addition to his regularly assigned shift or following the conclusion of his regularly assigned shift, such work shall be construed to be overtime work for all purposes of this Agreement. When an Employee is required to work overtime on special shift work following a regularly assigned shift, provisions will be made by the Employer for a meal for that Employee prior to starting the overtime work, provided the duration of the overtime work is expected to exceed two hours. In no event shall the regular working hours of the different multiple shifts overlap. Approval must first be obtained from the Union prior to starting multiple shift work. A Plaster Tender may work only one shift in one day at the straight time or reduced hours rate; otherwise time and a half (1 ½) rate will apply. The Contractor and the Union may mutually agree upon different starting times and shift arrangements.
