Common use of Special Single Shift Clause in Contracts

Special Single Shift. When the Individual Employer produces evidence in writing to the Union of a bona fide job requirement for a public agency or a public utility which certifies that some or all of the work can only be done other than during the normal shift hours, and notifies the Union during the pre-job conference or by FAX, E-MAIL, or certified mail at least three (3) days before the start of such special shift (except in the case of emergency), the Individual Employer may initiate such special shift of eight (8) consecutive hours (not in conjunction with any other shift) (exclusive of meal period), Monday through Friday. Such shift shall be in accordance with the provisions of Section 06.02.00. 1. Provided, however, if, by direction of the Contracting Authority, the bid specifications require it, or congestive traffic conditions on Fridays are such that working conditions would be unsafe for Employees, or counter- productive to the performance of work, the special single shift may commence on Sunday with double (2) time to be paid from 8:00 p.m. Saturday up to and including 8:00 p.m. Sunday and the applicable straight-time rate paid from 8:00 p.m. Sunday until completion of the eight(8)-hour special single shift. If Sunday is the first day of the workweek as provided herein, all hours worked between 8:00 p.m. Friday and 8:00 p.m. Saturday shall be paid at time and one-half (1-1/2). 2. Flexible starting times shall be permitted for crews on a special single shift whenever an Operating Engineer ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is employed on the special single shift.
