Voluntary Additional Hours Sample Clauses
The Voluntary Additional Hours clause allows employees to work extra hours beyond their standard schedule on a voluntary basis. Typically, this clause outlines the conditions under which employees may offer to work additional shifts, how such hours are approved by management, and the rate of pay or compensation for these hours. Its core practical function is to provide flexibility for both the employer and employees, enabling the business to meet fluctuating operational needs while giving staff the opportunity to earn extra income if they choose.
Voluntary Additional Hours a) The employee may elect to work voluntary additional hours (as defined). Voluntary additional hours shall be paid at the ordinary rate as prescribed in Schedule 1.
b) The employee’s consent to work voluntary additional hours shall be obtained by completion of the ‘Voluntary Additional Hours Consent’ Form as prescribed in Schedule 2.

(d) To be clear, where the Employer requires an Employee to work additional time, the requirements of the applicable overtime rates shall apply.
Voluntary Additional Hours a. Straight Time When extra shifts or hours above coding become available, they will be offered to employees, by seniority according to an availability list submitted by employees desiring additional hours above coding.

After hours have been offered to regularly scheduled employees, additional remaining hours will then be offered to available on-call employees in an equitable fashion at the worksite. Any remaining hours will then be offered to qualified and oriented employees in the same job title who are from other worksites. After all employees on the availability list have been scheduled for straight time hours, any remaining hours will be offered at overtime.
