ARTICLE 12
CALL BACK

12.01 Where an employee is called back on his/her regular work day or day of rest, s/he shall:

(a) be paid thirty dollars ($30) as travel compensation;

(b) be paid at the applicable overtime rates for hours worked with a minimum compensation of two (2) hours at the applicable overtime rate; and

(c) upon completion of every four (4) hours:

(1) be provided with a meal or be paid a meal allowance of six dollars ($6); and

(2) be allowed a meal break of one-half (½) hour at straight time.

12.02 Where an employee is called back on a paid holiday or a previously agreed-to lieu day, s/he shall:

(a) be paid thirty dollars ($30) as travel compensation;

(b) receive his/her regular work day's pay;

(c) be paid at straight time for hours worked up to his/her regularly scheduled daily hours, with a minimum compensation of two (2) hours at straight time;

(d) be paid at double time for all hours worked in excess of his/her regularly scheduled daily hours;

(e) upon completion of every four (4) hours:

(1) be provided with a meal or be paid a meal allowance of six dollars ($6); and

(2) be allowed a meal break of one-half (½) hour at straight time; and

(f) be given a lieu day.

12.03 Where an employee is called back more than once on the same day, Clauses 12.01 or 12.02, as the case may be, shall apply to every one of such call-backs, except that, in the case of Clause 12.02, Sub-Clauses 12.02 (b) and (f) shall apply only once.

12.04 Call-back pay under Clauses 12.01 (b) and 12.02 (c) and (d) shall be:

(a) calculated to the nearest one-quarter (¼) of an hour, subject to the relevant minimum compensation;

(b) calculated on the basis of the employee's pay in effect at the time the call-back occurred; and

(c) made no later than one (1) month immediately following the month in which the call-back occurred.

12.05 Notwithstanding Clause 12.04 (c), a regular employee may, subject to the agreement of his/her Department Head, elect to take compensatory time off in lieu of call-back pay. Such compensatory time off shall be calculated in the same manner as call-back pay. In the event that any compensatory time off cannot be taken at a time mutually agreeable to the employee and his/her Department Head within a period of six (6) months immediately following the month in which the call-back occurred, the employee shall, instead, receive the call-back pay in the month immediately following the expiration of the six (6) month period.

12.06 An employee shall be entitled to at least eight (8) consecutive clear hours during the normal break between any two (2) consecutive regular shifts. It shall be the responsibility of the University to ensure that an employee called back shall be provided with the eight (8) consecutive clear hours. To this end, the University may instruct the employee to leave before the usual quitting time of his/her regular shift and/or to report after the usual starting time of his/her next regular shift. Where such instruction is given, the employee's pay shall not be docked, nor shall s/he be required to make up, for such regular hours not worked. Where such instruction is not given for whatever reason, the employee shall be paid at double time for all hours worked on his/her next regular shift which fall within the eight (8) consecutive clear hours.
