Asked to start before scheduled start time?

[By The Book]

Section 2
Any employee may be required to report to work before his/her reg-
ular starting time and in such event, he/she shall be paid at the rate
of one and one-half (1 1/2) times his/her regular straight-time
hourly rate for all hours worked before his/her regular starting time
in addition to the employee’s regular guarantee.

The last part......about the guarantee is huge, good good!

Time and a half?

I usually do that on Sunday....so it's double time for me!....Ching Ching

 

[Cementups]

The only thing it is for us is just getting to that OT mark earlier in the day.

 

[Dr.Brownz]

If im there at 845pm and the schedule said 9am and they want everyone to start early becaus preload miraculously finished early I say no and proceed to not pay attention at the pcm. Then at 9 I get up and stretch for 4 minutes then I go to work

 

[Dr.Brownz]

If you start an hour early and you leave work due to illness three hours later, you still get overtime for that one hour.

Here they do not count leaving work due to illness as an occurrence

 

[Dr.Brownz]

There are none.

Work before 6am is time and a half here. Your local must suck

Well I'm in the central states. And never have been paid 1x1/2 when asked to come in at 820-830 to run EAM's. I don't know if it's because they asked me and I didn't mind to come in. Yet I am an on call at 815 driver (which I have only not been called in twice in 2 years) so that can be an issue. Don't know

I think you missed the point. We're talking about overtime.

What is your "posted" start time? If you drive and are already on overtime at 8 hours and receive the difference of when you started earlier than your posted start time, you are being paid time and a half. An example is if you are on the clock for 9 hours and start 1 hour before your scheduled start and you are paid 1 hour overtime.

 

[HEFFERNAN]

So your saying that if Saturday is a sixth punch and over time rate for all those hours ?

That's not how it's worded in the central.

I'm in New England
That's how it's done here
The OP did not name a specific state or region
If he said he was in CS, I would not have replied.

Your not saying you're only going to reply to New England posts are you?

...in addition to that. Obviously. I can read

Nope

The hour before your regular start time is 1 1/2 times your regular rate.
As is anything after your scheduled 8 hours is up

Sort of.

anything after your scheduled 8 hours is up

Your scheduled 8 hours is from your posted schedule, not your early start.

If you start 1 hour early, you will be paid time and a half for that hour, but you will not get overtime on the backend until you work 8 hours straight time, 8 hours from your posted start time. At least in the Central.

And that right there is what apparently confuses the hell out of my BA.

The way I read it is you should get 7 hours regular and 2 hours of OT in this scenario.

 

[Brownslave688]

Then what's the point of the language?

 

[oldngray]

Then what's the point of the language?

For drivers who usually get OT every day it makes little difference. It does make a difference for part timers who get little OT though.

 

[Mugarolla]

Then what's the point of the language?

Just to cover you if you only work, say, 8 hours.

If you started 1 hour early, and only ended up working 8 hours total, you would be paid 1 hour OT and 7 hours straight time.
