Post #57 nailed it. Are you signing out and resigning in under a different code, part-way through your work day?
PT OT question.

Why are you getting an hour lunch if you’re a preloader?
What exactly did you work? Just preload? Did you deliver or shuttle air? Did you extend onto another shift?

Sounds to me like the 1 hour lunch is intended to avoid paying OT. Pretty smart on management part.

If it’s all preload then they shouldn’t be able to split shift him and deny his OT. If there’s an operation running then he should be working instead of taking a meal period. If it is a split shift then it is what it is. First time as an hourly I realized I wasn’t getting OT after 5 on split shift I was pissed. Nobody clarifies that..

I think management is saying he is double shifting and under their supplement double shifters don't receive OT after 5 hours. Pretty shady but I believe it.If it’s all preload then they shouldn’t be able to split shift him and deny his OT.

During peak I worked "3" shifts but still got OT over 5 hours. I guess it's my local but if you double you get OT after 5 NO MATTER WHAT.

You forfeit your ot after 5 hrs when you take a 1 hr break. The only way around it is to go home after you work you five hours. Or if you work straight through the first 6 hrs with out the break between the 4-5. They are also coding you as if your working 2 shifts. Also you are guaranteed 8 hrs of work

It seems as though there have been several posts recently of time card shaving. Maybe a class action suit with the Dept of Labor to investigate the matter. With a possible huge fine pending, the company will straighten the matter out.
Possibly, the supervisor's being under pressure from upper management to make goals are shaving time and doing hourly work. Grievances haven't been able to stop these problems as they continue on. But the Dept of Labor will stop them. This company does not like the government looking into their records.

What do you mean I’m guaranteed 8 hours?
If you work a second shift and they aren’t paying you ot after 5 your guaranteed 8 hrs. I may wrong but that’s what I was always told

Not true. Drivers have a start time, they can’t change it due to the preload not being wrapped up. They send preloaders home when the drivers start because they are now paying 2 people to load.

Overtime after 5 hours period.

Unless they kick us off early and start drivers up early. Which they also have done.

Do you need an air compressor or tire gauge
sometimes they send preloaders home, sometimes they dont

In the central its OT after 5 hours of work no matter a hr lunch or not. What region are you in? I would go to your union steward tomorrow and address this issue immediately, you should have 1.5 of OT even with a hour lunch unpaid.

In southwest package rider, it states nothing on part time over time and only mentions full time employee overtime. Does this mean part timers only get OT if they work over 8? Or would their OT apply to what is stated in the master?

What does the Master say about OT for PT employees?

Apparently nothing, so why would the local supplement not mention anything for part time employees? That’s some bs

OT for PT is only in certain riders.
We do not get OT until after 8 in the west. I've brought this up at contract proposals twice now. I suggest doing the same.
