Reporting pay provision does not apply to pre-arranged overtime work on a Sunday.
The applicant union referred a grievance to the Ontario Labour Relations Board under section 124 of the Labour Relations Act, alleging that the employer breached the collective agreement regarding reporting pay.
Five carpenters worked five hours of pre-arranged overtime on a Sunday and were paid for five hours at double time.
The union argued that under Article 18, the employees were entitled to an additional four hours' pay because they worked one hour into the second half of the shift.
The Board dismissed the grievance, finding that Article 18 applies only to regularly scheduled daily work and not to extraordinary overtime situations on weekends where there are no normal daily hours.
