Grievance dismissed; scheduled holiday work paid at double time for actual hours worked, not minimum daily hours.
The union grieved that an employee who volunteered and was scheduled in advance to work 5.5 hours on Remembrance Day was entitled to double time for a minimum of 8 hours under article 7.6 of the collective agreement, rather than double time for actual hours worked under article 7.4.
The arbitrator dismissed the grievance, finding that article 7.6 was intended to apply to employees called in to work on short notice, whereas article 7.4 applied to employees scheduled in advance.
Applying article 7.6 to scheduled employees would render article 7.4 redundant.
