Change the contract to read: The first hour of OT per day is time and one half, the second hour is double time, and the third or more be triple time. No need to file for this. If it is truly a need (not to just cut runs and overdispatch) then let them pay immediately, not three months down the raod. Almos forget for those few out there that want alot of OT, they can use an opt in list to get all the time they want. This would also save alot of time and money as there would be no need for a 9.5 panel or committee.
