Western Supplement OT/Holidays

[Get me a steward]

Why does the western supplement have absolutely no language on OT or Forced Holidays or Unscheduled work days like other riders/supplements? Can't figure out if Friday and Saturday are OT or not and noone in the hub or this forum seems to know

The reason is obvious. Follow the money.

What local are you?

Friday is OT, but Saturday is confusing because we are off Thursday, which makes Saturday a 5th punch in day not sixth.

Eastern here, Friday and Saturday are ot.

It's in your JC or rider. Work performed on holidays shall be compensated at time and a half. So more than likely Friday and Saturday is 1-1/2 for you.

Double time plus holiday pay for Friday in my center.

Most likely Friday is time and a half, not necessarily Saturday.

Most supplements do not count a holiday as a punch. Saturday may only be the 5th punch and be paid at straight time.

I believe the western supplement states a work week is Monday thru Friday or Tuesday thru Saturday. If your work week is mon-fri most likely Saturday is time and a half. No mention of any punches.

Does the holiday count as a punch?

No mention of punches. My JC says Saturday is overtime unless on a tues-sat work week.

Then I would say Saturday defers to the Joint Council 37 Rider. Saturday being a day off outside the standard work week paid at time and a half.

Other areas have different rules, what else is new, but it looks like the Western is time and a half for Saturdays regardless of any days off during the standard work week.

Friday is double time plus holiday pay. Yes a holiday counts as a punch here in Texas so Saturday will be time and half.

Look under hours of work/overtime in your JC37

It appears to have disappeared when this new contract was written in all supplements. Good timing for the company huh?! Bad timing for my family life.

I'm in the Central. No Joint Council rider. Per the CRSA, 6th day worked is time and a half.

Saturday would only be the 5th day worked, not working on Thanksgiving. Saturday would be straight time.

Any other week where I worked 5 days, and had the hours to work Saturday, it would be time and a half. Not this week with the holiday.
