Except in emergencies, an employee who is scheduled to report for work, has not been notified to the contrary, and presents himself for work as scheduled, shall be paid for at least four (4) hours at the hourly or applicable rate of pay. If work on the employee’s regular job is not available for reasons beyond his control, the City may, at the City’s discretion, assign the employee substitute work.
Employees who start work and are later compelled to stop because of inclement weather or other conditions beyond their control shall be paid for the hours they work, but they shall be paid for not less than four (4) hours at the straight time rate.
Employees released hereunder prior to the end of their regular shift may be required to stand-by and keep themselves available for immediate call-back during the balance of their regular shift (for which time they shall be entitled to stand-by pay under Article 3, section 3-6, “STAND-BY PAY” hereof). An employee may request the use of any accrued leave time, exclusive of sick leave, to cover the balance of his regular scheduled work shift. Employees called back to work shall be entitled to their hourly rate of pay for the balance of their regularly scheduled shift.
