Would like to hear how other companies work their rest periods . We have to either work 8 hours OT to get eight hours paid rest or work 3 hours or more between midnight and 8:00 am to get hour for hour paid rest the next day. Curious to hear how others do it . Thanks , Bear

You have it better then we do..Our rest period starts 8 hours before the start of the next days shift and we only get a maximum of 4 hours rest..Also if you work up to the start of your shift you can take the four hour rest in the afternoon. We are trying to get it changed next year in the contract so it will better for us...

Our contract says if you work 16 hours in a 24 hour period you are due 8 hours rest when you are released.

in the eight hours immediately preceeding your normal eight if you work two hours you get four hours rest time as long as you start your overtime before 3:00am. if you work five hours you get the whole day off as long as you start before 2:00am

If we work 4hrs or more on OT. we are on OT until we get an 8 hr rest period. If our rest period is during our regular shift we get straight time while on our rest period.

Max 16hours followed by a 10 hour break if that 10 hours covers any of your normal hours you get paid your normal hours up to when you can start again. Can't work more than 7 days straight without a 24 break.
