There is a daily minimum charge of 10 hours per day. (Day Rate) There are no exceptions.

A rate of 1.5 X the hourly rate applies after the 10th worked hour through the 14th worked hour. (Time and a half)

A rate of 2.0 X the hourly rate applies from the start of the 15th hour and remains in effect until 8 hours off (Turnaround) are achieved between calls. (Double Time)

Overtime will be charged at 1.5 X the hourly rate for calls starting between 12:00 AM (Midnight) and 6:59 AM.

Overtime will also be charged for the following Holidays:

Easter Sunday

Memorial Day

July 4th

Labor Day

Thanksgiving Day

Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

Sundays are like any other day unless the date falls on one of the above mentioned holidays.

Turnaround is defined as having 8 hours off between calls. If there is less then 8 hours off between calls, whatever rate the technician was in during the previous call will become the new base "Day Rate". For example the technician worked a total of 14 hours on the first call. The first 10 hours is the minimum daily "Day Rate". The next 4 hours are at 1.5 X the hourly rate per hour. The technician is then released but must return 6 hours later. The rate is then 1.5 X the hourly rate per hour for a minimum daily charge of 10 hours (Day Rate), 1.5 X the hourly rate through the 14th worked hour, then 2.0 X the hourly rate per hour remains until turnaround is achieved. If the technician were in 2.0 X the hourly rate per hour and turnaround was not achieved, "Double Time" would be in effect until there were 8 hours off.
