Associate Handbook 2018

Shift Workers

Eligible Associates who normally work shift hours will be paid overtime for complete half- hour periods over and above normal contractual working hours. The first hour of overtime worked each day cannot be claimed. Overtime is calculated on the basis outlined in the table above. Associates must obtain the approval of their Manager in advance of working overtime.

Administration and Authorisation

An Overtime Report form must be completed in respect of all overtime hours worked each month. The completed form must be approved by the Associate’s Manager and then submitted to the Payroll Division for payment in the next monthly salary. The form can be found on LockDocs within HR Forms.
