Changes to Nightwork and Rest Time policy. Currently, the ERMU nightwork and rest time policy states a <br />regular field worker will be provided with one hour paid rest time for each hour worked between 10:00 <br />p.m. and 6:00 a.m. (nightwork). Employees requested the following changes to the policy: <br /> A regular field worker shall be provided with a minimum of two hours of paid rest time for each <br />occurrence they are asked to report for nightwork. This aligns with the pay provision in the ERMU <br />call out time policy which states regular field workers who are asked to report for work outside <br />their regular working hours shall be paid a minimum of two hours each time they report for work. <br /> A regular field worker asked to work four or more hours nightwork hours will receive following day <br />off for paid rest time. <br /> 3a.
