Emergency Call-Back
Subject: Administering Wages and Salaries
Number: 6.7.15
Issued: 3/1/82
Revised: 2/28/03
Applicability
All nonexempt staff.
Definition
An emergency call-back occurs when a nonexempt staff member is asked
by management to return to work after leaving the university premises
following his or her work shift to take care of some work-related
emergency which cannot wait until regularly scheduled working hours.
A staff member must be paid for a minimum of four hours for each
call-back.
Calculation of Call-Back Pay
If the hours worked are less than four, actual time worked should
be recorded on the paper/electronic timecard as Hours Worked. The
balance of the four hours should be recorded as Leave with Pay.
If, at the end of the standard workweek, hours paid total more than 40, the staff member will receive time and one-half for all hours paid over 40 (See Policy 6.7.12, Overtime).
