For each additional hour that such an employee works after the 2 hours for which he or she is paid call back pay, the employee must be paid overtime at the rate of time and one-half of his or her normal rate of pay if he or she is eligible pursuant to NRS 284.180<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/ZH7_C31XrwuWZzKKsDus64?domain=leg.state.nv.us>.

(NRS 284.065<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/7rgmCZ6nG0UXz9gguzDUxb?domain=leg.state.nv.us>, 284.155<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/ECY0C1wNp4uL8NGGCGrr4n?domain=leg.state.nv.us>, 284.175<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/HFczC2kNqWU07z33CBrGwk?domain=leg.state.nv.us>)

     2.  When a nonexempt employee in the classified service of the State who is on standby status begins the performance of his or her regular duties after receiving notice to work, he or she ceases to be on standby status and qualifies for straight time or overtime pay, whichever is applicable, for the actual time worked.

     4.  Cash payment is the preferred method of compensation pursuant to this section, but compensatory time off, not to exceed the maximum allowed pursuant to subsection 3 of NAC 284.250<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/rKfPC4x3vLtRrK55hV90qj?domain=leg.state.nv.us>, must be granted in lieu of cash payment if the employee requests compensatory time and the agency approves the request.

     5.  Any class designated by statute as a 24-hour class does not automatically qualify for this additional pay.

Good morning everyone. Here is Colorado's information.

C. If hours are evenly split between shifts, the higher shift differential rate applies to all hours worked during the shift.

Board Rules
Other Premium Pay
3-43. Shift Differential is additional pay beyond base pay for employees working shifts. Eligible classes are published in the annual pay plan. Department heads may designate eligibility for individual positions in classes not published and shall maintain records for such cases. Shift differential does not apply to any periods of paid leave. Second shift rate applies when half or more of the scheduled work hours fall between 4:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. Third shift rate applies when half or more of the scheduled work hours fall between 11:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. If hours are evenly split between shifts, the higher shift differential rate applies to all hours worked during the shift. (1/1/18)
3-44. Call Back applies when an eligible employee is required to report to work before the start or after the end of a scheduled shift. If there is no release from work between the call back hours and regular shift, it is considered a continuation of the shift and call back does not apply. When call back applies, a minimum of two (2) hours of the employee’s regular base pay is guaranteed. Eligible employees are those who are eligible for overtime, and any call back time is counted as work time. Employees exempt from overtime are also eligible when approved by a department head. (1/1/18)
3-45. On Call is additional pay beyond base pay for employees specifically assigned, in advance, to be accessible outside of normal work hours and where freedom of movement and use of personal time is significantly restricted. Eligible classes and the rate are published in the annual pay plan. A department head may designate eligibility for individual positions in classes not published and maintain records of such on-call designations. Only time while actually on call shall be paid at the special rate. In call back situations, employees eligible for both on call and call back pay shall receive call back pay only. (1/1/18)

Good morning –

Fellow NCASG members, the State of Missouri has a bill currently working its way through an emergency supplemental legislative session. Part of this bill, if approved, would provide a $2 shift differential to team members in our congregate care 24/7 facilities working evening or night shift. Our division has been tasked with creating language that would provide some limitations on what hours are truly considered evening and night. We have several departments that have 24/7 facilities and not all of their shift start/stop at the same time.

If your state currently has shift differentials for evenings and/or nights, could you please provide me with one or both of the following:

1)     The language that outlines what hours are covered by the shift differential
AND/OR

2)     Any policy language your state has regarding shift differentials.

Since this is an emergency supplemental, it will likely move fast through the legislative process. We would greatly appreciate responses by close of business Friday, December 10. I apologize for the quick turnaround time, but we are preparing for a meeting early next week.

Appreciate all of you, and have a great rest of your week! J

Thanks,
