Changes of shifts do not qualify an EMPLOYEE for overtime under this ARTICLE. 10.2 Overtime will be distributed as equally as practicable. 10.3 Overtime offered and refused by EMPLOYEES will, for record purposes under ARTICLE 10.2, be considered as unpaid overtime worked. 10.4 For the purpose of computing overtime compensation, overtime hours worked shall not be pyramided, compounded or paid twice for the same hours worked; for the purpose of computing overtime compensation, an EMPLOYEE using earned vacation leave, compensatory time off, Earned Sick and Safe Time (ESST) or paid holidays is considered to be working. 10.5 Overtime will be calculated to the nearest fifteen (15) minutes. 10.6 EMPLOYEES have the obligation to work overtime or call backs if requested by the EMPLOYER unless unusual circumstances prevent the EMPLOYEES from so working. 10.7 EMPLOYEES will be allowed to take compensatory time off in lieu of receiving over time compensation.
