A. If an employee, other than a police or fire suppression employee, who is on call is not confined to his or her home or any particular place, but is required only to leave word where he or she may be reached, the hours spent on such standby call are not working time. Any such employee who is requested to be on call under this section, on his or her normal day off, shall be compensated at the rate of twenty dollars per eight-hour shift. Such employee actually called back to work during such on-call time shall be paid the standby rate and his or her hourly rate for one and one-half times the hours worked computed to the nearest one-tenth of an hour. All standby assignments must be made and authorized by the department head.

B. Fire prevention employees shall be entitled to standby pay in the amount of twenty dollars for each holiday where required to standby. Such employees required to standby on weekends shall be compensated at the rate of five dollars per eight-hour shift. (Ord. 2782 § 8, 1982; Ord. 2567 § 3, 1980; prior code § 3.18.154)
