Date :Définition
The wage rates actually set by contract, by statute, or by company policy for hours worked in excess of or outside the regularly scheduled workday, workweek, shift, etc.
Note :
Overtime rates : overtime rates are sometimes referred to as "penalty rates" in as much as the purpose of the union in insisting on high overtime rates is to make overtime expensive and therefore few employers will consider asking workers to remain after hours. The concept of the imposition of penalty rates is reflected in most union contracts throughout the world in the following manner. Straight overtime (i.e. working beyond the regular shift hours on a normal working day) is usually paid for at one and a quarter or sometimes one and half times the normal hourly rate. Second, when a worker is requested to work on a holiday the practice is in many countries to charge the employer double the normal hourly rate. Finally if an employer requests a worker to report for work on a legal holiday which also happens to be a Sunday, the union may demand that the worker be paid at the rate of three times the normal hourly rate. This system of penalty rates guarantees to a large extent that the workers' leisure time is not invaded by the employer. Unions should not lose sight of the need for establishing a wage rate based on a normal working week and sufficient to maintain a proper standard of living. The workers' life and leisure time spent with his family is far more important than working extra time in order to get more money.
