I need some expertise on defining 2 words for a contract.

I hope someone can help me with this.

I am trying to revise a section of our work contract.

And that is compensation and overtime.

-All overtime work among the employees within the building shall be

divided in so far as feasible and practical.

This is why: We have seniored people in the building that want to work the

prefered hours of there choice. 7am to 3pm and not 3pm to 11pm on Saturdays.

1 person is needed on 7am and 2 people on 3 to 11. We have 6 people that would want to work. 2 of those 6 have seniority where they would want to work the earlier.

How do I define feasible and practical that would take care of this and still

seem fair? The lowest of the 6 don't necessarily have to have the right to work it.

The 2 highest senior people said if one works the early Saturday, the other will work the next Saturday at 7am.
 
Feasible and practical are what you are trying to define?



DONT - get them out of the contract. Use definitive terms such as "Any and every hour over 40 hours in any given 5 day work week is to be paid time and a half of that employees houly wage up to 6.5 times current legal minimum wage (NY limitation)
 
I'd offer the overtime by a rotating list. If an employee doesn't want the hours they drop to the bottom of the list. If they accept the hours they go to the bottom of the list. Those who only want to work the early shift will get some of those hours and one that they don't. the hungry chaps will work more hours and hence get more pay.
