5.2.1 On‑Call/Standby and Callback

  • Policy

    • California Correctional Health Care Services (CCHCS) and Division of Health Care Services (DHCS), California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) must ensure that employees are compensated in accordance with the applicable Bargaining Unit (BU) Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) provisions (rank and file employees) or California Department of Human Resources (CalHR) policy (excluded employees), for On-Call/Standby assignments and/or Callback time.

    • Not all BU MOUs have negotiated the same provisions regarding On-Call/Standby and Callback.  This policy serves to clarify the differences and similarities of the individual MOUs and provides guidance for excluded employees associated with the applicable BUs.  The On-Call/Standby Provisions and Compensation matrix (Appendix 1) and the Callback Provisions and Compensation matrix (Appendix 2) are attached to identify which provisions are applicable to each BU referenced in this document.

    • Effective upon release of this policy and procedure On-Call/Callback hours may be compensated either in cash or accrued Compensating Time Off (CTO) provided the accrual of CTO does not exceed the established cap.  The decision to allow cash compensation will be reviewed annually in March and will be determined based on the fiscal status of the Department.

  • Procedure

    • On-Call/Standby Assignment General Guidelines

      • When there is a requirement that an employee be available during specified off-duty hours to receive communication regarding a requirement to return to work and be fit and able to return to work, if required, this time is considered On-Call/Standby.  The requirement to carry an electronic device or respond when contacted does not necessarily entitle the employee to On-Call/Standby compensation

      • Employees scheduled for On-Call/Standby assignments at a Correctional Treatment Center (CTC) (Appendix 3) are expected to return to the worksite in a reasonable amount of time.  Please refer to the BU MOU for specific requirements.

      • For BUs that contain a Work Week Group (WWG) not authorized to receive overtime compensation (e.g., E and SE), but include a provision to compensate for On-Call/Standby, compensation shall be paid in cash or CTO provided the accrual of CTO does not exceed the established cap. Any accrual of CTO that will cause the balance to exceed the cap shall be paid in cash.

      • Additionally, CalHR Personnel Management Liaisons 2002-040 specifically states that excluded employees in WWG E (e.g., Chief Medical Executive [CME] and Regional Medical Executive [RME]) are not eligible for On-call/Standby compensation.

    • On-Call/Callback Assignment for BU 16

      • For BU 16 employees (Dentists, Physicians, Podiatrists, and Psychiatrists), On-Call and Callback are defined as (BU 16, MOU Section 7.9 On-Call/Callback Assignment):

      • On-Call Assignment

        • On-call assignment is defined as a work-shift which is performed in addition to the Unit 16 employees’ regularly scheduled workweek in which the Unit 16 employee is:

          • Available by telephone or electronic paging device at all times; and

          • Normally immediately available to return to the facility for any required medical support deemed necessary by the employee.  If the State deems it necessary, the State shall issue a Unit 16 employee an electronic paging device during an on-call assignment.

        • Those employees completing an on-call assignment of seven days shall receive eight hours CTO or eight hours compensation at management’s discretion for each on-call assignment.

        • Unit 16 employees who complete on-call assignments of less than seven days shall receive pro-rata CTO or pro-rata pay.

      • Callback Assignment

        • Unit 16 employees who are required to return to the institution for a work shift in addition to the Unit 16 employees’ regularly scheduled workweek shall receive hour for hour credit (CTO) with four hours guaranteed.  In addition to the hour for hour credit, and four hours guaranteed, Unit 16 employees shall be compensated for one hour (CTO) for travel time.  If funds are available for cash compensation, the State may choose cash instead of CTO.  It is at the State’s discretion whether cash is paid or CTO is accumulated.  Returns to the institution shall be documented.

      • NOTE:  Physician and Surgeons scheduled for On-Call/Standby assignments at CTCs are expected to return to the worksite within one hour of receiving telephonic communication.  At non-CTCs, employees are expected to return within a reasonable length of time, relative to the patient’s illness or injury.

    • On-Call Assignment for Excluded Employees Affiliated with BU 16

      • Excluded employees in WWG SE affiliated with BU 16 (Chief Physician and Surgeon [CP&S], Supervising Dentist, Chief Psychiatrist, etc.) may be eligible to receive On-Call compensation.  For example, when such an employee is acting as the treating physician because a rank and file physician is not available or a Physician Assistant (PA) or Nurse Practitioner (NP) is On-Call, the On-Call compensation will apply.  The same conditions, restrictions, and definitions for On-Call compensation that apply to rank and file employees in BU 16 also apply to excluded employees affiliated with BU 16.

    • Callback Time for BU 18

      • For BU 18 (Psychiatric Technician and Senior Psychiatric Technician), Callback is defined as (NOTE: The BU 18 MOU has no provision for On-Call Assignments):

      • BU 18 MOU Section 5.3 Callback Time

        • An employee who has completed a scheduled work shift, or an employee on an authorized day off, when ordered back to work shall be credited with a minimum of four hours work time at the employee’s appropriate rate of pay provided the call back to work is without having been notified prior to completion of the work shift and the work begins more than two hours after the completion of the scheduled work shift.

    • Standby/Callback Assignment for BU 19

      • For BU 19 (Health and Social Services/Professional) employees who are covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), Standby and Callback are defined as:

      • BU 19, MOU Section 6.3 Standby

        • For covered employees, standby is defined as the express requirement that an employee be available during specified off-duty hours to receive communication regarding a requirement to return to work.  It shall not be considered standby when employees are contacted or required to work but have not been required to be available for receipt of such contact.

        • Each department, or designee, may establish procedures with regard to how contact is to be made and with regard to response time while on standby.

        • An employee who is required to be on standby status will be compensated in the following manner: for every four hours on standby, an employee shall receive one hour of compensating time off.  For every hours on standby or major fraction thereof (30 minutes or more), an employee shall receive fifteen minutes of compensating time off.

        • No standby credit will be earned if the employee is called back to work and receives callback credit during any given four-hour period.

        • Standby and CTO credited as a result of standby shall be considered time worked for purposes of qualifying for overtime.

        • At the discretion of the State, CTO credited as a result of standby may be paid in cash to the employees.

      • BU 19, MOU Section 6.2 Voluntary Callback

        • For employees who are covered by the FLSA, the State will credit a Unit 19 employee with a minimum of four hours regular work time for an authorized callback when an employee is called back to work after completion of his/her regularly scheduled work shift and has left the work premises.

        • Callback credit will commence when the employee begins work and will terminate when the employee stops working.  However, hours worked which are contiguous to an employee’s regular working hours, which may include a meal period after completion of a regular work shift, will not be considered callback.

        • At the discretion of the State, callback credit may be paid in cash to the employee.

    • BU 19 Exception

      • On-Call/Callback Assignment for BU 19 Specific WWG E Employees

          • Unit 19 employees will receive eight hours CTO or eight hours of compensation, at managements’ discretion, for each completed on-call assignment of seven days.

          • Unit 19 employees who complete an on-call assignment of less than seven days shall receive prorated in either cash or CTO, at the employer’s discretion.

          • NOTE: Excluded employees covered under the side letter agreement referenced above are not subject to the requirement to return to the institution within one hour of receiving a call that requires them to do so.

        • Callback Assignment

          • Unit 19 exempt employees who are required to return to the institution for a work shift in addition to the Unit 19 employees’ regularly scheduled workweek shall receive hour for hour credit (CTO) with four hours minimum work guaranteed.  The four hours begins when the employee arrives at the institution.

          • Unit 19 employees called back to an institution, under the provisions of 6.XA, and who then leave and are called back again within the same four hour period, shall only be compensated for additional hours worked beyond the four hour call back guarantee.

          • In addition to the hour for hour credit, and four hour minimum, Unit 19 employees shall be compensated one hour for travel time.  Compensation shall be either CTO or cash, at the employer’s discretion.  Returns to the institution shall be documented.

      • BUs 1, 4, 11, 15, 17, and 20 MOU Section 19.12 Standby Time

        • “Standby” is defined as the express and absolute requirement that an employee be available during specified off-duty hours to receive communication regarding a requirement to return to work, and be fit and able to return to work, if required.  It shall not be considered standby when employees are contacted or required to return to work but have not been required to be available for receipt of such contact.

        • Each department, or designee, may establish procedures with regard to how contact is to be made (e.g., electronic paging device, phone) and with regard to response time while on standby.

        • An employee who is required to be on standby status will be compensated in the following manner: for every eight hours on standby, an employee shall receive two hours of CTO, which may be prorated on the basis of fifteen minutes CTO for each one hour of standby.  Standby may not be scheduled in less than one-hour increments.

        • Standby and CTO credited as a result of standby shall not be considered time worked for purposes of qualifying for overtime.

    • Compensation

      • The employee can elect to receive pay or CTO; however, if the receipt of CTO will result in exceeding the established cap, the portion exceeding the cap must be paid and not accrued.  Callback compensation shall be at the straight time hourly rate.  Exception to this policy for BU 19 FLSA-excluded employees refer to BU 19 compensation.

      • NOTE: Employees in WWG E and SE are not eligible for Callback compensation unless specifically stated in the BU contract.

The manager/supervisor is responsible for the review and approval of all Callback assignments documented by the employee on the CCHCS SB01B.

      • Employees are responsible for ensuring that all approved On-Call/Standby and Callback time documented on the CCHCS SB01A and CCHCS SB01B are accurately reflected on the CDCR 998-A, Employee’s Record of Attendance.  Managers/supervisors are responsible for verifying that On-Call/Standby and Callback hours reflected on the CCHCS SB01A and CCHCS SB01B are accurately documented on the CDCR 998-A.  Managers/supervisors are also responsible for approving and signing the CDCR 998-A once the information has been verified.  If the hours documented on the CDCR 998-A do not reflect the On-Call/Standby and Callback hours as documented on the approved CCHCS SB01A and CCHCS SB01B, the CDCR 998-A shall be returned to the employee for correction.
