Is it 12 hours or 24 hours? Below is from the Saskatchewan website. Short shifting and split shifting are two separate concepts? What is the difference? Thank you.
Short-shifting
For the purpose of calculating overtime, the employee’s work “day” begins with the start of the employee’s first shift and ends 24 hours later. All hours worked within that 24-hour period count towards the overtime threshold.
Example:
Date Shift Starts Shift Ends Hours Worked
May 3 3:00 p.m. 11:00 p.m. 8 hours
May 4 7:00 a.m. 3:00 p.m. 8 hours
During the 24-hour period, beginning 3:00 p.m. on May 3 and ending 3:00 p.m. on May 4 the employee worked 16 hours. This employee must be paid eight hours regular pay and eight hours overtime pay.
