The employer "read" a three page written
reprimand to the employee. The CBA states that

Overtime Calculation
WSP is using an overtime calculation that is in
violation of the contract. They can’t verify if the
person was paid correctly for overtime and pay stubs do
not contain clear information so the employee, can
determine if they were paid correctly. Management can’t
verify if the employee’s holiday work was counted
towards overtime at the end of the workweek; or if the
holiday relief pay counted.

standard 8 or 10 hour day to avoid the payment of
overtime.
