1. When an Employee is directed to perform the duties of a classification covered by this Collective Agreement to which is assigned a higher salary scale, they shall be paid in addition to their hourly rate as set out in the Salaries Appendix, the difference between the beginning rate in the salary scale for their classification and the beginning rate in the salary scale of the classification to which they are temporarily assigned.

This provision shall not apply where the period of temporary assignment is less than one (1) full shift.

An Employee so assigned shall continue to be covered by the terms and conditions of this Collective Agreement.
3. During periods of temporary assignment to a classification to which is assigned a higher salary scale, an Employee so assigned shall receive any overtime or call-back premiums based on the higher basic rate of pay.
