If assigned as temporary replacement for an absent supervisor, the member shall be paid ____ percent above current rate for each completed shift worked in the temporary position.

• A. 2
• B. 6
• C. 4
• D. 3

Answer: (D)

When someone fills in as a supervisor on a temporary basis, the extra duties justify a pay bump. The rule here gives three percent above the member’s current rate for each completed shift worked in the temporary position. This means you actually receive the premium only for shifts you complete while acting in the higher role, recognizing the added responsibility for those periods. The bump isn’t applied to days outside the temporary assignment or to incomplete shifts.
