Ruling on 7-Ddy
Overtime Pay

The UAW-CIO has asked OPM
for immediate conferences on the
question of overtime pay for Sat-
urday and Sunday which arises
from the 24-hour day, seven-day
week. in war industries, demanded
by President Roosevelt. Victor
Reuther, the union assistant de-
tense co-ordinator. said today.
Until after these conferences. he
said. and until the unions policy
making committee has reached
decision, no statement can be
made. He said seven-day employ
ment had long been urged to
spread employment.
Another union leader, Orval j..
Kincaid. regional director for the
Steel Workers Organizing Com
mittee (CIO), said his union
already has contracts in basis steel
(blast furnaces. open hearths and
coke plants) which demand no
overtime for Saturday and Sun
day if included in a 40-hour week.
STEEL WORKERS STATUS
Steel workers in fabricating
plants, however, receive overtime
for both days, regardless OF the
length of the work week, he said.
Kincaid said he would confer with
Philip Murray, SWOC and Go
president, on possible removal OF
premium pay for Saturday and
Sunday work.
Industry has opposed paying
overtime for Saturday and Sunday.
Leaders now say il is up TO the
government to decide. since most
work is on federal contracts.
Frank x. Martel. president of
the Detroit and Wayne County
Federation of Labor. said:
81 think that with a seven-day
production week the penalty
rates for Saturday and Sunday
work should be eliminated. This
particularly should apply to
shops engaged In the production
OF national defense materials
(empIoying mostly Go work
ers)."
EMERGENCY SERVICES
Martel added that he did not
think penalty rates should be abol-
ished in the building and service
fields (employing mostly AFL
workers. because, he said. these
are classified as emergency serv-
ices"
The only comment Of August E.
Scholle, state Go head. on over
time pay for Saturday or Sunday,
when falling in the regular five
days. was:
Labor will make the neces-
sary arrangements when the
time comes"
