Do you have to pull it and how often?
I do every fourth week from 8AM Monday to 8AM Monday. Kinda wrecks your weekend but it's an extra $100 a week plus the call out and OT.

Don't have to currently, but at my previous job it was one week a month. Even though I was rarely called and got $5/hour for carrying the beeper 3:30pm to 7:00 am M-F, and all weekend, I hated being on a leash and would often give it up to any coworker who wanted it. |

12 weeks a year minimum. one hour of pay per weekday, 2 hours for weekends and holidays. 2 hour min per callout, $20 meal if call out within 2 hours of end of standard shift.
Average 25-60 hours of OT depending on time of the years and how stupid the public is on a particular week. |

Just started being on the duty roster, of course this is the ICS roster and I am IC. There are 6 of us (about to be 5 as one guy is moving) and its from 4PM Thursday til 4PM Thursday. And I am a salary employee, so no OT, and as of now, no bonus pay.
Supposedly they plan to raise the number of eligible IC to 8, which would be great, but I will believe it when it happens. |

6 months out of the year... two weeks on two weeks off... $3.50 an hour to carry a phone for one location... im cool with it...
beats the hell out of my last job where 24/7 365 i was "expected" to answer my work phone and respond no matter what... however i would only get $50 every 6 weeks... durring the winter it was slow but if it was over 80° i would get called daily... hated that friggin company |

Used to do 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. 4 hrs straight pay per week for being on call, plus a company truck to drive home those 2 weeks (except last 6 months of doing it). Plus 4 hr minimum for a call out payed at OT rate.
Now, with my new employer, I am more or less a phone call away all the time, but there is no real expectation, and very rarely do I even get calls, so I do not feel like I am on a leash like previously. Not too shabby really. Even though the extra pay was nice, being on call and tethered really sucked! |
