There is no disagreement between Carrier and the Organization that Claimant worked all the hours of his work week, worked his first rest day September 12, 1970 and his second rest day September 13, 1970. Also, the work performed by Claimant was not work of an emergency nature. Carrier's contention being that the work performed by Claimant on his rest days was not part of his assignment.

Claimant held a five-day position with two assigned rest days in accordance with Rule 2 of the controlling agreement. Rule 2 also provides for six and seven day positions. In addition, Rule 2 provides for non-consecutive rest days, accumulation of rest time or other suitable or practicable plans which may be suggested by either of the parties.

Therefore, Carrier under Rule 2 is obligated to assign an employee two rest days, either Saturday and Sunday, Sunday and Monday or other consecutive rest days. If this does not meet their operating problem they may assign non-consecutive rest days or accumulated rest time. In the instant case Claimant's assigned rest days were Saturday and Sunday. The fact he worked at a location different from his fiveday position has no bearing on the case. He worked all of the hours in his work week and worked his first and second assigned rest day, which was not an emergency. Therefore, under Article V, April 24, 1970 agreement, Claimant is entitled to double time rate of pay for work performed on his second assigned rest day, Sunday, September 13, 1970. See Awards 6252, 6282, 6283. We accordingly sustain the claim.



        Claim sustained.

"All agreements, rules, interpretations and practices., however established., are amended to provide that service performed by a regularly assigned hourly or daily rated employee on the second rest day of his assignment shall be paid at double the basic straight time rate provided he has worked all the hours of his assignment in that work week and has err
