Comment On-call (Score 1) 255
Where I am, the on-call person gets $1.50/hr to carry the pager, and 1.5 * hourly rate for work done as a result of a call, regardless of whether or not it was done on the phone, dial-up, or on-site. Also, if the person has a late night due to calls, it is expected that they will be late/absent the next day.
