A Chargehand is someone who fills the requirements of a supervisor or a foreman while the primary person holding down the administrative and/or management-level duties is either unavailable or pre-disposed. This person typically has equivalent authority over workers as a manager, but carries the distinction of still being an hourly employee rather than a salaried employee or management-ranked position, and is therefore not affected by labor laws that often preclude management from being paid for overtime. Chargehands wage guidelines follow standard wage protocols according to local laws and (when applicable) union agreements.
