My company has an established policy for on-call compensation - I'm not a conslutant:
First on-call $20.00 per weekday evening $50.00 per weekend/holiday There's also a rate for second on-call, but I can't remember what it is, as IT doesn't use that. Of course, as senior guy, I'm always second on call, so of course, I don't get the benefit of it. It's a nice bump to the paycheck every few weeks when I take the cell phone, though.
