No rule is necessary. All that's needed is an extra record in the pay rate
file. The regular workers get one pay rate, and the mechanics get the
special pay rate. Union payroll software has handled this for decades.

My first eye-opening experience with business rules was the rule "Anyone
who took care of Mr Kelly's car during the depression gets a nickle an
hour above the union rate."  That happened to be one guy.  But there had
to be a rule. How does one put that rule in the database?

That's what a properly designed database does, enforce business rules with
constraints and relational integrity built in. It's not that hard to build.
