Would there be a difference to the on-call pay paid to management employees and non-management employees?

There could be. This is up to the employer to determine. Technically, if a management employee is salaried, and exempt from overtime, the employee need not be paid at all for on-call time. It would simply be considered part of the manager’s normal duties. Even if the manager was called in to work, he or she would not be entitled to additional pay. In most cases where an hourly employee is free to go about his or her personal activities, they need not be paid for time on call. However, if the hourly worker is called in, he or she must be compensated for that time. Some employers do choose to pay a worker for on call time. This can be a flat rate, or an hourly rate.  This is more commonly applied to hourly workers, rather than management employees.
