That’s a manager event, not an action. The QueuePause action[1] is what can be used. As for your question about behavior - I’m not sure, but I suspect it would not behave like that.

Excuse my mistake. I would write ManagerAction\_QueuePause not ManagerEvent\_QueueMemberPause

I tested it.  
How @jcolp mentioned If queue member has call after doing **Queue Member Pause** action call automatically do not pass to another member.
