Common use of Canine Program Clause in Contracts

Canine Program. It is agreed that deputies who are assigned to the Canine Program spend up to 4 hours each week on all extraneous duties related to the Program outside of regular assigned shift time. This time (up to 4 hours) is to be considered assigned work time and paid at the deputy's applicable pay rate. In any week in which the deputy works 40 hours exclusive of these extraneous Program duties, the 4 hours of extraneous duties are overtime hours, to be paid at time and one-half. No time in excess of the above weekly limit shall be expended on these duties without prior approval of the appropriate supervisor. This canine program may be canceled at any time at the discretion of the Sheriff without further obligation to meet and confer. Nothing in this section replaces, changes, or modifies any other right or terms and conditions of employment specified in resolutions, Memoranda of Understanding, the Employer-Employee Relations Policy or other documents applicable to the SJDSA.
