Common use of Changes in Work Schedule Clause in Contracts

Changes in Work Schedule. (a) Changes in Employees' Day or Days Off - The posting of the nine (9) day schedule referred to in Section 8.2 shall freeze the employees' days off for the following nine (9) day period. (b) Work on Scheduled Day Off - An employee may be required to work on a scheduled day off. Seventy-two (72) hours' notice prior to 12:01 A.M. of the scheduled day off must be given, except if less notice is given a Twenty-One Dollar ($21.00) penalty shall be paid. Except as provided in the following paragraph, in the event that such notice is given within such seventy-two (72) hour period, at least eight (8) hours must elapse between the end of the employee's previous tour and the start of a tour on any originally scheduled day off. If less than eight (8) hours elapse and the employee agrees to work, then the elapsed time will be paid for as time worked and all hours will be paid for as one (1) continuous tour. In the event that the Company notifies an employee to report for work on a scheduled day off and then cancels such tour less than seventy-two (72) hours but more than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the scheduled starting time of work on such day off, the employee shall be paid a penalty of Thirty-Six Dollars ($36.00); however, such employee shall be paid for such tour if (i) after such cancellation, he or she is again notified to report for work on such scheduled day off and the employee's tour is again canceled, or (ii) the Company cancels such tour upon less than such twenty-four (24) hours' notice. (c) (i) Daily Schedule Changes - Notice of daily schedule changes affecting starting time shall be given no later than 7:00 PM of the second (2nd) day prior to the day in question. If schedule changes are desired thereafter, such changes can only be made by adding work time to the previously scheduled hours at overtime rates as specified in Section 8.5. The previous sentence, however, shall not apply where notice of a daily schedule change affecting starting time is given after 7:00 PM of the second (2nd) day prior to the day in question and the schedule change does not alter the employee’s starting time by more than two (2) hours.
