Continuous Rotating Shifts Clause Samples

Continuous Rotating Shifts. Wherever service requirements impose the necessity for continuous shifts, such shifts shall be rotated between employees concerned, to the end that each employee shall serve his fair share of each shift. However, if any work group elects to fill such shifts without rotating, this practice may be followed by mutual agreement between the Company and the Brotherhood. The length of intervals between regular periodic changes in shifts shall be as arranged by mutual agreement. So far as is practical to do so, there shall be equal division of Saturday and Sundays off duty, and there shall be fair rotation in any job of the desirable and undesirable duties attaching to that job. Schedules showing the regular days and hours to be worked by each employee for a complete cycle of rotation shall be posted at least seven (7) days prior to the effective date.

In any scheduled cycle of rotation, if an employee be required to change his presently established working time, he shall be notified in advance and he shall receive overtime rate of time and one-half for all work done outside his regularly scheduled working hours, for the first three days worked on his new schedule, and straight time thereafter. When, however, an employee takes a permanent job resulting in a promotion, no such overtime payments will be due from the resulting change in schedule. After having completed four or more days on the new schedule, if employees are required, within the cycle of rotation, again to change their working time from that provided in the new schedule, they shall receive time and one-half for the first three days for all work done outside the new schedule just vacated.
