Driver Duties Clause Samples
The Driver Duties clause defines the specific responsibilities and obligations that a driver must fulfill under an agreement. Typically, this includes requirements such as maintaining a valid driver's license, adhering to traffic laws, ensuring the vehicle is in safe operating condition, and promptly reporting any incidents or violations. By clearly outlining these expectations, the clause helps ensure safe and lawful operation of vehicles, reduces liability for the employer or contracting party, and provides a basis for accountability if the driver fails to meet their obligations.
Driver Duties. During regular paid work hours within the driver’s regular job assignment, a driver is expected to use non-driving paid time to attend to duties which are reasonably connected with his/her job. However, if a driver has no paid time remaining after a route has been driven, the District will pay the driver his/her regular rate of pay to complete duties which are reasonably connected with his/her job, which include, but are not limited to, the following: • Pre-trip inspection* • Post-trip inspection* • Student behavior write-ups • On-bus video review • Returning forgotten item left by student • Fueling the bus • Sweeping the bus* • Bilingual translation services for the District • No-child-left-on-bus inspection* • Mandatory meetings with the District • Delivery of bus for mechanical servicing and • Route adjustment/review meetings with the District. * NOTE: All of the above duties without an asterisk require prior authorization for compensation if outside regular paid work hours. However, for those duties with an asterisk, it is assumed that such duties will be completed within the regular paid work hours of the driver’s regular job assignment. If there are special circumstances as a result of which these duties are not completed within the regular paid work hours of the driver’s regular job assignment, prior authorization for payment must be obtained in order to qualify for additional compensation.
