FACULTY OVERLOAD Clause Samples

FACULTY OVERLOAD. The use of full-time faculty to teach overload courses can contribute in a number of ways to effective instruction. Most importantly, these contributions include greater consistency between day and evening offerings and expertise in both course content and teaching effectiveness. However, the amount of full-time faculty overload must remain reasonable and be linked to an evaluation process to help assure the quality and effectiveness of instruction. In a semester when a faculty member is under contract to provide full-time instruction at the College, they may be teaching a course in which part of the hours move them to full load (15 credit hours or 18 contact hours), and the remaining course hours are overload. These overload hours are excluded from the restrictions outlined in the next paragraph. When a faculty member is under contract to provide full-time instruction at the College, their overload will normally not exceed ten (10) credit hours or twelve (12) contact hours per semester. All overload hours must have the approval of the faculty member's Assistant ▇▇▇▇. Any exceptions to these restrictions must be approved by the Chief Academic Officer. In a semester when a faculty member is not under a full-time teaching contract with the College, their teaching load (payable at the appropriate overload rate) will normally not exceed twenty-five (25) credit hours or thirty (30) contact hours during a sixteen week session, or eighteen (18) credit hours or twenty-two (22) contact hours during an ten week session. All hours must have approval of the faculty member's Assistant ▇▇▇▇. Any exceptions to these restrictions must be approved by the Chief Academic Officer.

FACULTY OVERLOAD. ‌ When the Employer does not have the capacity to offer a course section by assigning a regular or non-regular type 2 faculty member that section as part of their workload, a qualified non-regular type 1 instructor may be hired. No earlier than one month prior to the commencement of each semester, the Employer may, with the faculty member's agreement, engage a full-time regular or non-regular type 2 faculty member to take the course on an overload basis (e.g. reduced workload in the subsequent semester, or if not possible, paid for the extra course on an equivalent contract basis). However, a full-time regular or non-regular type 2 faculty member may not be engaged to work more than 125% of a full-time workload in an academic year, unless a qualified non-regular type 1 faculty member cannot be found to teach the additional course(s). (a) Overload Pay Regular and non-regular type 2 faculty members who teach overloads as defined above will receive additional pay at their normal rate plus 25% in lieu of benefits for the overload, for the time period in question. Example A: A faculty member teaching eight additional lecture hours per week for a complete summer semester would be paid 150% of their normal rate for the complete semester plus 25% in lieu of benefits for the additional 50%. Example B: A faculty member in mode 24 teaching an additional 3 hours per week for 6 weeks would be paid 112.5% (3 hours divided by 24 hours per week equals 12.5%) plus 25% for benefits for the specified 6-week period. (b) Compensatory Time-Off (i) Regular and non-regular type 2 faculty members may choose, prior to starting an overload, whether to accept financial compensation or compensatory time off as payment for the overload. (ii) Compensatory time off must be taken no later than three (3) years from when the overload was completed. The scheduling of the time off would be by mutual agreement between the ▇▇▇▇ and the faculty member. If the faculty member and the ▇▇▇▇ are unable to reach agreement on the scheduling, the ▇▇▇▇ will schedule the time off or initiate an automatic payout of the compensatory time off portion that exceeds the three (3) years. The deadline for time off would be indicated on the faculty overload contract by the ▇▇▇▇. (iii) ▇▇▇▇▇ to taking compensatory time off, the faculty member may choose to take payment instead. In such cases, payment will be made as in (a) above based on the member’s annual salary at the time the overload was earned.

FACULTY OVERLOAD. When the Employer does not have the capacity to offer a course section by assigning a regular or temporary (appointed under Article 1.04(d)) faculty member that section as part of his/her workload, a qualified contract instructor may be hired. In the event that a qualified contract instructor cannot be found to teach the course, the Employer may, with the faculty member's agreement, engage a regular or temporary (appointed under Article 1.04(d)) faculty member to take the course on an overload basis (e.g. reduced workload in the subsequent semester, or if not possible, paid for the extra course on an equivalent contract basis).

(ii) When a contract inventory list of suitable candidates is established, the primary consideration will be the applicant's qualifications, abilities and experience in relation to existing vacancies or anticipated vacancies.
