Common use of Flexible Work Scheduling Arrangements Clause in Contracts

Flexible Work Scheduling Arrangements. (a) Supervisors and Employees may mutually agree to individual flexible scheduling arrangements that are mutually beneficial and that result in variations to standard work schedules. Such schedules are to be determined between the Employee and their supervisor, it being understood that the normal hours of work per week will continue to be observed but that the hours worked from day to day will be flexible. (b) In certain positions, hours of work will vary widely to meet the requirements of the work. In such circumstances, the standard hours of work per week will be observed over a scheduling period jointly determined between the Employees concerned and their supervisors. Where the work requirements result in Employees working in excess of the standard weekly hours over an extended period of time, the University will ensure that time off is scheduled in equivalent blocks of time to suit the Employee's preferences. (c) Any concerns that may arise over arrangements established pursuant to this Article may be raised as an item for the agenda on the Joint Working Conditions Committee.
