Common use of Four-Day Workweek Clause in Contracts

Four-Day Workweek. a. The Company shall determine the eligible job classifications and locations. Participation in the ten-hour, four-day week shall be determined by a majority vote of the eligible work group. If an employee should be unable to work the ten-hour, four-day week because of overriding domestic reasons, the schedule shall not be made mandatory. b. The Company reserves the right to revert back to a 5/8 workweek in a work group or location where the 4/10 workweek proves not to be in the Company's best interest. Management and the Union will jointly, at the local level, work together to implement the four-day workweek schedule for a particular work group. c. Transfers/changes to or from a four-day workweek should, when practical, be made at the beginning of the workweek. d. The normal workweek shall consist of four (4), ten-hour tours. The four (4), ten-hour tours must be scheduled on consecutive days, unless a service emergency clearly dictates an exception or the eligible work group agrees by majority vote to one nonconsecutive work day. For the purpose of this Agreement, a "tour" shall be defined as "The entire scheduled work day of an employee, which will be ten (10) hours or less." e. Overtime will be paid when an employee works in excess of ten (10) hours per day, or in excess of forty (40) hours in a workweek for employees covered under this collective bargaining of agreement.
