Orphaned shifts Sample Clauses

The "Orphaned shifts" clause defines how work shifts that become unassigned or unclaimed—often due to last-minute cancellations or no-shows—are managed within a scheduling or staffing agreement. Typically, this clause outlines the process for reassigning these shifts, such as notifying available staff, offering the shift to a pool of eligible workers, or specifying timeframes for filling the vacancy. Its core practical function is to ensure continuity of operations and minimize disruptions by providing a clear protocol for handling unexpected gaps in staffing.
Orphaned shifts. Once the final schedule has been posted additional shifts will be offered in order of seniority, to those employees who indicated their availability on the approved form. If more than one employee indicates an availability to work, the employer shall award the shift to the most senior qualified employee for whom the hours would constitute straight time. If no employees are available at straight time, the employer shall award the shift to the most senior qualified employee who has indicated the availability to work the shift at overtime. It is understood, however, that this provision shall not (1) obligate the Employer to overtime hours, double-time or any other premium payments, or (2) prevent the employer from assigning work to per diem employees for the purpose, in the Employer’s discretion, of maintain the skills of said per diem employees.
