Overtime List. A. Whenever practical, overtime shall be assigned on a rotating basis by seniority from an existing list containing the names of qualified full-time employees in the department who have volunteered to be placed on the overtime list and normally perform the work being assigned for overtime. Initial distribution of overtime shall be on the basis of departmental seniority with the first opportunity being offered to the bargaining unit member with the highest seniority. Thereafter, it shall be administered on a rotating basis as provided in Section 8.9. The list shall be established within 60 days after the ratification of this contract and shall be revised as necessary. The list shall be available to the Union upon request. B. However, due to operational needs, the Employer may assign mandatory overtime work as needed, without regard to the overtime list. Mandatory overtime would begin with the least senior qualified employee in the affected classification in the department and if more employees are needed then the next least senior qualified person and so on. C. In the engineering department, “tour coverage” overtime will be offered to qualified employees on a rotating basis by seniority from a volunteer list established for this purpose. Mini tours will be utilized during the week when necessary. D. In the Grounds Department, the Employer will make reasonable efforts to cross train employees to increase overtime eligibility. E. Within 60 days of the beginning of this MOU and then every November 1, the University shall ask for volunteers to operate snow plows. Qualified volunteers shall form a pool of snow plow operators. When snow plows need to be operated such work shall first be offered to motor vehicle operators followed by employees of the automotive shop. When automotive shop employees are unable to keep up with plowing operations the snow plow list shall be utilized. Unless prohibited by operational needs (ex. Mechanics needed to perform mechanical work), the University shall offer overtime in order of seniority to the snow plow operators pool. Reasonable effort will be made to keep snow plow operators pool overtime opportunities equal. F. The snow plow operator’s pool overtime list will be kept separate from the employees’ normal job classification/department overtime list. G. On the date when overtime is offered, employees on approved leave, military leave, layoff, long-term illness, suspension, or otherwise unavailable or absent during their normal working hours shall not be eligible for overtime opportunities and shall be treated the same as employees who have refused overtime work.
