Before schedules are drawn up, a Nurse requiring specific days off shall submit in writing a request for such days off. The Nurse’s preference shall be granted wherever possible. (b) However, the Employer shall post the schedule for the period of July 1st to August 31st by June 1st of each year and for the period of December 15th to January 2nd by November 15th of each year. (c) A Nurse may request specific days off or to exchange days off with another Nurse. The Employer may require the request to be in writing. Consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by the Employer provided that the Nurse has given reasonable notice of the change requested, it is operationally feasible and there is no financial cost to the Employer. (d) Where a Nurse is required to work rotating shifts, days, evenings, and night duty will be assigned to Nurses as equitably as possible. This does not preclude Nurses from being continuously assigned to an evening, night, or weekend shift at their request where such continuing assignment is acceptable to the Employer. Any such arrangement can be cancelled with a minimum of six (6) weeks notice by either the Employer or the Nurse.
