SHIFT BID PROCESS. 13.01 The City agrees that the assignment of personnel to shifts in the Field Services Division will occur through a bidding process based on seniority. The City agrees that there will be no more than three (3) shift bids per calendar year and that no shift schedule will be longer than six (6) months. The first shift bid will occur on or before April 1st of each year. In the case of an emergency which results in an inability for the Field Services Division to provide sufficient community coverage, City management may bid for a new shift schedule. Management reserves the right to make immediate changes to the officer shifts pursuant to Article 2 of this Agreement if doing so is necessary to provide sufficient manpower to staff the existing shifts until a new shift can be bid. For efficiency, Management may bid an alternative schedule to be used in case of a staffing emergency concurrently with the shift bid on April 1st. If an alternative shift bid is implemented, it will remain in effect until the next regularly scheduled shift bid, unless Management and the Bargaining Unit agree to implement a new shift schedule or accelerate the time for the next shift bid. It is hereby agreed that if the City desires to change the manner in which Field Services Division employees are assigned to shifts, except in the case of a temporary emergency, the City shall give written notice of such changes to the Bargaining Unit prior to making any change or issuing any directive. The written notice shall occur in the form of the Staff Review process, through the chain of command, to allow employees to review the proposed changes and comment upon them before they are initiated. The reasons for the proposed changes, and the contemplated changes themselves, shall be stated in the written document presented for Staff Review.
