Shift Bids Clause Samples

Shift Bids. 9-6.01 Work schedules will be bid in seniority order within position and status. Employees must be Qualified for the work associated with a roster line in order to be eligible to bid on that line.

Shift Bids. Employees in the classification of Police Officer and Police Sergeant shall be entitled to select the shift. However, it remains the sole discretion of the department to determine through the master schedule of available shifts, which days off are associated with any particular shift. Shift selection shall be made based upon seniority in the employee’s current classification (including any time served in a higher or lower paying classification). The only exceptions to this entitlement are under the following conditions: (a) To accommodate a formal PIP. (b) To facilitate the separation of two employees who have a formal, documented hostile work environment and/or sexual harassment incident. (c) To facilitate the separation of two employees who have a formal, documented adverse situation which has impacted the effectiveness of the shift to which they are assigned. Movement of individuals under the above circumstances shall only be done after all other reasonable efforts have been considered. If a non-probationary Police Officer or Police Sergeant is displaced from his selected shift (after the shift bid has been finalized) by an officer being moved under one of the above circumstances, that displaced officer or sergeant shall be entitled to a 5% bonus of their current base salary for the period of the displacement. Under this article, the placement of officers or sergeants for the purposes of balancing experience throughout the shift, equal distribution of FTOs or other officers assigned collateral duties such as CSI, DUI, DRE, or to assign premium shifts as inducements or rewards to less senior officers, are specifically excluded. Any dispute regarding the necessity of movement of officers or the accuracy of the asserted need shall be resolved by the City’s Human Resources Director. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article: (1) Probationary Police Officers may be assigned to specific shifts for training purposes which will be accomplished by blocking out the last slot on the particular shift needed and before shifts are bid, and (2) A maximum of two probationary police sergeants may be assigned to specific shifts for training purposes, which will be accomplished by blocking out the appropriate slot on the particular shift needed before the shifts are bid. Each slot will be on a different shift. There will be no bumping mid-cycle. The Department will have the right to closely or exactly match probationary sergeants’ days off to that of the lieute...

Shift Bids a. Shift bids will be based upon overall seniority within the employee’s current department. b. Upon a promotion or voluntary transfer of an employee from one station to another, or into a different assignment within their department, the employee will retain their overall seniority. c. In the case of a demotion or involuntary transfer, the employee’s seniority status will not be affected. d. Shift bids shall take place twice annually (first week of March and first week of October). In the event the Department Head and the Association mutually agree, the parties may determine that an alternate bidding schedule be implemented for a specific purpose and time. The shift schedule shall be provided not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the shift bid date. Once posted, there shall be no changes made to the schedule without consulting the Association. The provisions of this section do not apply to emergency situations.

Shift Bids. 1. All employees covered by this Agreement have an assigned Bid Area. Within the Bid Area, all employees work an awarded shift with scheduled days off. In some Stations, generally the larger ones, certain Bid Areas may consist of several different Work Areas (i.e.: Zone1, Zone2, Wide Body Crew, Hangar, GSE Line, GSE Hangar, Facilities, Terminal, Test Cell, Stalls, WC324, etc.). In these instances all employees will have the option to bid, by seniority, into different work areas within the same Bid Area during each local Shift Bid. Except relief shifts, each employee shall have the same starting time on each of his regularly scheduled workdays. Employees transferring into a Bid Area will select a “Shift and Days Off pattern” from those available by Craft Seniority. (See, LOA #20 – Shift Bids for Smaller Groups.) 2. At least twice a year (i.e., on a semi-annual basis, generally near the spring and fall time changes) each Bid Area will have a “Rebid for shift and days off.” In no event will such rebids be separated by more than nine (9) months unless all employees in the Bid Area agree to waive such rebid. The Company will confer with the Local Union at each Station regarding shift/day off patterns in each Bid Area/Work Area prior to posting the shift bid. 3. Shift bids will be posted by the Company at least thirty (30) days before bidding starts. Results of the shift bid will be posted by the Company at least seven (7) days before its effective date. To minimize disruption of work schedules, the effective date of a shift bid will be the first day of a pay period. 4. When a new or vacant shift becomes available, the senior interested employee(s) in the Bid Area will be given the opportunity to fill the new or vacant shift(s). The remaining shift(s) may be filled by the new or transferring employee. The Company may temporarily fill the position prior to the completion of the bid process. (See LOA #22 – Trickle Down Shift Bid Awards.) 5. An employee on an occupational injury or sick leave who wants to participate in a shift bid must provide a physician’s statement verifying a return to work date that is within sixty (60) days of the effective date of the shift bid. Employees on other forms of leave similarly may bid pro- vided they have a scheduled return date within sixty (60) days of the effective date of the shift bid. Employees who do not return within sixty (60) days of the bid’s effective date will have their bids canceled and upon return will be subject ...

Specialized functions include all Ticketing and related support functions (e.g. Concierge Ticketing, Cashiers, Accounting, Ticketing Administration positions), Contracts, Stocking, STOC Connections, and associated relief for all functions mentioned above. Such employees will only be permitted to bid outside of these functions once a full year has elapsed since the start date of their awarded work schedule. However, they will be permitted to bid different shift patterns/bid lines within the same specialized function throughout the year, including any bid line vacancies filled through Article 6.15. 6.12.06.01 The Company shall make every reasonable effort to equitably distribute the assignment of the lobby task/duties amongst the employees assigned to work that function. 6.12.07 In Call Centres, when bidding work schedules for specialized functions, the bid will be open to employees currently working in these functions. An employee requesting to leave a specialized function must provide the Company with a minimum of thirty (30) days written notice prior to the next work schedule bid. NOTE 1: In locations where all employees are equally qualified for all functions within that location, all work schedules will be considered vacant at the time of the work schedule bid. NOTE 2: The above does not prevent the Company and the Union at the District Level from agreeing on a different process to move into and from a specialized function.
