Common use of TIME-TRADING Clause in Contracts

TIME-TRADING. ‌ 41.1 Time-trading will be permitted only in the event that requested time off has been denied. All time trading arrangements must be negotiated by the time-trading individuals and, except in cases of emergency, they must give the supervisor at least forty-eight (48) hours' advance notice in writing, or electronically submitted. The trade must be acceptable to the appropriate supervisor whose shift is affected. Approval will be based on ability to hold the position to be filled, and the number of consecutive hours to be worked prior to and following the trade. Such a request for a trade shall not be unreasonably denied. The employee negotiating the trade will be responsible for obtaining the approval of all those involved. 41.2 Approved trades will be made on the basis of comparable skill levels. Parties agreeing to work a trade must at least be able to perform the same skills that the other person is certified to perform at the time they work for the other person, unless approval is received to trade within 7 days with an employee with lesser training. However, Communications Specialists may trade regardless of skill as long as operational needs are met. The ability to perform AIC Supervisory work will not be considered a skill necessary to qualify for time trade. Salary level will not be a factor. City payroll will not be affected by the process (i.e., a Communications or Records Specialist, Step 6, working for a Communications or Records Specialist, Step 1, will earn their normal monthly salary). 41.3 If, for any reason, the person working for the original employee does not show up as approved on the time trade, the original employee will be charged for the absence at a rate consistent with what the City paid to back fill through overtime, which is generally 1:1.
