Common use of Types of Schedules Clause in Contracts

Types of Schedules. A. The Standard Workweek For all Agencies, the basic workweek shall consist of five consecutive eight-hour work days, Monday through Friday (with the same starting and finishing time each day) except for those employees with rescheduling authority as agreed upon by the NCFLL and Management, first 40-hour tour of duty, a compressed work schedule or flexi-time. Part-time Economic Assistants in BLS may be scheduled for up to five days of work in any calendar week. Daily hours may be scheduled by the supervisor. The function of these exceptions is to enhance the ability of the Agencies to carry out their missions and to address employee needs. B. Variable Week Variable Week is a flexible schedule containing core time on each workday in the biweekly pay period in which a full-time employee has a basic work requirement of 80 hours for the biweekly pay period. An employee may vary the number of hours worked on a given workday or the number of hours each week, within the limits established for the organization. Credit hours are applicable to this schedule. C. MSHA First 40-Hour Tour of Duty The basic workweek for first 40-hour tour of duty for MSHA Authorized Representatives and Right of Entry employees shall be the first 40-hours worked within a period of five consecutive days in the Sunday through Saturday administrative workweek, beginning as early as Sunday, but no later than Tuesday unless requested by the employee and approved by management. In accordance with 5 CFR 610.111(b), a first 40-hour tour of duty is the basic workweek without the requirement for specific days and hours within the administrative workweek. An employee may vary the number of hours worked on a given workday within the week. This scheduling may be subject to the mission needs of the Agency and will be consistent with applicable laws and regulations. An exception to the above may be made for professional technical staff in district offices that elect to work a different schedule. Such election is subject to Management approval, Agency mission, and must be in accordance with applicable law, regulation, and consistent with other provisions of this Agreement. D. Compressed Schedule Compressed Schedule is a fixed, non-flexible schedule constituting an 80-hour bi-weekly basic work requirement which is scheduled for less than ten workdays. The Compressed Schedules used most often are the 5-4/9 and the four-day week. In the 5-4/9, full-time employees work eight daily 9 1/2-hour fixed tours of duty days and one 8 1/2-hour day fixed tour of duty in a pay period. In the four- day week, full-time employees work four daily 10 1/2-hour fixed tours of duty each week. Since a compressed schedule, like a standard workweek, is a fixed schedule, the concepts of flexible time bands, core time, and credit hours do not apply to a compressed schedule. Overtime hours in a Compressed Schedule are any hours of work, approved in advance, in excess of those specified hours which constitute the Compressed Schedule.
