Unit Member Workload Sample Clauses

Unit Member Workload. All terms and conditions of employment impacting the workload of any certificated job class within the bargaining unit at the grade, department, program, school or district level, shall be maintained at not less than the highest minimum standards in effect on November 18, 2009. This Section shall not be interpreted or applied to deprive unit members of professional advantages heretofore enjoyed unless required by law or authorized by the provisions of this Section. 8.5.8.1. Section 8.5.8 does not prohibit the District from implementing programs, initiatives, or curricular reforms, and an intent of the section is to promote cooperative engagement in reform efforts and activities which will result in the improvement of the quality of the learning experience and the learning outcomes of students and in the quality of the working life of employees (see Section 24.1). However, the impact of any such District programs, initiatives, or curricular reforms on bargaining unit members’ workload, regardless of the existence or success of pre-decision collaboration, is subject to the provisions of Section 8.5.8. 8.5.8.2. Any disagreement between the parties regarding Section 8.5.8 shall be subject to discussion between the parties, for the purpose of making a mutual and good faith effort to resolve the dispute at an early stage. The Association shall make the District aware of its concerns within twenty (20) workdays of becoming aware of a decision it believes is or will be prohibited by Section 8.5.8. In the event that these discussions do not lead to resolution of the disagreement within twenty (20) workdays of the Association bringing the issue to the attention of the District, the matter shall be subject to the grievance procedure. In any grievance or arbitration claiming a violation of Section 8.5.8, the District may raise the defense that the impact on workload was de minimus and therefore not a violation of Section 8.5.8.
