Vacation Scheduling. (a) With the exception of authorized vacation carryover under Clause 18.6, the scheduling and completion of vacations shall be on a vacation year basis.
(b) The calendar year in which an employee's first anniversary falls shall be the first vacation year. For the purpose of additional leave entitlement, the calendar year in which the fifth anniversary falls shall be the fifth vacation year; in which the sixth anniversary falls shall be the sixth vacation year; etc.
(c) An employee earns but is not entitled to receive vacation leave during the first six (6) months of continuous employment.
Vacation Scheduling. Subject to operational requirements, scheduling of vacations shall be in accordance with seniority as per Article 10 within a department. Where an employee chooses to split their vacation, they shall exercise seniority rights in the choice of the first vacation period. Seniority shall prevail in the choice of the second vacation period, but only after all other first vacation periods have been selected. Seniority shall prevail in the choice of subsequent vacation periods in like manner. No employee shall be entitled to more than six (6) vacation periods, per vacation year unless mutually agreed.
Vacation Scheduling. A. Nurses may submit in writing to their supervisor their preferences for different segments of vacation for the period May 1 of the current year through the end of April of the next year. Nurses must submit their request by February 1 to allow sufficient time for the Employer to compile and post a vacation leave schedule by March 1. Nurses on this schedule shall have priority and will be granted vacation leave at the times specified, if possible. Vacation scheduling for nurses requesting segments will have priority over nurse requests for individual days off.
B. In the event that two (2) or more nurses request the same vacation period and the supervisor must limit the number of people who may take vacation leave at one time due to business needs and work requirements, preference shall be determined by seniority for up to three (3) segments of vacation, except as provided in Subsection D, below. A “segment” is five (5) or more contiguous days of vacation leave including holidays and days off.
C. In addition to vacation leave approved in Subsection B above, nurses may request vacation leave at any time on a first come, first served basis. Approval of supplemental requests shall take into consideration program demands, operational needs and the annual vacation leave schedule.
D. Annual vacation scheduling for the week in which the 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Day will be approved on a seniority basis if there are no conflicting requests. If there are conflicting requests, then the same vacation period will not be granted to the same nurse annually so that equitable access exists in obtaining vacation time. The week will begin at 12:01 a.m. on the Sunday preceding the holiday.
E. Nurses shall not request or be authorized to take scheduled vacation leave if they will not have sufficient vacation leave to cover such absence at the time requested vacation is to be taken.
F. Except as provided for in Subsection A above, the Employer will respond to vacation leave requests within ten (10) working days from the date of the request. If the request is not approved, the Employer will provide an explanation for the denial.

Vacation Scheduling. The Company reserves the right to schedule vacation periods and limit the number of employees on vacation at any one time in order to ensure the proper operation of the business. To ensure there is no conflict of work schedules, Employees must notify their immediate supervisor in writing well in advance as to when they want to take vacation time. Vacation requests received by January 1 of each year shall be scheduled on the basis of seniority within the classification, department and shift. If an Employee’s vacation request cannot be granted, he or she shall be advised of such, and shall be able to select an alternate vacation date. Following January 1 of each vacation year, all vacations will be scheduled on a first come-first served basis. Where more than one vacation request is received on the same day, vacation requests will be approved based on seniority within a classification, department and shift. The Company will schedule, at its sole discretion, all vacation time remaining outstanding as at June 1 for which an employee has not submitted a vacation request. Employees wishing to cancel a previously approved vacation request must do so at least five (5) business days prior to the commencement of such scheduled vacation. Except in extenuating circumstance, failure to provide such advance notice will result in the original schedule being maintained. Rescheduling of vacation will be on a first come first served basis. Any employee who, without a reasonable explanation and without notifying the appropriate Company officials in a timely manner, does not return to work after their vacation will be considered to have voluntarily terminated their employment. Vacation days must be taken as full days only. Unused vacation cannot be accumulated and carried into the next calendar year. An employee’s vacation entitlement, over and above the first two (2) weeks of vacation eligibility, must first be utilized prior to any personal leave of absence being requested. Should an alternate vacation year be implemented, the dates referenced in this Article shall be adjusted accordingly.

Vacation Scheduling. (a) Employees shall indicate their vacation preference, in writing, by April 15th of each year, and the Employer shall post the final vacation schedule by May 15th of each year. Choice of vacation period shall be based on seniority but shall be finally determined and approved by the Administrator or designate having due regard to the proper operation of the Home. Vacation requests made after the posting of the vacation schedule shall be determined on a first come first served basis, not on the basis of seniority.
(b) Vacation may be taken at any time during the vacation year, except between December 15th and January 15th.

(c) Employees may request pursuant to Article 13.08 to have the weekend off prior to or following their vacation. The employer will endeavour to schedule such request subject to the following:
i) Where the weekend off is granted and the employee was otherwise scheduled to work on those days, such extra days will be deemed to be vacation days;
ii) The employee must have such vacation entitlement available; and
iii) The weekend off being requested must be contiguous with (i.e. consecutive with) the employee’s original vacation.
(d) Requests for vacation shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(e) Full-time employees will be allowed up to five (5) single days or multiples thereof upon request. Vacation may be taken as earned in allotment of weeks (i.e. one week equals five (5) vacation days and at least two days off).

f) Notwithstanding e) above, in granting vacation requests during peak periods, the Employer will grant requests for full weeks of vacation prior to granting requests for partial weeks of vacation, so that a request for less than one week’s vacation cannot prevent another employee from taking a full week of vacation. A full week of vacation shall be defined as Monday through Sunday.
g) Requests for vacation for other periods outside of peak times shall be submitted by the employee to their immediate supervisor not less than three (3) weeks prior to the first day of the vacation period.

Vacation Scheduling. The vacation period will be the entire year. The staff member will, subject to the University’s operating requirements, have his/her choice of vacation time; it being recognized, however, that vacations must be scheduled by the University in manner designed to ensure the effective and efficient operation of the University, including staffing needs. No part of a staff member’s scheduled vacation may be charged to sick time. The University may restrict the amount of vacation time granted to a staff member during prime vacation periods to allow for equitable distribution of prime vacation time among staff members. The prime vacation periods will normally be June 1 through Labor Day, December 1 to January 15th. A staff member may carry a maximum of one (1) year of accrued vacation allowance forward into the next succeeding year. By September 1st of each year, a staff member’s department head/designee will advise the staff member of the number of vacation days remaining which must be used by the end of the calendar year or forfeited. Vacation requests for each “vacation year” of April through March 31 that involve the use of one (1) or more weeks of vacation, must be planned and requested by February 15th of each year. The staff member will submit three (3) choices of vacation time in order of priority. In situations in which choices of vacation are timely and two (2) or more staff members request the same time period, University seniority will prevail. A written response to the staff member’s request will be provided by March 15th. Failure to submit a vacation request by February 15th will result in loss of seniority status as it relates to vacation requests for the upcoming year. Any vacation requests submitted after February 15th, including those of less than (1) week, will be treated on a first come basis and not decided by seniority.
