WORK SCHEDULES AND TIME REQUESTS Sample Clauses

The "Work Schedules and Time Requests" clause defines the rules and procedures for establishing employee work hours and handling requests for time off or schedule changes. Typically, it outlines how work schedules are communicated, the process for submitting requests for vacation, personal days, or shift swaps, and any advance notice requirements.
