Workload Models Sample Clauses
The Workload Models clause defines the methods and criteria for measuring, forecasting, and managing the volume or type of work to be performed under an agreement. Typically, it outlines how workloads are quantified—such as by transaction counts, user numbers, or processing hours—and may specify baseline volumes, thresholds for additional charges, or procedures for adjusting service levels if workloads change. This clause ensures both parties have a clear understanding of expected workloads, helping to allocate resources appropriately and avoid disputes over service capacity or pricing adjustments.
Workload Models. An Assistant position may involve a combination of a number of different types of duties and activities, as set out in Article 12.01. In this Article examples are provided with respect to the workload envisaged for an Assistant carrying out laboratory, tutorial and/or marking duties. These examples are for illustrative purposes only and are intended to provide guidelines with respect to workload and in no way limits the University’s right to assign duties and hours of work under this Collective Agreement.
Workload Models. 36.4.1 Academic workload models will be developed by a school or equivalent work area through collaborative discussions/communication involving, as far as possible, its entire academic staff and will be determined prior to the commencement of each academic year.
36.4.2 School or equivalent work area academic workload models will be made available to all academic staff in a school and be in such a form that enables an academic employee to compare their workload with the model.
36.4.3 School or equivalent work area academic workload models will include the process for allocating workload consistent with the principles outlined at 36.2.
Workload Models. An Assistant position may involve a combination of a number of different types of duties and activities, as set out in Article 12.01. These duties normally fall into three basic classifications: A) laboratory sessions; B) tutorials; and, C) marking.
Workload Models. Workload models will be developed through consistent and normal Faculty processes, which may include Departmental and/or Faculty meetings to discuss changes to a Department or Faculty model. Each Faculty will have an academic workload model that sets out the specific weightings to be used to allocate teaching workloads for each of the applicable items listed in sub clause 4.3.3 under ‘teaching and related duties’.
Workload Models. An Assistant position may involve a combination of a number of different types of duties and activities, as set out in Article 12.01. These duties normally fall into three basic classifications: A) laboratory sessions; B) tutorials; and, C) marking. In Article 13.04 A, B, and C examples are provided with respect to the workload envisaged for an Assistant carrying out duties with respect to the laboratory, tutorial and marking classifications. These examples are for illustrative purposes only and are intended to provide guidelines with respect to workload for the laboratory, tutorial and marking classifications and in no way limits the University’s right to assign duties and hours of work under this Collective Agreement.
Workload Models. 34.4.1 The basis for calculation of the annualised academic workload is 36.25 hours per week multiplied 52.178571 weeks in a year. In any calendar year an academic staff member is entitled to the following leave to achieve work-life flexibility and to support the health and wellbeing of staff through taking a break from work: • Annual Leave: 25 days (180 hours) • Public Holidays: 10 days (72 hours) This results in a figure of 1638 hours per academic staff member per annum of academic staff availability to be managed thorough work allocation consistent with this clause.
34.4.2 The workload model will be aligned with the Work Unit’s strategic priorities and plans, and will take into account emerging global and national trends in higher education pedagogy, technology and alternative Teaching Delivery modes.
34.4.3 Each academic staff member will normally be covered by one academic workload model. This model may be determined at work unit level.
34.4.4 Fractional appointments across different work units and secondments may have different workload models applied to different fractions of their appointment.
34.4.5 The allocation of hours will represent a fair and accurate estimate of the average time that a relevant competent staff member should take to perform that work to a professional standard. The basis for the model will be available to staff.
34.4.6 The model will have effect from 1 January 2014 and shall be binding as if it were a term of this Agreement.
34.4.7 The model will be developed in consultation with the staff whose workload will be allocated by the model.
Workload Models. Each Faculty will have a broad academic workload model that will set the parameters for detailed departmental models. Workload models will be developed through consistent and normal Faculty processes, including Departmental and/or Faculty meetings to discuss changes to a Department or Faculty model. The ▇▇▇▇, who is responsible for the review and approval of the Faculty and Departmental workload models, will review, consider and respond to feedback from these meetings. The ▇▇▇▇ will ensure that workload models are consistent with this Clause. Level D and E Academic Staff must be available for University administrative work outside of their Department and Faculty. Their work in a leadership role will be recognised in Faculty and Department workload models. Duties and workloads must be consistent with the Minimum Standards for Academic Levels (MSALs). Academic workload may include, but is not limited to, teaching, educational development, research, teaching administration, leadership, community outreach, University service and administration. Maximum workload allocations are to be set within a nominal limit of 1575 working hours per year (45 weeks at 35 nominal hours per week) for full-time staff (based on the Staff Member accessing four weeks annual leave). Accordingly, a full-time Staff Member’s allocated workload must be able to be completed within a 35-hour week, averaged over a year. By mutual agreement, a Staff Member’s workload allocation may be averaged over a two-year period. Workload allocations, including research expectations, for part-time staff should reflect the appropriate employment fraction. Professional outreach is only to be included in the workload allocation when it is integral to University work, for example, clinical practice required to maintain professional registration. The normal pattern of academic workload is 40% teaching, 40% research and 20% community engagement and/or University service. The majority of continuing and fixed-term Staff will be engaged on the normal workload pattern. No Staff Member will be required to teach for more than 60% of their workload except for those Staff employed under sub clause 3.7.11(k) Teaching Focussed Appointment. No Staff Member will be required to have an administrative component of more than 20% of their workload unless they have an appointment to an academic administrative role. A Staff Member’s research expectation will be proportionate to the research component of their workload. No fixe...
