Those with the highest seniority will bid first among their job classification within the Patrol Division. Seniority will be based on hire date to, or promotion date of, your job classification. Positions include Patrol Officer and Patrol Sergeant. Shifts will be bid for an entire calendar year with markup changes on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1. Each Employee will be allotted a maximum of two (2) work days after notification to complete his/her bidding.
2. Shift selection shall be assigned through the seniority bidding process for all Guild members, excluding probationary officers. The Chief of Police shall have exclusive discretion to assign probationary officers to shifts based upon a need to further training, to evaluate and to meet departmental needs. Probationary assignments shall be made without altering non-probationary officer(s) shift bids if at all possible. In the event non- probationary officer(s) bid upon shifts are changed, the shift re-bid process defined in Article 8 (D) shall apply. Upon completion of probation, an officer will then be included in the seniority bidding process based upon their original date of hire. (prior MOU draft)

The Chief of Police retains the exclusive right to determine the starting time of the work shifts and the number of shifts in a work day; provided that in the event that an Employee’s routine shift starting time is changed by more than two (2) hours and/or the Employee’s routine work days are changed after the bidding process, the Department must provide notice of the shift changes in accordance with Article 8 (F) and must allow for the opportunity of a shift rebid process.
4. This section shall be interpreted as a waiver of the Guild’s right to bargain changes in the starting times of work shifts in accordance with its terms, but shall not be considered a waiver of the Guild’s right to require the Employer to bargain over changes in the length of the work shifts, for example, five 8’s, four 10’s, 10:40’s, 11:25’s, 12’s, etc.
