(e) if the employee’s contract of employment specifies a requirement to work during one or more non-term weeks between identified term time, but does not specifically designate the particular weeks and/or days required to be worked during such non- term weeks, the employer and the employee shall agree as early as practicable in a school calendar year on the weeks and/or days to be worked. Failing agreement, the employee shall be given at least four term weeks notice of the weeks and/or days required to be worked prior to the commencement of the particular non-term weeks. Provided that any such requirement that the employee work shall not be unreasonable given the employee’s personal circumstances and the notice given. The employee may be required to work during the ordinary hours and days which the person normally works, provided that the employee may agree to work on different days or for different hours or with a lesser period of notice. The employee may not be required to work during a non-term period between particular terms unless the contract of employment specifies the relevant terms. (f) An employer may elect to pay an employee only for the time worked (and therefore not during non-term weeks) or by equal salary instalments throughout the year as provided by sub-clause 13.2. (g) Where a person employed as at the date of making this Agreement is not employed on a contract which allows for leave without pay during non-term weeks that employee will not be required to take such leave or have their contract of employment changed merely as a result of this Agreement coming into operation. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause does not prohibit the re-negotiation of existing arrangements to allow for such leave.
