Common use of Assignment of Field Trips Clause in Contracts

Assignment of Field Trips. The Transportation Supervisor shall maintain three rosters of all regular bus drivers requesting field trips, in order of seniority. a. One roster for trips held on Monday through Friday shall start from the first day of the school year and carry through to the last day of the school year. b. A second roster, which continues from year to year, shall be for Saturday, Sunday and holiday trips. This roster will start with the employee next up on the seniority list and when the rotation comes back around to that bus driver, hours will be equalized and the next trip will be given to the bus driver with the least amount of hours. New bus drivers shall be put on this second roster after successful completion of their trial basis period at the highest number of hours. In order to be eligible to be on the second roster, a bus driver must also be on the first roster above. c. A third roster shall be for field trips, which occur during the summer vacation break, the winter break, and the spring break. Bus drivers wishing to be on this roster must sign up on a sign-up sheet which will be available on the announcement table ten (10) days prior to each of the three (3) breaks. d. If a bus driver requests in writing to be off one roster, that bus driver will remain off all rosters for the remainder of the semester. All such written requests shall be in effect only for one (1) semester. e. The Transportation Office will make a good faith attempt to post field trips together with a list of field trip hours every two weeks and supplement as necessary with changes and additions at least twenty-four [24] hours in advance together with an updated roster of field trip hours for all drivers. The field trip selection will be every two weeks at the Support Service Building, unless an alternative place is also posted twenty- four [24] hours in advance. Field trip picks shall be completed in one meeting as follows: picks shall be made for the first week first, then hours will be adjusted among drivers and then field trip picks shall be completed for the second week. Each bus driver shall select a field trip based upon their having the lowest number of charged field trip hours, until all field trips are covered. Bus drivers must either be present or leave a written signed and dated notation of the field trip desired with the Transportation office at least one hour before the field trip selection time. If someone is not present and has not left a written notation, the Transportation Office shall not assign any field trip and the absent driver will be charged two hours of field trip time per field trip decline (“passed”). If a driver is on leave or is not eligible for a field trip, then no proxy can be used. However, the time of the field trip will not be charged to that driver under these circumstances. Drivers cannot claim leave time while involved with a field trip. Bus drivers who select a field trip which is then declined [“passed”] during this field trip selection time or who subsequently “pass” on the field trip will be charged the hours of that trip. For field trips which arise after this field trip selection time, bus drivers who “pass” on a field trip will not be charged the hours of that trip. If no bus driver accepts such a trip and a bus driver is offered a second time, if the bus driver “passes” on the field trip, the bus driver will be charged for the hours of that trip. An exception to the above provision is for field trips which arise after this field trip selection time and which are offered to a bus driver within twenty-four [24] hours of the time the trip is to occur. Under these circumstances, a bus driver who passes on a field trip shall not be charged the hours of that trip. Individual bus drivers will be responsible for equalization of their hours worked as reflected in the majority vote of bus drivers held on 3/22/99. As soon as possible after completing a field trip, a bus driver will place a completed field trip slip in the appropriate basket in the Transportation Office. The Transportation Office will compute field trip hours and will record them. Bus drivers will be able to review their field trip hours upon request. For those trips for which bus drivers have not completed/submitted a field trip slip, the Transportation Office will use an estimate of the amount of the time for such a trip, [for purposes of picking trips only] which will be entered into the records and which will be used for field trip purposes until the slip is completed and submitted. f. In the event a bus driver refuses a field trip assignment or is otherwise unavailable for the assignment, including being on sick leave or an unpaid leave, they will be charged the hours as if they had taken the trip, provided that a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours prior notice of the field trip was given to the bus driver. If a driver selects a trip at the field trip selection meeting and subsequent to that meeting turns back that trip (does not want to take that trip by driver choice that the driver previously bid for) and if this occurs more than three times in a trimester, the driver shall be taken off the roster and shall be ineligible for trips for the remainder of the trimester. Field trip assignments with less than twenty-four (24) hours notice may be refused by the eligible bus driver and no hours will be charged to that bus driver. g. The Transportation Supervisor or his/her designee has the right to direct a bus driver to return from a field trip to complete the bus driver’s regular run, if there are not a sufficient number of bus drivers to complete regular runs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Transportation Supervisor and his/her designee shall have the ultimate right to assign field trips. Bus drivers will stay with their bus at all times on a field trip, unless released by the Transportation Supervisor, the Administrative Assistant for Transportation or by the individual in charge of the field trip at the field trip site. For meals, bus drivers may be released by the individual in charge of the field trip to leave the field trip site. However, for out-of-district field trips, the bus driver may travel for meals no greater than five (5) miles from the field trip site, and shall leave a number of a cell phone where they can be reached in case of an emergency. A bus driver must stay with the bus at the site if not released
