Assignment of Weights Sample Clauses

Assignment of Weights. If all key, in-scope members of a family responded to MEPS for their entire period of eligibility for Panel 8, Round 3 or for Panel 9, Round 1 and if the family had a key reference person, then that family received a family-level weight (WGTRU13>0). Reporting units consisting of an individual respondent who was both key and in-scope also received a family-level weight. These single person “family” units can be included or excluded from family-level analyses at the analyst’s discretion. Family-level weights were poststratified to figures obtained from the March 2004 CPS. The family-level poststratification reflects population distributions across family type (reference person married, spouse present; male reference person, no spouse present; female reference person, no spouse present), size of family, age of reference person, location of family (census region and MSA status), and race/ethnicity of the family’s reference person. Table 3.3 shows the number of families with family-level weights for each of the two panels separately, as well as the combined total and the total population estimate represented by the weighted total for all persons with person-level weights. Included as families in these counts are individuals living in one person RUs. There are 6,600 such families for Panel 8, Round 3 and 7,064 for Panel 9, Round 1. Thus, in total, there are 13,664 sample families in the file with positive family-level weights (WGTRU13>0). The population estimate of the number of these "family" units (families plus single person “family” units) with family-level weights containing at least one member of the U.S. civilian, non-institutionalized population is 124,832,233 based on summing the family level weights across all 13,664 MEPS families where WGTRU13 is positive. Table 3.3. Families with a family weight for the 2004 Point-in-Time file Panel 8 Panel 9 Combined Population estimate (weighted total of combined sample) Number 6,600 7,064 13,664 124,832,233 It should be noted that CPS and MEPS definitions of family units are slightly different. In particular, CPS does not include xxxxxx children in families or consider unmarried persons who live together as family units. Adjustments were made in the poststratification process to help compensate for some of these differences.

Assignment of Weights. The weight assigned to a logic tree branch should represent the likelihood of that branch being the true model. In most cases, however, weights will be assigned by the experts deriving the input data for the logic tree, based on their judgement of the likelihood of the competing models. Weights can also be derived from e.g. a Bayesian scheme as suggested by
Assignment of Weights. If all key in-scope members of a family responded to MEPS for their entire period of eligibility in 2001 Panel 5 Round 3, or for Panel 6 Round 1, and the family had a key reference person, then that family received a family level weight (WGTRU13>0). Reporting units consisting of an individual respondent who was both key and in-scope also received a family level weight. These individual person units can be included or excluded from family level analyses at the analyst’s discretion. Family level weights were poststratified to figures obtained from the March 2001 CPS.

The weighted estimate of the number of units (families plus individual person units) with family level weights containing at least one member of the U.S. civilian non-institutionalized population is 118,594,062 based on 13,393 families with WGTRU13>0. It should be noted that CPS and MEPS definitions of family units are slightly different.

  • Assignment of Overtime 3.4.1 Overtime shall be assigned on a rotating seniority basis among all qualified employees who are in the same classification, the same organizational unit, and at the same work location. An employee may decline an overtime assignment without adverse consequence unless it is assigned pursuant to Section 3.4.2 below. The department may define the group of qualified employees by their shift for purposes of assigning overtime so that call back pay is not obligated. In order to determine if an employee is qualified, the department should consider the employee’s work record in the department, including being in an unsatisfactory status on a current evaluation or having a formal discipline action in process. 3.4.2 If no employee in the classification, organization unit and work location accepts the overtime assignment, using the rotating seniority process, the District may assign the overtime in reverse rotating seniority order. 3.4.3 The following are allowable exceptions to the seniority overtime assignment process: When overtime is authorized for completion of a specific assignment, project, or work in progress, the employee who began the assignment, project, or work may be assigned the overtime; When the District determines it is necessary to consider special skills and training of employees to perform particular work; When employees are available to perform the work on a non-over-time basis, the District shall not be required to assign the work on an overtime basis. Overtime pay assignments will not be given to temporary employees unless the regular employees that would normally be assigned the overtime are not available or one of the seniority exceptions apply. 3.4.4 All overtime shall be offered to everyone on the applicable overtime list in descending order of seniority until the list is exhausted. Once the last name on the list is reached the process will resume from the top of the list. If an employee is offered overtime for a scheduled project and declines to accept, the employee forfeits his/her turn in the rotation. That employee will not be offered overtime until the list has been completed and his/her name comes up again in order of seniority. 3.4.5 Notice of scheduled overtime, for situations that are recurring or have advance notice, and which are offered on a rotational basis shall be posted in the same area as all required employment notices and announcements and will remain up until the work has been completed. Posting shall be on a form agreed to by the District and CSEA. Employee responses to the overtime posting shall be on a form agreed to by the District and CSEA. In lieu of posting, an organizational work unit may use electronic communications when all employees in such unit regularly use electronic communication. All such notices whether posted or sent by electronic communication will contain a description of the work to be done, the anticipated length of time to accomplish the work, the date(s) on which the work will be scheduled, and the date and time of posting. The notice shall be posted within a reasonable time of the District learning of the overtime work. Records will be maintained of all notices, employee responses, and overtime assignments for a period of three years.
