Common use of Assignments and Relief Clause in Contracts

Assignments and Relief. EVS staff will be trained and oriented to their home area assignment and any area they are expected to work and float. EVS staff, who are floated may raise a concern about the new area of floating and management will ensure the staff member is properly oriented before they are deployed. EVS staff with a home area assignment (including “bedmakers”, and “utility” roles) may be required to float to other areas for patient care needs and these assigned staff would not be eligible for flex premium pay. Once the assigned schedules by campus have been implemented, the EVS Safety Subcommittee may evaluate the staffing levels and gaps/shortages and make a recommendation on the number of flex staff to utilize, as well as the order in which staff are moved around to cover gaps. Campus based flex positions will not have a home area assignment, their assignment is determined each day to cover discharges, stat clean and other work as needed to ensure that EVS techs with home area assignments can stay in their assignment for their shift. Incumbents must have completed the certification program to be eligible, or complete it within 90 days of hire, transfer or assignment. Movement to the EVS Tech-with certification premium will be triggered once the training program is complete and the certification exam has been passed. Campus based flex roles are employees that are unassigned and have agreed to flex and work anywhere on their campus as determined necessary by management, and who have relevant skills and experience to the EVS areas they are floating among. Opportunities will be posted per Article 7.2.2 and employees in this role will receive a one dollar ($1.00) per hour premium for all hours worked. This premium will be included as part of their regular rate of pay and is in addition to certification pay. EVS managers will determine the number of Campus based flex positions for their unit, if any. This will be reviewed at the EVS Safety committee.
