Conference Attendance The Federation will be entitled to five (5) person days per year release time for designated Federation representatives to attend conferences. All conference expenses will be the responsibility of the Federation, unless funding is requested and approved through regular District processes for conference attendance.
Attendance Policy Existing policy requires that an employee notify management in advance of the scheduled shift start when said employee is absent from work. This policy also requires an employee to notify management in advance of the scheduled start of the work shift when this employee will be late in reporting to work. Generally, these provisions are most relevant to unscheduled absences. There are two situations which occur relative to tardiness. The first, involves an employee who has not called in before the start of the work shift as is required by existing policy. The second applies to an employee who calls in before the start of his or her work shift:
Section 1. Employee Fails to Call in Before Start of Work Shift: An employee who is tardy and has not called in before the start of his or her scheduled work shift will be considered to be in an unauthorized leave status. The first occurrence of this type tardiness will result in the employee receiving a verbal reprimand and being docked pay as below. A second occurrence within a twelve (12) month period will result in the employee not being permitted to go to work thereby forfeiting eight hours pay, and also, it will result in the employee receiving a written reprimand from the Supervisor. A third occurrence within a twelve (12) month period will result in an automatic three- day suspension without pay. A fourth occurrence within the twelve (12) month period will result in the scheduling of a pre-disciplinary conference with the employee being recommended for dismissal from service with the City of Xxxxxxxx.
Section 2. Employee Calls in Before Start of Work Shift as required When an employee is tardy and has notified management in advance of the start of the scheduled work shift, a different set of circumstances will initially occur. The first occurrence of such tardiness will be considered to be an excused absence; however, the employee will be docked an appropriate amount of pay in accordance with the length of time he or she is tardy. If the crew is still at the garage, the employee will be docked for lost time in increments as follows: Period Late Time Docked 16 - 30 minutes ½ hour 30 - 60 minutes 1 hour In the event the crew has left for the job site and the employee must be transported by a Supervisor to the site, the employee’s time for pay purposes will be started when he or she reaches the job site. Again, the amount of pay which will be docked will be figured in time increments as above. In the event an employee has a second occurrence of tardiness within a thirty-day period, even though he or she has called in, the employee will receive a verbal reprimand from the Supervisor. Appropriate loss of time policy will be in effect as described above. In the event an employee has a third occurrence of tardiness in this manner within a ninety-day period, the employee will be issued a written reprimand concerning the violation of Departmental attendance policies. In the event the employee has a fourth occurrence of tardiness within a six-month period, the employee will be considered for disciplinary action involving a minimum three-day suspension without pay. In this particular situation, such disciplinary action will be meted out after a pre-disciplinary conference is scheduled by management. If additional tardiness occurs within a one (1) year period, the employee will again be subject to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal from employment with the City. Such disciplinary action will be meted out after a pre-disciplinary conference is scheduled.
Section 3. An employee will not be disciplined under Section 2 of this Policy if the employee has six (6) or fewer unscheduled absences for any time off, including, but not limited to, vacation, sick leave, compensatory leave, holiday leave, and funeral leave within a
Section 4. Excessive absenteeism or tardiness results in disruption to the scheduled activities, an excessive waste of supervisor and management time in transporting employees to job sites, and further results in a hardship on other employees who are available for work at the start of their work shift as required.
Attendance at Meetings Any employee required to attend Occupational Health and Safety Committee and/or Board of Management meetings in the capacity of employee representative shall, if such meetings are held outside the ordinary hours of work, be entitled to receive ordinary pay per hour for the actual time spent in attendance at such meetings. In lieu of receiving payment, employees may, with the agreement of the employer, be permitted to be free from duty for a period of time equivalent to the period spent in attendance at such meetings. Such time spent shall not be viewed as overtime for the purposes of this Agreement.
Training Committee The parties to this Agreement may form a Training Committee. The Training Committee will be constituted by equal numbers of Employer nominees and ETU employee representatives and have a charter which clearly states its role and responsibilities. It shall monitor the clauses of this Agreement which relate to training and ensure all employees have equal access to training.
