AVAILABILITY/ADDITIONAL ASSIGNMENTS LISTS Clause Samples
The AVAILABILITY/ADDITIONAL ASSIGNMENTS LISTS clause establishes procedures for tracking and communicating which employees are available for work and for assigning them to additional tasks as needed. Typically, this clause requires the employer to maintain up-to-date lists of employees who are willing or able to take on extra shifts or assignments, and may outline how employees can indicate their availability or how assignments are distributed. Its core function is to ensure efficient staffing and fair allocation of extra work, helping to address operational needs while providing transparency and opportunity for employees seeking additional assignments.
AVAILABILITY/ADDITIONAL ASSIGNMENTS LISTS. 1. An Availability/Additional Assignment Check-off Form will be made available to all regularly scheduled hourly school bus drivers prior to the beginning of the school year. The purpose for this form will be to allow drivers to sign up for the following list of work opportunities in addition to their regular assignment. Weekday - (Continuous rotation based on seniority) Weeknight - (Continuous rotation based on seniority) Weekend – (Continuous rotation based on seniority) Extra Assignments - The senior driver will receive the extra assignment as long as it does not interfere with his/her regular assignment. For this purpose, the seniority rotation will start from the top of the seniority each day.
2. Drivers assigned to Weekday Routes will not be eligible to participate on any additional assignment on those days on which their Weekday Route assignment conflicts with that assignment. When no regular bus driver bids on a field trip or is not available for the field trip, a substitute driver will be used. To be “available” the regular bus driver must be able to meet the departure and return times following his/her last scheduled school or the last student drop off. The trip is complete when the driver returns the bus to storage or arrives at the destination for his/her next driving assignment. However, drivers assigned to work midday routes may be eligible to participate on the Extra Assignment List provided that the drop-off and/or pick-up assignment does not contemplate overtime.
