AVAILABILITY FOR SCHEDULED WORK Clause Samples
The "Availability for Scheduled Work" clause defines the obligation of a party, typically an employee or contractor, to be present and ready to perform work during agreed-upon times. This clause usually specifies the required working hours, days, or shifts, and may address procedures for notifying the other party in case of absence or unavailability. Its core function is to ensure that work commitments are met reliably, minimizing disruptions and providing clarity about attendance expectations.
AVAILABILITY FOR SCHEDULED WORK. Employees must be available for all work scheduled, regular or overtime. An employee who did not receive notice of overtime on his or her previous shift worked shall not be compelled to work overtime on that particular day (except for those employees on vacation or approved leave of absence). Employees who have a valid reason may be excused by management from working regular or overtime work at any particular time.

A. Except for plant security, continuous shift operations, emergency, or maintenance, the COMPANY will not require production employees to work in excess of 10 hours per day on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 8 hours on Friday, and/or in excess of 8 hours on Saturday, provided, however, that no employee will be compelled to work more than two consecutive Saturdays, except for the five months defined below. In those five (5) months, employees will be available for Saturday work when production schedules so require. A tentative schedule for these five (5) months will be given by December 15th. In the event any of these five (5) months need to be changed, a sixty (60) day notice will be given.
B. If overtime is required to meet the shipment requirements and sufficient volunteers will not stay, the COMPANY can require overtime starting with the least senior person who is qualified and working up in seniority until the required number of people is reached. Overtime preference is determined by seniority within classification and department. Employees who have a valid reason shall be excused by the COMPANY from working regular or overtime work at any particular time.
C. When employees are required for overtime work outside their regular classification, such overtime will be offered to senior qualified employees in the department involved. Should qualified employees not be available in the department, then insofar as possible, senior qualified employees in the plant will be utilized in the assignment of such overtime.
