Common use of Calculation of Load Clause in Contracts

Calculation of Load. For the purposes of contract load one (1) laboratory hour shall be converted to a lecture hour by using the factor .75. If a unit member’s load consists of all lecture hours, then the number of hours in excess of fifteen (15) shall be designated as overload hours. If a unit member’s load consists of a combination of lecture and laboratory hours and the number of lecture hours is equal to or greater than fifteen (15), then the lecture and laboratory hours in excess of fifteen (15) shall be added together and shall be designated as overload hours. To determine contract load and overload when a unit member’s schedule contains both lecture and laboratory hours and the number of lecture hours is less than fifteen (15) and therefore some of the laboratory hours must be used as load, the following formula will be used: (# lecture hours assigned) + [.75 x (# laboratory hours assigned)] = (load) If (load) is greater than 15 then:
