Compressed Work Schedules (CWS). 6.10.1 Compressed work schedule is a system whereby a full-time employee works 80 hours in a pay period in fewer than 10 workdays. The type of CWS that employees may work at NRC is a 5-4/9 or, under specified circumstances, an “expanded compressed work schedule.”
Compressed Work Schedules (CWS). A. Compressed work Schedules are fixed schedules that allow employees to complete the basic work requirement in fewer than ten days in a pay period. Arrival and departure times must be specified in advance and constant each biweek, but they need not be the same each day. Work must be completed during the hours of 5:30 a.m. and 11:59 p.m., Monday through Friday local time.
Compressed Work Schedules (CWS) a. Employees may elect to work under a 5-4/9 or 4-10 plan of CWS. Under the 5-4/9 plan, employees are scheduled to work nine (9) hours per day for eight (8) days and eight (8) hours for one (1) day (excluding the lunch period), with one (1) regular business day off every pay period. Under the 4/10 plan, employees are scheduled to work ten (10) hours per day, four (4) days per week with one (1) regular business day off each week.
Compressed Work Schedules (CWS). Fixed work schedules in which an employee’s basic work requirement of 80 hours in a biweekly pay period is scheduled in less than 10 workdays. There are two CWS schedules available. Rules governing CWS are contained within Article 26 Section 5b of the CBA. Employees on a CWS may work overtime, when approved, on their Regular Day Off (RDO). Employees on a CWS are not eligible to glide. See Appendix D for CWS arrival and departure times. See Appendix E for CWS cycle information. • 5/4 – 9 Plan - A fixed schedule in which a full-time employee must work eight 9- hour days and one 8-hour day for a total of 80 hours in a biweekly pay period. The 8-hour day will be pay day for all employees unless payday is their RDO, in which case, the 8-hour day with be the preceding day. • 4-day work week - A fixed schedule in which a full-time employee must work 10 hours per day for 4 days in a workweek for a total of 40 hours per week, and 80 hours per biweekly pay period.
Compressed Work Schedules (CWS). Compressed Work Schedules, a variation of Flexi- Time, are schedules that provide flexibility in the number of days an employee is scheduled to work each week. CWS is subject to the same rules and conditions as FlexiTime. A non-exempt employee’s work schedule may be compressed into nine days over a two-week period by working a sufficient number of additional hours each day to complete a 40-hour workweek the first week, and a thirty-five-hour workweek the second week. Exempt employees, while not held to specific hour requirements, may modify their schedules in a similar manner. Time taken for lunch will be in addition to the regular workweek requirement. Exempt employees will continue to be expected to work the number of hours it takes to get the job done regardless of whether they are on a regular or flexible schedule. All employees who participate in CWS will be expected to be present during the designated core hours Monday through Thursday. A lunch period of not less than thirty minutes, up to one hour, also should be scheduled during core hours. As noted above, time scheduled for lunch will be in addition to the CWS work requirement for each week. To simplify the scheduling of compressed workweeks and assure that all staff are present at least four full days a week, Friday is designated as the official CWS day off for all employees participating in CWS. Any exceptions require the approval of the President or Inspector General, or their respective designee. Office directors are responsible for approving the participation of employees in CWS, as appropriate, and will be held accountable for assuring and maintaining full coverage for their respective offices. CWS decisions are not subject to grievance. Two compressed work schedules, Schedule A and Schedule B, providing for alternate Fridays off, will be utilized to assist supervisors in staggering the CWS day off and assuring appropriate coverage of their respective offices. Before beginning to work a compressed work schedule, the employee and supervisor must complete the CWS Agreement (See eWeb – Resources/Forms/OHR Forms/LSC Compressed Work Schedule (CWS) Agreement) and submit it to the Director of HR for approval. In determining the appropriateness of CWS for each employee, the supervisor must consider the responsibilities of each position; the specific employee’s desire to work a compressed work schedule; as well as the needs of the office and the ability of the employee to maintain the longer hours of...
