Common use of Emergency Field Trips Clause in Contracts

Emergency Field Trips. 1. After regular field trips are assigned, a list of emergency field trips is generated.

Response is due by 7:00 a.m. 2. The eligible drivers then sign the emergency field trip list stating their preference(s) for the trip(s). Drivers may bid on a regular and emergency field trip as long as the two trips do not conflict. 3. The trip(s) are awarded in the order of the emergency list, not seniority order. 4. Eligible drivers who do not state a preference by signing the emergency field trip list shall be passed on the appropriate rotation list as though they performed the assignment. 5. In the event that trips remain to be filled, three (3) verified radio calls will be made in seniority order to all eligible drivers. Drivers reached may choose to switch assignments, even if already assigned a trip, if the two trips are compatible. Drivers who cannot be reached shall be passed over in the appropriate rotation list as though they performed the assignment. Drivers absent from work on the day of the notification will not be contacted. For emergency field trips which occur during Winter and Spring Break one (1) documented telephone call will be made to the telephone number on record. 6. When an emergency field trip is posted, the successful bidder shall be guaranteed two (2) hours pay. The guarantee may be for two consecutive hours or split as a take and return with each portion as a one hour minimum for a total of two hours. 7. Estimated ending times will be posted when that information is available to Transportation, however, ending times are not guaranteed and pay will be for actual time worked or the 2-hour guarantee, whichever is greater. 8. When extra driver(s) are needed for weekend trips that are requested after 5:00 on Friday, drivers will be contacted in order of the emergency list. If a driver cannot be reached or cannot take the trip, they will remain on the emergency list and eligible for the next emergency trip posted. 9. Times are subject to change depending on customer demand. When bidding on a trip, driver is expected to complete the trip. If an awarded trip is canceled before the driver reports for the trip, the driver will be eligible to bid the next available posting in order of seniority.
