Exceptional Performance Award Program Sample Clauses
The Exceptional Performance Award Program clause establishes a framework for recognizing and rewarding employees who exceed standard performance expectations. Typically, this clause outlines the criteria for eligibility, the types of awards available (such as bonuses or special recognition), and the process for nominating and selecting recipients. By formalizing the process for acknowledging outstanding contributions, the clause incentivizes high performance and helps foster a culture of excellence within the organization.
Exceptional Performance Award Program. The Agency shall continue to make the Exceptional Performance Award Program available to bargaining unit nurses in the same manner it is made available to other staff. Exceptional performance shall be determined by measuring a nurse’s performance against his/her job description and unit-specific job requirements. A nurse qualifying for an exceptional performance award, based on the results of the annual assessment and completion of the goal(s) addressed on the assessment, shall receive in the fall an award amount equivalent to 0.5% of the nurse’s total wages in the prior fiscal year.
1. Where core staffing is one (1) through four (4) nurses, a minimum of one
(1) nurse shall be granted time off.
2. Where core staffing is five (5) through eleven (11) nurses, a minimum of two (2) nurses shall be granted time off.
3. Where core staffing is twelve (12) through nineteen (19) nurses, a minimum of three (3) nurses shall be granted time off.
4. Where core staffing is twenty (20) through twenty-nine (29) nurses, a minimum of four (4) nurses shall be granted time off.
5. Where core staffing is thirty (30) nurses or more, a minimum of five (5) nurses shall be granted time off. Open or unscheduled positions shall not be considered in the determination of a program’s core staffing base for purposes of these minimums. Current practice shall continue for granting scheduled time off for CQI coordinators, intake coordinators and patient care coordinators. Scheduled time off due to absences under FMLA/OFLA shall not be included in the minimums set forth above. A maximum of one nurse with scheduled time off due to worker’s compensation, however, may be included. When requests for time off are received after the schedule has been posted for the work cycle that includes the requested period of time off, the Agency may consider absences under FMLA/OFLA as well as educational requests in determining whether or not to approve the time off request. From July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2012, the Agency will not be required to grant time off to more than a minimum of three (3) nurses even if core staffing exceeds twenty (20) nurses as specified in paragraph 4 above.
