Exchange of Shift. Nurses who, for their own personal convenience, wish to exchange shifts after the schedule is posted with other appropriately qualified Nurses, shall submit a written request form to the Director of Nursing or designate for approval that includes the signature of at least one of the nurses directly involved confirming the agreement. The Director of Nursing or designate shall make the appropriate change on the time schedule. The Director of Nursing or designate approval shall not be unreasonably denied. The Employer shall not be responsible for overtime claims or other premium rates that might otherwise apply as a result of the exchange of shifts. Where shift exchanges are required to accommodate the needs of a nurse with less than twenty-four (24) hours’ notice, such written request shall not be required; however, the nurse accepting the shift shall contact the Director of Nursing or designate in advance to confirm acceptance.
