Excused Work Days—- Paid and Non-Paid. 5. Reserve-time. Within each work group, or other vacation selection group, and in seniority order within the group, individual employees shall be given the opportunity to designate specific dates, if known, upon which they desire to observe the time off to which they are entitled. Individuals need not designate every day to which they are entitled at this time. Subsequent requests will be considered on the basis of the earliest request to the employee’s immediate supervisor or other designated management person. The Company will attempt to accommodate such requests, subject to the needs of the business and force requirements of the work group. A10.034 The selection procedure, known as the second priority selection, described in A10.033, will also include selection of “reserve-time”. Reserve-time is a block of work days equal to the number of individual time off days to which an employee is entitled but which are not designated by the employee during the second priority selection. This block of days must be selected and scheduled at the same time an employee is given the opportunity to designate individual days off. Reserve-time shall be scheduled consistent with force requirements and the needs of the business, but in any case, not later than April 30 of the succeeding calendar year. Any time off not taken by an employee prior to the scheduled reserve-time must be taken during the scheduled reserve-time selected by that employee.
