Common use of EXTRA DUTY / SUMMER BUS ROUTES Clause in Contracts

EXTRA DUTY / SUMMER BUS ROUTES. 1. There shall be two (2) lists of additional work. One (1) shall be “extra duty,” as defined below, and the other shall be “Summer Bus Routes.” 2. The Summer Bus Routes list shall be compiled prior to the last day of school and shall consist of all summer routes that are known to exist at that time. Summer routes shall be offered by seniority, starting with the most senior driver and going down the list. Drivers may take one (1) or more routes as long as the route times do not conflict with each other. Any summer routes that come in after the bidding of routes shall be offered by seniority, starting with the most senior driver and going down the list. A driver who accepts a route, but already has a route assigned that conflicts with the new route, shall give up the older route which then shall be offered by seniority, starting with the most senior driver and going down the list. This process shall continue until all of the “new” and “older” routes have been assigned. All drivers are eligible for any routes that come in after the original routes have been bid, whether or not they bid for a summer route originally. 3. “Extra duty” assignments shall be offered on a daily basis except in the following three cases: (a) when a driver or aide knows ahead of time that s/he will be off for more than one day in a row; (b) when a driver is needed for an entire week or more due to conflicting school schedules; and (c) when summer bus cleaning is needed for more than one day. Assignments falling within the three (3) identified categories will be offered by seniority from the top of the list going down until all of the assignments are filled. 4. “Extra duty” includes, but is not limited to, any extra work such as the cleaning of buses, office work such as copying and preparing mailers (but answering phones and dispatch work is not considered extra duty), transporting a bus for repair or for other reasons, midday substitutions, or for other reasons as determined by the administration. Mid-day substitutions shall be offered on a daily basis except when a regular driver knows that s/he shall be off work for more than one (1) day. Mid-day drivers whose assignments go into the summer due to the schedule of the run, shall have the option to keep the mid-day run through completion. If s/he chooses not to complete it because it runs into the summer, the run shall be offered as if it were a Summer Bus Route (see Paragraph 2 above). Non-summer bus washing and field trips are not considered “extra duty” assignments and are treated separately in Articles 19 and 22. 5. “Extra duty” assignments will be filled as soon as possible after the determination is made that “extra duty” work is needed. 6. Best efforts will be made to offer the “extra duty” assignments in the order that they are received by the Transportation Department. 7. If a driver/aide’s “extra duty” assignment is canceled in full, that person will be offered the next “extra duty” assignment that is not yet assigned. If s/he declines that “extra duty” assignment, that person goes back into the seniority rotation. 8. If a driver/aide declines an “extra duty” assignment, he/she will stay on the seniority rotation for “extra duty” assignments, unless he/she notifies the Transportation Supervisor in writing that he/she does not want to be considered for “extra duty” assignments. If a driver would like to again be considered for “extra duty” assignments, he/she must notify the Transportation Supervisor in writing of this request. 9. To the extent the Board employs a bus driver in an On Board Instructor (“OBI”) capacity, the driver will be paid at his/her regular hourly rate.
