Holiday and Overtime Work Clause Samples

Holiday and Overtime Work. Each January, management will establish a list by seniority and class of those workers who indicate in writing they wish to be offered overtime or holiday work, or both. New employees may add their names to these lists at time of appointment. Anyone removing his/her name from the list may not replace it until the next sign-up. 1. Overtime will be offered first to the worker performing that activity during the preceding shift, where applicable. All possible advance notice of overtime assignments will be given. 2. If the worker declines or if #1 above does not apply, overtime and holiday work shall be offered rotationally in seniority order to qualified workers. If no one volunteers and the only alternative would be contracting outside labor, the least senior available worker at the location affected will be required to work. Union and Management agree that this clause does not prohibit VTA from contracting out. 3. The Union recognizes and accepts that in emergency situations it may not be possible to follow the above procedure for overtime assignment. 4.

Workers in Marketing and Customer Services are required to work holidays according to regularly scheduled work days. 5.
