Common use of Hours Reduction Clause in Contracts

Hours Reduction. If a reduction in assigned hours of work is determined by the Employer to be necessary, the Employer will first ask for volunteers from the department or unit and shift where changes are needed. When involuntary reductions are needed, the Employer will reduce the hours of the least senior person in the department or unit and shift, subject to patient care needs, staffing considerations and hours of operation. An employee who is assigned to a .50 or more FTE status whose hours are involuntarily reduced more than .25 FTE shall have the following options: a. The employee shall, by seniority, be offered any vacant positions for which they are qualified prior to the vacant positions being offered to employees not subject to an hours reduction. b. Accept the reduced hours. An employee choosing this option may elect to be placed on the reinstatement roster in accordance with Section 11 (g) above. c. If the employee is not the least senior employee, the employee may displace the least senior employee in the classification in the bargaining unit. In the event that additional regular hours in a classification become available on a continuing basis in the department or unit, the Employer will offer the hours of the regular continuing schedule to the most senior employee in the classification who has had an FTE reduction under this Section within the preceding twelve (12) months.
