Split Shifts No shift shall be split for a period longer than the regularly scheduled meal and rest periods as provided for in Article 14.08.
JOB SHARING North Bay; Perth-Huron; Peterborough, Victoria & Haliburton; Sarnia- Lambton Taking into consideration the fact that the Employer wishes to retain well- qualified staff who are unable or prefer not to provide a full-time commitment and the job-sharing can enable this to happen, the parties agree to the following provisions:
(a) Job-sharing requests with regard to full-time positions shall be considered on an individual basis, and the Employer shall reserve the right to determine the appropriateness of such arrangements, including the number of job-shared positions after discussions with the Union at the Labour Management Committee.
(b) Any incumbent full-time Nurse wishing to share their position may do so without having their half (½) of the position posted. The other half (½) of the job-sharing position will be posted, and selection will be in accordance with the Collective Agreement.
(c) Save and except as provided for herein, all job-sharers shall be treated as part-time employees and shall receive percentage in lieu of benefits.
(d) If one (1) of the job-sharers leaves the arrangement, their position will be posted. If there is no successful applicant to the position, the shared position must revert to a full-time position. The remaining Nurse will have the option of continuing the full-time position or reverting to a part-time position for which they are qualified. If they do not continue full-time, the position must be posted in accordance with the Collective Agreement.
(e) Posted schedules for the job-sharers shall be based on the schedules that would apply to a full-time Nurse holding that position. Such schedule shall conform to the scheduling provisions for full- time.
(f) Total hours worked by the two job-sharers shall be equal to one full- time position. The division of these hours over the schedule shall be determined by mutual agreement between the two Nurses and the immediate Supervisor. This does not exclude the Nurses from opportunities for extra available work.
(g) Each job-sharer may exchange shifts with their partner, as well as with other Nurses in accordance with the Collective Agreement, provided such exchange creates no additional labour cost to the Employer and meets continuity requirements.
(h) It is expected that both job-sharers will cover each other’s absences including incidental illnesses and vacation. If, because of unavoidable circumstances, one cannot cover the other, the Supervisor must be notified to book coverage. Job-sharers are not required to cover for their partners in the case or prolonged or extended absences but may be offered the opportunity to do so.
(i) Job-sharers will not be required to work in total more paid holidays than would one full-time Nurse, unless mutually agreed otherwise. Job-sharers will have the right to determine which partner works the scheduled holidays.
(j) Either party may discontinue the arrangement with one month’s written notice and the employees shall revert to their former status without posting if such positions are still available.

Reinstatement of Vacation Days - Sick Leave In the event an employee is sick or injured prior to the commencement of his/her vacation, such employee shall be granted sick leave and the vacation period so displaced shall be added to the vacation period if requested by the employee and by mutual agreement, or shall be reinstated for use at a later date.
Job Sharing / Time Sharing (a) Job sharing shall be interpreted to mean two employees sharing one full- time position (10 shifts bi-weekly).
(b) Time sharing shall be interpreted to mean two employees sharing one full line (14 shifts bi-weekly). Clarifying Note: One full-time and a regular part-time “shadow” does not constitute a time sharing arrangement.
(c) The introduction of job/time sharing arrangements in a Home will be subject to mutual agreement between the Union and the Employer. Job/time sharing requests shall be considered on an individual basis. Such approval will not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) The employees involved in job share/ time sharing are entitled to all the regular part-time provisions except those which are modified as follows:
i) Schedules and scheduling language shall be established by the mutual agreement of the Union and the Home. This will include the division of hours between the job/time sharers.
ii) Each job/time sharer may exchange shifts with her or his partner as well as other employees as provided by the Collective Agreement. Employees who are currently in a job/time sharing arrangement and are full-time will retain that status and be covered by the full-time provisions of the collective agreement. For clarity, this grandparents employees in time sharing arrangements, not positions. When individuals leave these positions, the vacant position will be posted under (f) and (g) below.
Vacation and Sick Leave During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to (a) sick leave in accordance with the Company’s policies applicable to similarly situated executive officers of the Company from time to time and (b) 4 weeks paid vacation each calendar year (up to 40 hours of which may be carried forward to a succeeding year).
Benefits and Vacation The Executive shall be eligible to participate in such insurance programs (health, disability or life) or such other health, dental, retirement or similar employee benefits programs as the Board may approve, on a basis comparable to that available to other officers and executive employees of the Company. The Executive shall be entitled to a minimum of three (3) weeks of paid vacation per year. Vacation time may be accumulated for up to one year beyond the year for which it is accrued and may be used any time during such year. Any vacation time not used during such additional year shall be forfeited. The value of any accrued but unused and unforfeited vacation time shall be paid in cash to the Executive upon termination of Executive's employment for any reason.
Flexible Hours Upon the request of an employee and the concurrence of the Employer, an employee may work flexible hours on a daily basis so long as the daily hours amount to seven decimal five (7.5).
Split Shift Except as otherwise provided in subsection B. below, any employee required to work a split shift shall be paid at a rate of five percent over and above his/her regular straight-time hourly rate of pay for the entire number of hours so worked. For purposes of this subsection "split shift" is defined as any eight hour daily tour of duty taking more than nine and one-half consecutive hours to complete.
Uses of Sick Leave a. Sick leave shall be accrued before being taken, provided that an employee who participates in a sick leave pool shall not be prohibited from using sick leave otherwise available to the employee through the sick leave pool.
b. Sick leave shall be authorized for the following:
i. The employee's personal illness or exposure to a contagious disease, which would endanger others.
ii. The employee's personal appointments with a health care provider.
iii. The illness or injury of a member of the employee's immediate family, at the discretion of the supervisor. Approval of requests for use of reasonable amounts of sick leave for caring for a member of the employee's immediate family shall not be unreasonably withheld. "Immediate family" means the spouse and the grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, children, and grandchildren of both the employee and the spouse, and dependents living in the household.
Vacations and Sick Leave The Executive shall be entitled to paid annual vacation leave in accordance with the policies as established from time to time by the Board of Directors, which shall in no event be less than four weeks per annum. The Executive shall also be entitled to an annual sick leave benefit as established by the Board for senior management employees of the Bank. The Executive shall not be entitled to receive any additional compensation from the Bank for failure to take a vacation or sick leave, nor shall he be able to accumulate unused vacation or sick leave from one year to the next; provided, however, such Executive may carry forward from year to year a maximum of ten days of unused vacation leave.
