Weekends Holidays that fall on weekends will be observed on a day established by the School District.
On-Call Duty 11.01 Both parties hereto accept that, in order to provide appropriate service and care to patients/residents/clients, on-call duty hours may be required to be worked by Employees in addition to regular hours. Positions that are designated for on- call duties must be approved by the Employer designate and the Regional Medical Lead of the Employer. During an on-call shift, an Employee may be required to take phone calls or attend on-site at the facility and perform duties if requested. The Employee is therefore required to be available to return to work without undue delay. On-call duty hours are not hours where an Employee is required to be, or remain, on-site at the facility awaiting assignment of work, including coverage of a shift for another employee or resident physician. 11.02 An Employee in a position with approved on-call duties shall not be scheduled to work such duties in excess of seven (7) times averaged over a four (4) week call period (1:4), unless otherwise agreed between the Employee and the Employer. The duration of an on-call shift shall be determined by the Employer, but shall not exceed twenty-four (24) hours. 11.03 An on-call stipend of $200.00 per twenty-four (24) hour on-call shift shall be provided. If two or more Employees split an on-call shift, the on-call stipend payable for that shift will be pro-rated between Employees that split an on-call shift. 11.04 In addition to the on-call stipend, an Employee that is on-call and required by the Employer to return to work shall be paid at time and one-half (1.5x) for all such hours worked. 11.05 Hours of on-call duty and hours worked after being called into work while on-call shall not be included in the calculation of bi-weekly hours of work (or hours of work over four (4) weeks for Part-Time Employees) or overtime hours of work. 11.06 If an Employee is on-call and is called into work for more than four (4) hours, of which more than two (2) full hours is after midnight and before 0600 hours, and the Employee is scheduled to work on a day shift commencing the morning immediately following the on-call shift, the Employer will make a determination of one of the following: (a) the Employee will be assigned administrative (non-clinical) duties during the day shift, and may be permitted to start the day shift at a later time but shall not suffer any loss of pay for the period of the shift that is not worked. (b) where no administrative (non-clinical) duties are considered necessary, the Employee will be rescheduled to commence clinical duties at 1300 but shall not suffer any loss of pay for the period of the shift that is not worked; or (c) where the Employer considers that the duties performed during the on-call shift were particularly onerous, the Employee will not be required to work on the day shift and shall not suffer any loss of pay. 11.07 The duration of a call back to work shall be calculated starting from the time that the Employee arrives at the facility until the time that the Employee is no longer required to be at the facility. Notwithstanding, the Employee shall be paid not less than time and one-half (1.5) hour at straight time for each call back to work, including call backs that are cancelled while the Employee is en route to the facility.
On Call (a) Employees required to be on-call shall be paid one dollar ($1.00) per hour, or portion thereof. (b) The minimum on-call requirement shall be four (4) consecutive hours. (c) Should the Employer require an employee to have a pager, beeper or a cellular phone available during their on-call period, then all related expenses for such device shall be the responsibility of the Employer.
On-Call Pay 1. When a regular, limited-term or probationary employee is assigned on- call duty by the County, the employee shall, whenever practicable, be informed in writing at least five (5) days in advance of the dates and inclusive hours of such assignment; the employee shall be compensated at one-fourth (1/4) of his or her basic hourly rate for the entire period of such assignment. 2. On-call duty requires the employee so assigned to: (1) be reachable by telephone or other communications device; (2) be able to report to work in a reasonable time; and (3) to refrain from activities which might impair his or her ability to perform assigned duties. 3. Employees paid on a sixteen (16) hour shift basis are exempt from these provisions. 4. On-call pay shall not apply to extra help employees unless expressly directed in writing to be on-call.
Paid Holidays – Long Weekends (a) When an employee is scheduled to work a weekend where a paid holiday falls on the Monday or the Friday, the Employer shall endeavour to also schedule the employee to work the paid holiday. (b) When the employee is scheduled off on a weekend where a paid holiday falls on the Monday or the Friday, the Employer shall endeavour to schedule the employee off the paid holiday. (c) In the event of a scheduling conflict, 12.07 (a) will be the deciding provision.
Weekends Off In scheduling shifts the Hospital will endeavour to arrange schedules so as to provide for a minimum of eight (8) weekends off in every twenty-four (24) week period, and, in any event, at least one weekend off in each three (3) week period. Where a weekend off is not granted within a three (3) week period, time worked on such third weekend but not subsequent weekends shall be paid at the rate of time and one-half (1-1/2) unless the Hospital, notwithstanding its best efforts, was unable to meet this standard. This standard shall not apply where: (i) such weekend work was performed by the employee to satisfy specific days off requested by such employee; or (ii) such employee has requested weekend work, or was advised at the time of hire or when the job was posted that the regular schedule normally required continuous weekend work; or (iii) such weekend is worked as a result of an exchange of shifts with another employee; or (iv) the Hospital is unable to comply due to a prohibition against scheduling split days off. It is understood and agreed that there shall be no pyramiding of overtime premiums under the provisions of the Collective Agreement arising out of the foregoing undertakings. The foregoing shall have no application where other scheduling arrangements are provided acceptable to the Hospital and the employees affected and approved by the Union. If an employee who is called on their scheduled weekend off refuses a shift, the refused shift will not be counted as a refused shift, as they are entitled to the weekend off according to the collective agreement.
On Call Allowance (a) An employee who agrees to be on call, that is, the employee agrees to make themselves ready and available to return to work at short notice whilst off duty, shall be paid the allowance, for each period of 24 hours or part thereof, set out in Item 17 of Table 2 of Schedule B to this Agreement. (b) An employee who is directed to remain on call during a meal break shall be paid the meal break allowance set out in Item 18 of Table 2 of Schedule B to this Agreement, provided that no allowance shall be paid if, during a period of 24 hours, including such period of on call, the employee is entitled to receive the allowance prescribed in sub-clause 20.5(a). (c) Where an employee on call in accordance with sub-clause 20.5(a), leaves the residential aged care facility and is recalled to duty, she or he shall be reimbursed all reasonable fares and expenses actually incurred. Where in these circumstances the employee elects to use his or her own vehicle the employee shall be paid the per kilometre allowance set out in Item 5 of Table 2 of Schedule B to this Agreement. (d) This subclause shall not apply to a Director of Nursing, Deputy Director of Nursing or Assistant Director of Nursing.
Weekend Work (1) All ordinary hours of work performed between midnight on Friday and midnight on Sunday shall be paid for at the rate of time and one-half.
School Calendar The Dual Credit course schedule will be determined by the location of the course delivery, provided that the required contact hours and prerequisites are met. The instructional calendar for the high school portion of the School will be based on the School District calendar and comply with all related TEA regulations for school attendance. The School District will adjust its schedule as necessary to enable Students to enroll in and attend the college- level courses provided by College. The School District and College will coordinate the State Student assessment requirements to ensure said assessments are administered without penalty. The School District, School and College will ensure that the School calendar accounts for the required per-semester contact hours for courses. When the instructional delivery is on the College site, it may be necessary for Students to attend classes on days when the School District is closed (e.g., different holiday closures). When Students take classes at the College scheduled on days when School is closed, the School District will ensure that at least one staff member with administrative authority be on call and available to be reached by the College’s Office of High School Programs or other College staff in case of emergency. The designated School staff member will have access to Student emergency contact information. While the College agrees to make scheduling accommodations for required State assessments, including the STAAR and End of Course Exams, all contact hour requirements must be met. For assessments not mandated by the State, the College and School District will come to a mutual agreement on administration dates in order to appropriately manage disruptions of college courses and ensure contact hour requirements are met.
Normal Work Day The normal work day shall be eight (8) hours and the normal work week shall be forty (40) hours, Monday through Friday, provided however that nothing herein shall be construed as guaranteeing any EMPLOYEE eight (8) hours of work per day or forty (40) hours per week. A single shift shall consist of eight (8) hours of continuous employment, except for unpaid lunch period, between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
