Overloads. a. In the event that a qualified contract instructor cannot be found, the College may, with the faculty member's agreement, engage a full-time faculty member on an overload basis (e.g., provide reduced workload in a subsequent semester, or, if this is not possible, pay for the extra course at contract faculty rates). When a Responsible Administrator offers a full-time regular faculty member an overload after the start of the semester, to replace another instructor on an emergency basis in a course that the first instructor began but is unable to continue with, the faculty member accepting the overload will be paid a pro-rated amount at regular salary rates for the portion of the course taught, or, at the discretion of the Responsible Administrator, may be provided the option of taking a reduced workload in a subsequent semester equivalent to the faculty member’s having taught the entire overload course. The option of banking a full section will be limited to circumstances in which the replacement occurs within the first four (4) weeks of a course. b. An overload is defined as bargaining unit ‘instructional’ work as defined in the Local Agreement, which is assigned to a regular faculty member, and which results in a workload in excess of 100% (eight sections/courses) of a regular workload. c. In accordance with Article 12.5 of the 2014 – 2019 Common Agreement, a faculty member may elect compensation for overload work by taking a reduction of workload in a subsequent year that is commensurate with the amount of the overload. Reduction of workload must be taken no later than two (2) years from when the overload was completed. d. At the time the overload is assigned, the faculty member must elect compensation or a reduction of workload in a subsequent year. The decision of the faculty member on this issue will be final.
