Overtime Equalization Policy. The University shall determine the availability of overtime. Good faith efforts will be made to equally distribute all overtime opportunities (both regular and special details overtime) among Bargaining Unit members who are qualified to perform the work assigned, who customarily perform the work assigned and who are available for a pre-scheduled assignment. For the purpose of effecting equal distribution of departmental overtime, the department shall maintain a system of record keeping of overtime worked by Bargaining Unit members. The system will require that reasonable efforts will be made to offer overtime opportunities to all Bargaining Unit members, and, whenever practical, will result in the assignment of overtime to the Bargaining Unit member with the fewest overtime hours beginning on July 1st and running through June 30th. To determine which Bargaining Unit members will be required to work pre-scheduled overtime, the University will post such overtime whenever practical where all Bargaining Unit members have access to sign up for it and will award the overtime using the following procedures: First Priority The member who signs up for the posted overtime and who has the lowest accumulated yearly overtime total to date will be selected to work the overtime. Second Priority If more than one (1) member is needed to fill the overtime posted, then the Bargaining Unit member who signs up for the overtime with the next lowest accumulated yearly overtime total to date will be selected to work the remaining overtime. The dispatcher who volunteers to work all, or the greater portion of the overtime assignment shall be the member selected to work the assignment. If it is determined that a Bargaining Unit member has not been given his/her overtime opportunity, it will be the sole obligation of the University to give preference to such Bargaining Unit member in future overtime assignments to correct the imbalance of opportunity.
