Common use of Part Time Call Ins Clause in Contracts

Part Time Call Ins. (a) Once the schedule is posted, and where multiple tours remain available, all available tours will be offered to regular part time employees until they have been offered sufficient tours to have their minimum commitment (45 hours/pay) met, beginning with the most senior who has not reached their commitment. It is understood that available shifts will not be split. The remaining available tours, if any will be offered to regular part time on the unit who may select up to full time hours in descending order of seniority on a rotational basis. For clarity, where the most senior employee is offered the first opportunity to select additional tours, on the next occasion when multiple tours become available, the second most senior employee will be offered the first opportunity to select additional tours and so on. Having exhausted all regular part time employees, should multiple tours still remain available, they will be offered in accordance with the order specified in O.4 below subject to the following: i) A tour is deemed to be offered whenever a call is placed; ii) It is understood that the Hospital will not be required to offer tours which would result in premium pay; iii) When an employee accepts an additional tour, she/he must report for that tour unless arrangements satisfactory to the Hospital are made; iv) There is no responsibility for the caller or the Hospital to wait for an answer. The nurse must give her/his answer when called. (This does not prevent a nurse from attempting to make arrangements required in order to be able to accept the shift and calling back to the Hospital to see if the tour(s) is/are still available.) v) When known at the time of call in that a full weekend is available, the call in shall include the full weekend. When a single shift call in on a weekend is done, should a second tour on the same weekend become available, it will first be offered to the nurse who has accepted the single shift provided that no premium pay is incurred as a result. (b) Once the schedule is posted, and where call ins are required the available tour will be offered to regular part time employees on the unit with less than minimum commitment (45 hours/pay), beginning with the most senior part time nurse who does not have minimum commitment. It is understood that available tours will not be split. Thereafter, additional tours will be offered in descending order of seniority beginning with the employee immediately junior to the employee offered the last such tour. Having exhausted all regular part time employees, should single tours still remain available, they will be offered in accordance with the order specified in O.4 below subject to the following: i) A tour is deemed to be offered whenever a call is placed; ii) It is understood that the Hospital will not be required to offer tours which would result in premium pay; iii) When an employee accepts an additional tour, she/he must report for that tour unless arrangements satisfactory to the Hospital are made; iv) There is no responsibility for the caller or the Hospital to wait for an answer. The nurse must give her/his answer when called. (This does not prevent a nurse from attempting to make arrangements required in order to be able to accept the shift and calling back to the Hospital to see if the tour(s) is/are still available.) v) Notwithstanding the above, where a part time nurse had a scheduled shift cancelled and a need arises whereby the Hospital intends to call a nurse in for the same cancelled shift, the nurse who has had her/his shift cancelled will be given the opportunity to work that call-in shift. vi) When known at the time of call in that a full weekend is available, the call in shall include the full weekend. When a single shift call in on a weekend is done, should a second tour on the same weekend become available, it will first be offered to the nurse who has accepted the single shift provided that no premium pay is incurred as a result.
