Overtime Assignments 1. In classifications where employees are eligible for overtime pay, overtime work shall be offered to employees within the work location involved from the appropriate work group in continuing rotation on the basis of seniority. Each employee shall be selected in turn according to his/her place on the seniority list by rotation provided, however, the employee whose turn it is to work possesses the qualifications, training and ability to perform the specific work required.
2. An employee requesting to be skipped when it becomes his/her turn to work overtime shall not be rescheduled for overtime work until his/her name is reached again in orderly sequence and an appropriate notation shall be made on the overtime roster.
3. In the event no employee accepts required overtime work, the State shall assign employees within the work location involved from the appropriate work group to perform the overtime work by continuing rotation in inverse order of seniority. Employees who are unavailable, including employees who are on vacation, sick leave or other approved leaves of absence, and employees for whom the requirement of overtime work would cause undue hardship, shall be excused from a required overtime assignment. Employees so excused shall not lose their eligibility for overtime work within the then current rotation.
4. Work in progress, when appropriate, shall be completed by the employee performing the work at the time the determination is made that overtime is required except that an employee for whom the requirement of overtime work would cause undue hardship shall be excused from the overtime assignment.
Overtime Assignment A. In institutional settings when the Agency determines that overtime is necessary, overtime shall be offered on a rotating basis, to the qualified employees who usually work the shift where the opportunity occurs. If no qualified employees on the shift desire to work the overtime, it will be offered on a rotating basis first to the qualified employee with the most state seniority at the work site. When there are no volunteers to work the overtime as outlined above, and/or where an emergency exists, reasonable overtime hours may be required by the Agency. Such overtime shall be assigned, on a rotating basis, first to the qualified employee with the least state seniority at the work site. This policy shall not apply to overtime work which is specific to a particular employee’s claim load or specialized work assignment or when the incumbent is required to finish a work assignment.
B. In non-institutional settings, the Agency reserves the right to schedule and approve overtime. In emergency situations overtime may be approved after the fact. Required overtime that can be worked by more than one (1) employee at the work site (that which is not specific to the particular employee’s case load or specialized work assignment) will be offered on a rotating, state seniority basis. If no qualified employee volunteers for the work, or where an emergency exists, then the qualified employee with the least state seniority at the work site will be assigned on a rotating basis.
C. The parties recognize that in both institutional and non-institutional settings, that the Employer has the right to require mandatory overtime where necessary; however, the Employer will not abuse the utilization of mandatory overtime.
Teaching Assignments No employee shall be assigned to teach in a grade level and/or subject area not within the scope of his/her teaching certificate, except where a position within his/her certification is unavailable or when mutually agreed to by the affected employee and principal, or when determined necessary by the principal. Employees assigned to positions outside the scope of their certificates shall be assigned as soon as possible to positions for which they hold certification.
TEACHING LOADS AND ASSIGNMENTS A. The Board has the right to determine class schedules (Article III, Board Rights). The normal teacher load would include one preparation period for each full day equal in time to the teaching period length. The Association would be notified of possible changes in the schedule. Some of the reasons for schedule changes could be a change in the State requirements, student needs, financial hardship, etc. (This list is not intended to be all inclusive.)
1. With the exception of a preparation period, teachers may be assigned to various locations throughout the buildings at the discretion of the Board fifteen (15) minutes prior to classes beginning and ending.
2. Secondary teachers may be assigned an additional teaching period at a rate equivalent to one (1) period of their normal teaching load. This will be avoided as much as possible unless a scheduling problem would arise.
3. In the case where it is advantageous and beneficial to run a zero (0) hour class for students at the High School, no teacher shall be required to take that position. Any teacher who voluntarily accepts such a position shall either be compensated at their teacher rate or shall be allowed to end their work day one class hour prior to the end of the student day.
4. Teachers in grades K-5 will not be required to have recess duty. The time established for vocal music, physical education, study skills, computers, etc. shall be used for preparation time for K-5 teachers. This time shall not be reduced to less than a forty-five (45) minutes for K-5.
B. The Board shall make every effort to equalize teaching loads so that no High School or Middle School teacher shall be required to have more than three (3) preparations. However, when a teacher is assigned more than three (3) preparations the teacher shall be compensated Two Hundred ($200.00) Dollars per semester. The exceptions to the above preparations shall be teachers assigned to music, physical education, industrial education, and art. Extra Prep is defined as any course that is listed under a different course name and number, has a different course description, and requires different lesson plans.
C. The Xxxxx Professional Education Association and the Xxxxx Board of Education agree that it is the responsibility of all staff to be knowledgeable of changes in the law that have an affect on their position. Because of the critical nature of compliance with the law, notification concerning changes in the law will be shared between the Association and the Board.
Shift Assignments When an opening occurs in a shift assignment in an appropriate work group at a location, preference shall be given to employees within the classification who possess the training, ability and any required special qualifications to perform the work required, on the basis of seniority. In the event that no employee desires a shift assignment, employees shall be selected in order of inverse seniority. This provision shall not apply to necessary training assignments. This provision shall not in itself alter the practice of rotating shifts where such practice presently exists. No employee who has a regular shift assignment on the effective date of the Agreement shall be involuntarily displaced from such shift assignment as a result of this Article.
Change of Control; Assignment and Subcontracting Except as set forth in this Section 7.5, neither party may assign any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other party, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. For purposes of this Section 7.5, a direct or indirect change of control of Registry Operator or any subcontracting arrangement that relates to any Critical Function (as identified in Section 6 of Specification 10) for the TLD (a “Material Subcontracting Arrangement”) shall be deemed an assignment.
(a) Registry Operator must provide no less than thirty (30) calendar days advance notice to ICANN of any assignment or Material Subcontracting Arrangement, and any agreement to assign or subcontract any portion of the operations of the TLD (whether or not a Material Subcontracting Arrangement) must mandate compliance with all covenants, obligations and agreements by Registry Operator hereunder, and Registry Operator shall continue to be bound by such covenants, obligations and agreements. Registry Operator must also provide no less than thirty (30) calendar days advance notice to ICANN prior to the consummation of any transaction anticipated to result in a direct or indirect change of control of Registry Operator.
(b) Within thirty (30) calendar days of either such notification pursuant to Section 7.5(a), ICANN may request additional information from Registry Operator establishing (i) compliance with this Agreement and (ii) that the party acquiring such control or entering into such assignment or Material Subcontracting Arrangement (in any case, the “Contracting Party”) and the ultimate parent entity of the Contracting Party meets the ICANN-‐adopted specification or policy on registry operator criteria then in effect (including with respect to financial resources and operational and technical capabilities), in which case Registry Operator must supply the requested information within fifteen (15) calendar days.
(c) Registry Operator agrees that ICANN’s consent to any assignment, change of control or Material Subcontracting Arrangement will also be subject to background checks on any proposed Contracting Party (and such Contracting Party’s Affiliates).
(d) If ICANN fails to expressly provide or withhold its consent to any assignment, direct or indirect change of control of Registry Operator or any Material Subcontracting Arrangement within thirty (30) calendar days of ICANN’s receipt of notice of such transaction (or, if ICANN has requested additional information from Registry Operator as set forth above, thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of all requested written information regarding such transaction) from Registry Operator, ICANN shall be deemed to have consented to such transaction.
(e) In connection with any such assignment, change of control or Material Subcontracting Arrangement, Registry Operator shall comply with the Registry Transition Process.
(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any consummated change of control shall not be voidable by ICANN; provided, however, that, if ICANN reasonably determines to withhold its consent to such transaction, ICANN may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.3(g), (ii) ICANN may assign this Agreement without the consent of Registry Operator upon approval of the ICANN Board of Directors in conjunction with a reorganization, reconstitution or re-‐incorporation of ICANN upon such assignee’s express assumption of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (iii) Registry Operator may assign this Agreement without the consent of ICANN directly to a wholly-‐owned subsidiary of Registry Operator, or, if Registry Operator is a wholly-‐owned subsidiary, to its direct parent or to another wholly-‐owned subsidiary of its direct parent, upon such subsidiary’s or parent’s, as applicable, express assumption of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (iv) ICANN shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment, Material Subcontracting Arrangement or change of control transaction in which the Contracting Party is an existing operator of a generic top-‐level domain pursuant to a registry agreement between such Contracting Party and ICANN (provided that such Contracting Party is then in compliance with the terms and conditions of such registry agreement in all material respects), unless ICANN provides to Registry Operator a written objection to such transaction within ten (10) calendar days of ICANN’s receipt of notice of such transaction pursuant to this Section 7.5. Notwithstanding Section 7.5(a), in the event an assignment is made pursuant to clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 7.5(f), the assigning party will provide the other party with prompt notice following any such assignment.
Shift Assignment Should the University elect to establish a shift on any other schedule than the regular day shift (Monday through Friday) or to assign employees to work on any such shift, the employee(s) with the most seniority in the classification affected or to be assigned on such shift shall have preference in moving to such shift. If an insufficient number of employees in the classification elect to move to such shift, then the employee(s) with the least seniority in the classification shall be assigned to such shift. If positions or shifts are reduced or eliminated or movement of personnel to other shifts is required, then the seniority of the affected employee will prevail in the selection of shift, provided the affected employee can do the required work. Such shift preference is only applicable within the employee's classification.
Extra Duty Assignments (A) Teachers are required to supervise their students at all times, including recess, during the normal school day for teachers. No teacher will be required to supervise students during their duty-free lunch, nor during their preparation time, except in cases of emergency.
(B) Teachers may be required to perform non-compensated service to students, which extend beyond the normal school day for teachers in cases of emergency. Attendance at Board meetings, PTA/PTO meetings which cannot be concluded during the normal teaching day, and parent conferences shall occasionally be required.
(C) The PLCAC will make recommendations regarding the procedures for the supervision of students.
(D) Each principal shall solicit volunteers from the regular teaching staff, the support staff, and the itinerant staff to perform scheduled routine jobs occurring during the bargaining unit member’s normal school day.
(E) Should there be an insufficient number of volunteers from the stated staff pool to perform the scheduled routine jobs during the normal school day for teachers, the principal will complete the schedule by assigning the remaining staff as equitably as possible.
(F) Staff members who are proficient in a second language, and are asked to serve as a translator outside of their regularly scheduled work day, shall be compensated based on the contractual extra duty rate of pay. Outside the regularly scheduled work day will be defined as:
(1) Before or after school;
(2) Before the start of the school year;
(3) After the school year has concluded.
(G) Teachers will be compensated for Board-sponsored and sanctioned clubs and programs at a stipend negotiated by the Board and Union.
(H) If stipend negotiations have not concluded when an established or a new activity is scheduled to begin, the Board will establish a temporary stipend, pay increases retroactive to the conclusion of negotiations.
(I) The Board shall post in every building the District’s paid extracurricular activities by the 2nd Friday in May of the year preceding the school term in which said activities take place. All postings shall be placed in all buildings.
(J) Qualified volunteers for said activities will be solicited from the bargaining unit members first, and then from non-bargaining unit members at stipends not to exceed those printed on the salary schedule.
Benefit; Assignment Subject to provisions herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, successors and assigns. No party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that a party hereto may assign its interest (or a portion thereof) in this Agreement to an Affiliate, but, in such event, the assignor shall be required to remain obligated hereunder in the same manner as if such assignment had not been effected.
Employees on Long Term Supply Assignments Employees completing long term supply assignments may only access sick leave and short term disability leave in the fiscal year in which the allocation was provided. Any remaining allocation may be used in subsequent long term supply assignments, provided these occur within the same fiscal year. Employees employed in a Long Term Supply Assignment which is less than the ordinary period of employment for the position shall have their sick leave and short term disability allocations pro-rated accordingly. Where the length of the long term supply assignment is not known in advance, a projected length must be determined at the start of the assignment in order for the appropriate allocation of sick leave/short term disability leave to occur. If a change is made to the length of the assignment, an adjustment will be made to the allocation and applied retroactively.
