Workdays All workdays when the central and administrative offices are open shall be duty days for members employed on a twelve-month basis. All student days, when the schools are open, shall be duty days for members employed on a ten-month basis.
Shift Work Shift work is work not in excess of ordinary hours (ie 38 hours per week), but carried out wholly or partly between the hours of 7.00pm and 7.00am, Monday to Friday. Shift work is work scheduled at least 24 hours prior to the commencement of the shift. Employees required to work shift work will be paid at time and one quarter of the ordinary rate per hour for ordinary hours worked.
Scheduled Downtime For the purposes of this Agreement, Scheduled Downtime will mean those hours, as determined by us but which will not occur between the hours of 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM Eastern Time, Monday through Friday without your authorization or unless exigent circumstances exist, during which time we will perform scheduled maintenance or adjustments to the Environment. We will use our best efforts to provide you with at least twenty-four (24) hours of notice prior to scheduling Scheduled Downtime.
Shift Rotation Routine shift rotation is not an approach to staffing endorsed by the Employer. Except for emergency situations where it may be necessary to provide safe patient care, shift rotation will not be utilized without mutual consent. If such an occasion should ever occur, volunteers will be sought first. If no one volunteers, the Employer will rotate shifts on an inverse seniority basis until the staff vacancies are filled.
Shiftwork (A) Where the Employee would have received shift loadings had the Employee not been on leave during the relevant period and such loadings would have entitled the Employee to a greater amount than a loading of 17.5% of the payment under clause 23.1(c), then the shift loadings must be added to the payment under clause 23.1(c)(i) instead of the 17.5% loading.
(B) Provided further that if the shift allowance would have entitled the Employee to a lesser amount than the loading of 17.5% then such loading of 17.5% shall be used for the purpose of calculating annual leave loading in lieu of the shift allowance.
Scheduled Days Off Except in cases of emergency, no employee will be required to return to his/her place of employment on his/her scheduled day off.
Scheduled Outages (1) No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the dates required by the ISO for delivery of schedules for planned outages (which such ISO required delivery dates are currently January 15th, April 15th, July 15th and October 15th of each calendar year during the Facility Term), and at least sixty (60) days prior to the later of: (A) Initial Synchronization, or (B) SCE becoming Seller’s Scheduling Coordinator, Seller shall submit to SCE its schedule of proposed planned outages (“Outage Schedule”) for the subsequent twenty four-month period using the Web Client. If Seller fails to submit an Outage Schedule for any period as required under this Section 3.19, then Seller shall not be permitted to schedule or have any planned outages with respect to such period. The foregoing shall not prevent Seller from modifying its Outage Schedule in cooperation with SCE and the ISO. SCE shall provide Notice to Seller in the event that the ISO changes the ISO required delivery dates for schedules for planned outages. In addition, no later than thirty (30) days prior to October 15 of each year, Seller shall submit to SCE its estimate of its planned outages for the following year.
(2) Seller shall provide the following information for each proposed planned outage:
(A) Start date and time;
(B) End date and time; and
(C) Capacity expected to be online, in MW, during the planned outage.
(3) Within twenty (20) Business Days after SCE’s receipt of an Outage Schedule, SCE shall notify Seller in writing of any reasonable request for changes to the Outage Schedule, and Seller shall, consistent with Prudent Electrical Practices and as permitted by the ISO, accommodate SCE’s requests regarding the timing of any planned outage.
(4) Seller shall cooperate with SCE to arrange and coordinate all Outage Schedules with the ISO.
(5) In the event a condition occurs at the Generating Facility which causes Seller to revise its planned outages, Seller shall provide Notice to SCE, using the Web Client, of such change (including an estimate of the length of such planned outage) as soon as practicable after the condition causing the change becomes known to Seller.
(6) Seller shall promptly prepare and provide to SCE upon request, using the Web Client, all reports of actual or forecasted outages that SCE may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling SCE to comply with Section 761.3 of the California Public Utilities Code or any Applicable Law mandating the reporting by investor owned utilities of expected or experienced outages by electric energy generating facilities under contract to supply electric energy.
Workweek A regularly re-occurring period of one hundred and sixty-eight (168) hours consisting of seven (7) consecutive twenty-four (24) hour periods. Workweeks will normally begin at 12:00 a.m. on Sunday and end at 12:00 midnight the following Saturday or as otherwise designated by the appointing authority. If there is a change in their workweek, employees will be given written notification by the appointing authority or their designee.
Regular Work Week The regular work week shall be any five (5) consecutive days, Sunday through Saturday, for a total regular work week of forty (40) working hours, subject to the applicable premiums where provided for in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, employees may volunteer to work schedules that fall outside of the regular work week of Sunday through Saturday and may do so, upon approval by the Company, and with no penalty cost to the Company, but with applicable premiums as provided for in this Agreement.
Ordinary Hours of Work The ordinary hours of work will be worked any time between 6.00am to 6.00pm Monday to Friday. Ordinary hours of work may be varied by agreement between the Employer and the majority of the employees concerned and the ETU State Secretary (via the relevant full time ETU Official) to accommodate the hours or work required for the most efficient and safe operation of the Employer and the requirements of its client. Where agreement is reached to work alternate hours, occupational health and safety principles will prevail. Proper health monitoring procedures will be introduced and suitable rosters clearly agreed prior to commencing work. Adequate supervision must always be provided. Matters on which agreement may be reached include:
a) How the hours are to be averaged in a work cycle b) The duration of the work cycle
