Prime Time Vacation Scheduling. Acknowledging that annual leave is important to both the health and well-being of nurses and to nurse retention, it is agreed that if requested and approved, nurses should receive unbroken consecutive days of prime time annual leave. It is not the responsibility of the nurse to find coverage for approved annual leave. To facilitate this objective by January 1 of each year, management will post a blank schedule covering the entire prime time period of June 1 through September 15. Staff will be listed, ranked by seniority, for each shift. Guidelines stated in Section 13.2.1 will be posted. The purpose of this posting is for informal communication of plans, so that nurses can view the requests of those with higher seniority. Nurses must still submit requests in writing to their manager as provided for in Section 13.2.1. In the event there are conflicting requests, then the same vacation period may not be granted to the same person annually so that equitable access exists in obtaining vacation time. After the February 15 deadline for requests, management will post a preliminary (temporary) prime time schedule by March 1 with requested annual leaves filled in and needed coverage indicated. Nurses will then, on a voluntary basis, work to cover open shifts and even out the core numbers. Prime time vacations of three (3) consecutive weeks will not be granted in the same season two (2) years in a row. Options include, but are not limited to, pre-scheduling per diem nurses, picking up extra shifts, and trades between nurses. The temporary schedule will be taken down by March 10 with a final schedule posted on March 15. Final approval of vacations, trades and replacements will be the responsibility of the Manager. Staff with denied vacation requests will be provided rationale. On larger units, or any units where coverage is particularly challenging, a vacation work group consisting of staff RNs, other staff, the manager, and unit scheduler may be formed to assist with this process. This work group may develop other innovative methods for increasing vacation coverage. The workgroup will evaluate the vacation requests during summer and holiday prime time with a goal of granting time off to at least 20% of core from each job classification and each shift at any one time. For those departments with ten (10) or less core employees in the same job classification that cannot cover for each other, the manager will evaluate and determine the operational number of release.
