Rescheduling of Shifts. Subject to Clause 14.05, when an employee's days off are changed or rescheduled within forty-eight (48) hours of the originally scheduled days off, they shall be paid double time for hours worked on the originally scheduled days off.
Rescheduling of Shifts. When a temporary vacancy occurs for any reason the employee on either the 0800h to 1600h or 0700h to 1500h shift, as the case may be based on season, (“Day Worker”) will move to relieve the absence on the vacant shift. For greater certainty, a Day Worker is an employee that works either eight (8) hour shifts or twelve (12) hour shifts, as per Article 13.03 of this Agreement, and a “Shift Worker” is an employee that works twelve (12) hour rotating shifts. When qualified help is available, promotions will be made from among the employees on the same shift in which the vacancy occurs. In cases of permanent promotions and determined absences of thirty (30) days or more in duration then the senior Shift Worker next in line for the job will be promoted, subject to efficiency and qualifications, with consequent promotions all down the line and securing the necessary help to fill the vacancy thus created in the lowest category job. If qualified help is not available on the shift then the following procedure will be followed: First, the vacancy will be filled at the bottom job position from the recall list. Second, employees on call on the classification where the vacancy exists shall be called. Third, other employees in that line of progression shall be called. The Company agrees to give twenty-four (24) hours notice when re-scheduling of shifts. All promotions, whether to fill temporary or permanent vacancies, must be accomplished in accordance with the established lines of progression. If no relief is available on the same shift to relieve for banked statutory holidays and floating holidays on the day that is requested, then the next senior qualified relief will be asked to change shifts. Change of shift must be made without any employee working two (2) consecutive shifts. Those employees on their regular days off are not to be affected unless under extenuating circumstances in which no other relief option exists.
