Common use of Scheduling Meetings Clause in Contracts

Scheduling Meetings. It is mutually understood that effective communication among all parties to the Agreement provides for a more effective labor relations environment. Toward that end, building administrators will, upon the request of building representatives, schedule Association meetings before or after the eight-hour on-site faculty meeting day. When the agenda permits and is subject to mutual agreement, the Association meeting may begin within the on-site day. Administrators and building representatives will assure that Association and faculty meetings begin and/or end on schedule so as not to interfere with one another. The faculty representative shall privately inform the supervisor(s) prior to the staff meeting if the supervisor(s) are invited to remain at the meeting for the Association portion of the meeting. If the supervisor(s) are not invited to stay, they should leave the staff meeting prior to the Association portion of the meeting. The faculty representative may schedule additional Association meetings before and after the student attendance day.
