Scheduling of Vacation. Staff members shall schedule their vacations after consultation and approval by their supervisors, who shall ensure that a monthly vacation credit and debit record for each staff member is maintained. Approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Scheduling of Vacation. By June 1 and November 1 of each year of the contract, employees may, using the standardized form authorized by the Office of Human Resources, submit to their immediate supervisors a vacation schedule for the ensuing 12 months.
Scheduling of Vacation. Vacations must be scheduled in advance and be approved by the Agency. The Agency shall schedule vacations throughout the calendar year using two separate sign up periods: An "Early" sign-up to cover January 1, through March 31 and a "Later" sign-up to cover April 1 through December 31. Both sign-up periods will occur early enough to provide each employee an opportunity to make his or her request known. The early sign-up period will begin on October 1 and end by December 5, of the previous calendar year so the results can be posted by December 15. The late sign-up period will begin on January 1, and will end by March 5 of the current calendar year so the results can be posted by March 15. Those not signing up during the above sign-up periods may lose the ability to be granted their request(s) on the basis of seniority. In cases of multiple requests or overlapping requests, preference will be given on the basis of Agency seniority. In cases of ties in Agency seniority, seniority in the classification shall be used. If an employee elects to divide his/her annual vacation into two or more periods (a period equals one (1) week) on a sign-up schedule and it is possible for Agency to give effect thereto, such employee shall be given preferential consideration over other employees in his selection of only one of such periods until all other employees within the group have indicated their first choice of a vacation period. Where more than one employee in a headquarters or group desires to divide his/her vacation into two or more periods on a sign- up schedule, there shall be subsequent sign-ups as required for selection of open periods not filled by the previous sign-up. Sign-ups for additional periods shall be conducted in the same manner with the employee with the most service having his/her choice of vacation periods not yet selected. Consecutive scheduled work days that fall into more than one (1) work period will be considered a single and continuous vacation period. Although the Agency will attempt to grant vacation as requested, it may be necessary to limit the number of employees who may be off at the same time in a headquarters, facility or classification to be able to provide the proper staffing and economic operation of the facility. Factors to be considered by the Agency include appropriate staffing requirements, operational needs of the Agency, available relief and the additional overtime, if any, that will be required to grant the requests.

Scheduling of Vacation. The current departmental procedures and practices governing the scheduling of choice of time and amounts of vacation shall continue. Employees shall not be precluded from taking vacation in increments of one (1) day. The parties recognize that the Employer has the right to determine the number of employees within each classification and work unit that may be on vacation at any given time; however, vacations shall be granted at times and in amounts most desired by employees whenever operations permit. Once vacation periods have been scheduled, the Employer shall make changes in employee vacation schedules only to meet unanticipated staff shortages or emergencies. In the event the Employer finds it necessary to cancel a scheduled vacation, the affected employee may reschedule the vacation during the remainder of the calendar year or extend the scheduling of the vacation into the ensuing calendar year as the employee desires, providing it does not affect other employees’ vacation periods. In the event that a vacation request is denied due to operational need, the supervisor will solicit officers in that Post or casino who are willing to work that shift(s) at straight time for the requestor. If an officer agrees, the vacation request shall be granted and the replacement officer shall work that shift(s). If no officers are willing or able to work the vacation day requested, the day off will continue to be denied. Once a day off request has been submitted, management shall approve or deny the request within ten (10) days. If an employee is hospitalized while on his or her paid vacation, the portion of the paid vacation spent in the hospital may be rescheduled upon satisfactory proof of said hospitalization being provided to the Employer. The Employer agrees that employees will not be required to return to work during their vacation period.
