Shift Allocation a) All reporters will work nights and weekends as required, with shifts based on an equitable rotation agreed upon by the staff and the department head. Exceptions, at the employer’s discretion, may be required for reporters covering courts.
Shift Allocation. (a) If an insufficient number of employees volunteer to meet what is regarded by management as its requirements, shifts will be shared as equitably as possible by City Desk reporters with the exception of two (2) Legislature reporters, the City Hall bureau chief, the Police Beat reporter and the Principal Law Courts reporter. Those on Sports beats will work nights and weekends as required. All photographers will work shifts based on an equitable rotation agreed upon by the staff and the department head in which no one will work more than two (2) consecutive months of nights unless he/she volunteers. Regular work schedules for all reporters and photographers, except employees in the Sports department, shall be posted two (2) weeks in advance. The Company will make every effort to schedule employees so that they regularly get consecutive days off. No reporter, except those in the sports department, will work more than two (2) consecutive months of nights unless the employee volunteers.
Shift Allocation. The parties hereby agree to the following:
Shift Allocation. The current method of shift allocation as determined by the employees under this Agreement will continue. To facilitate training opportunities or to maintain the balance of skills on particular shifts, the Company will discuss and explore with the employee / union representatives all reasonable options to facilitate the shortfalls including employees volunteering on a short term basis up to a maximum period of six
Shift Allocation. Shifts available due to an Employee's leave of absence will be offered in the following order: - to Employees within the same classification by order of seniority - to Employees having the required qualifications working in a different classification by order of seniority. Subject to Article 1.07, such shifts shall be allocated for the length of the entire leave of absence. It is understood that such available shifts shall be given to the replacing Employee as soon as the schedule can be altered.
Shift Allocation. As a result of recent changes to the Junior Doctors contracts, time spent in OOH training by doctor in training is deducted from their work ‘in hours’. Therefore the following approach is now in operation; First GP post (generally ST1); Doctor in Training will not usually undertake any OOH work. Instead they should be prepared for later work in this field by: • Experience gathered through educational interventions which could include telephone triage, consulting skills in hours • Observation of urgent / unscheduled care provision within hours • In Hours experiential work in the practice Second and third GP posts (generally ST3): The precise arrangements will vary across areas in accordance with local negotiations. However, in general terms, doctor in training will address their learning needs in this field through the following: • At the beginning of ST3 at least 1 educational session on delivering unscheduled care should be delivered in house by the in-hours GP trainer (clinical supervisor), and one day should be spent delivering such care under close supervision • At the beginning of ST3 1 or 2 induction session(s) should be delivered by an OOH provider in-hours as study leave (see above); this would cover basic induction to the work, the provider’s systems and specific training in telephone triage. It may cover a range of other subjects. Attendance is mandatory, and in addition to the current regional teaching programme • During OOH training doctor in training are supervised either by a Trainer, or by a GP who has been trained and approved by the School of Primary Care to act as a Clinical Supervisor • Doctor in training’s competence for remote supervision is confirmed by the trainer using the OOH3 and OOH4 forms (see below). The traffic light system is used i.e. Red = Not ready for own OOH caseload (OOH5) Xxxxx = Can manage own shift, with supervisor present (OOH3) Green = Can manage own shift with remote supervision (supervisor on the phone, actively supervising and available to attend centre if needed) (OOH4) Green shifts might be solo (at quiet more rural centres) or alongside a non-supervising doctor in a more urban centre (with the supervisor typically at home or nearby). All green and amber shifts should have protected time for feedback. • Once certified amber or above by the trainer, the doctor in training will undertake (insert individual session number, or number of hours, per provider here – will be 4-6) sessions of OOH work in each 6m post w...
