Common use of Shift Assignments Clause in Contracts

Shift Assignments. All monitors district-wide shall have the opportunity to request assignment to any shift. The assignment of monitors to shifts that begin prior to 7 a.m. or after 11:30 a.m. shall be voluntary and shall be honored on the basis of seniority as defined in Section 13.03 of the Negotiated Agreement. Should a more senior monitor decline the opportunity to work one of these shifts, then the next most senior monitor shall be offered this shift, and so on through the seniority list. Should no monitor express an interest in working a shift with a start time beginning prior to 7 a.m. or after 11:30 a.m. then reverse seniority shall apply and the monitor with the least seniority shall be involuntarily assigned to the 11:30 or later start time and then the earlier than 7:00 a.m. start time. In instances of reassignment of monitors resulting in a change in start time of one (1) or more hours during the school year, the reassignment shall be voluntary and honored on the basis of seniority. Should a more senior member decline the opportunity the monitor with least seniority will be involuntary assigned to that shift. In instances of reassignment during the school year due to vacancies, the monitors assigned involuntarily shall have seven days from notification of their assignment in order to manage their personal affairs to accommodate the new work schedule. Monitors assigned to shifts that begin prior to 7 a.m. or after 11:30 a.m. shall, during the last three weeks of the school year, be issued the same assignment for the subsequent school year unless the monitor(s) submits a written request to be reassigned to one of the other shifts listed in Section 18.02, above. Such requests shall be honored unless the provisions regarding reverse seniority as described above are required.
