Except in emergencies or situations in which the employee agrees, shift assignment will not be changed without at least five (5) days notice; except that nothing in this Article precludes temporary reassignment of an employee because of illness, vacation, emergency, training, orientation, or similar causes. D. When the Employer changes the shift assignment of an employee, the Employer, whenever feasible, will solicit volunteers from among the group of potentially affected employees and select the senior employee from among the qualified volunteers in the job class.
