Shift Coverage. Minimum shift for twelve (12) hour shifts shall be two (2) sworn personnel (e.g., Patrol Officer; Sergeant) per shift. While it is not the University’s intention to avoid its obligations under Article 46- 2, if the University is unable to achieve minimum staff because a replacement is not immediately available to cover short staffing situations this circumstance shall not be subject to arbitration. A uniformed officer may not leave his/her shift until properly relieved. Proper relief takes place only when the incoming officer is present and in proper uniform. Pay for the relieving officer begins on the later of the scheduled start of his/her shift or the officer’s arrival on shift in proper uniform. Patrol Officers will not routinely be assigned dispatch functions, but may in unusual circumstances be assigned to assist in Dispatch on a temporary basis. Special events may be covered with on-duty personnel at the Department’s discretion. Economic or budgetary changes can lead to alteration of this order
