Common use of Special Skills Clause in Contracts

Special Skills. a. The Department needs two certified breathalyzer operators assigned to the midnight shift in each district. The two operators will initially be selected from the volunteer list. If there are no breathalyzer operator volunteers from within the district, the department will search countywide for a breathalyzer operator volunteer. If a volunteer from another district is found, that officer will be permanently assigned to the district. The vacant position that is created from the resulting transfer will be filled by the transfer, from the district, of an officer on the basis of inverse seniority. In the event that no volunteers come forward, the operator(s) will be selected by inverse seniority from the station personnel list. The Department will use its best efforts to assign an officer from the midnight shift to the next breathalyzer training school from which vacancies exist. Once this officer is trained and certified, the officer involuntarily transferred to the midnight shift will be transferred back to his/her shift at the end of the fiscal year quarter following the quarter in which the training occurred.
