Staff Attorneys Sample Clauses
The "Staff Attorneys" clause defines the role, responsibilities, and status of attorneys employed directly by a party, typically within a law firm or corporate legal department. It clarifies that these attorneys are not independent contractors or outside counsel, but are instead salaried employees subject to the employer's policies and oversight. This clause may specify the scope of their duties, reporting structure, and any limitations on their authority. Its core function is to distinguish staff attorneys from other legal professionals, ensuring clarity in employment relationships and delineating liability and supervision within the organization.
Staff Attorneys. The parties recognize that the attorneys’ workday and workweek will often exceed normal business hours. Each attorney shall therefore be entitled to earn up to ten (10) days compensatory time each year. Compensatory time shall be awarded for work on weekends or holidays. All compensatory time must be used prior to the end of the calendar year in which it is earned. At the employees’ discretion up to half of the compensatory days earned during a calendar year may be traded for payment at the employee’s current salary rate. Payment for “traded” compensatory days shall be made during the last pay period of the calendar year in which they are earned.
