Common use of Substitute Bus Drivers Clause in Contracts

Substitute Bus Drivers. Substitute bus drivers shall be considered for accumulation of seniority under the following conditions: a. They have satisfactorily driven for the Board as substitute driver for a period of sixty (60) days of work. Any part of a day worked shall be considered a full day. (Substitute drivers may join the Union upon completion of the sixty (60) days of work probationary period.) While a substitute driver is on probation he/she shall be exempt for Article II, Section F. b. Upon satisfactory completion of a probationary period of sixty (60) work days, the employee's name shall be entered on the substitute driver seniority list. Substitute drivers shall accumulate seniority on a “days worked” basis, that is, for each day worked the driver shall accumulate one day of seniority. Any part of a day worked shall count as one day. c. When a non-probationary driver makes a transition to substitute driver status, other than layoff, their seniority shall be terminated and this driver shall then begin to accumulate seniority as a new substitute driver. d. Selection of substitute bus drivers to train for regular driver duties shall be the responsibility of the Board of Education. The Board shall select the most qualified person who has the present ability and skill required to satisfactorily perform the regular driver duties. Selection of the most qualified person will be done through an interview process that will include a hiring committee of three people. Two of the members will be selected by the drivers’ union to assist in the evaluation and selection of the new regular driver. Criteria will be established to ensure that we highly consider our qualified most senior substitute drivers for any regular driver position. e. When a substitute driver is selected by the Board to train as a regular driver, they shall be allowed a training period that will vary based on their number of days worked as a substitute driver. The training period shall be a maximum of ninety (90) days of work and shall be reduced by the number of days worked as a substitute driver, up to a maximum reduction of sixty (60) days. For example, a substitute driver who has successfully completed their probationary period as a substitute driver would have a training period of thirty (30) work days (90 days total minus 60 days worked as a substitute = 30 days). A substitute driver who had completed 45 days of work as a substitute driver who was then selected to train as a regular driver would have a training period of 45 days of work (90 days total minus 45 = 45). f. Substitute drivers who cannot satisfactorily perform the duties of a regular driver during their training period shall be removed from regular driver duties and returned to substitute status, with no loss of seniority as a substitute. Such drivers shall not be considered for subsequent regular driver openings unless the Board deems it appropriate.
