TIME-TRADING. Bargaining unit employees may trade time, tours of duty and Xxxxx Days with other employees of the same rank or one rank higher or lower, subject to the following conditions: 1. The trading of time is done voluntarily by the employees and not at the request of the Employer. 2. The trade is not made for reasons related to the Employer’s business operations, but is due to the employee’s desire or need to attend to a personal matter. Time must actually be worked back ( or donated as per condition #9 below) and not paid monetarily except in the case of duty relief paid directly by the Union to the stand-by for attendance at conventions, seminars, or other events as approved by the Fire Chief. 3. The minimum number of hours traded equals two (2) hours. The Department will allow stand-bys of an hour or less from 0630-0730 and from 0730-0830 hours with the approval of the Duty Officer. 4. The time trade must be in writing on the request form and signed by all parties involved in the time trade. 5. Once the trade is approved, the signing parties become fully responsible for the newly traded and approved time to be worked. If an employee then fails to be at work or supply a suitable replacement within a reasonable time prior to the assigned work schedule, that employee (the most recently approved to work the designated time) will be docked for the missed hours of work at his normal rate of pay. The City will not be responsible for tracking time trades as to who owes whom time and takes no responsibility for requiring individuals to pay time back beyond what was approved on the approved request form. 6. All trading is subject to the reasonable approval of the Battalion Chief or the shift supervisor, as per the policies of the Fire Chief. 7. Employees working on an approved time trade shall be allowed to request and use leave on the “foreign” shift under the normal guidelines for time off. 8. Xxxxx Days can only be traded for Xxxxx Days and only within the same shift. 9.

Such a “time trade” will not be mandated by the City and the City bears no responsibility for insuring that time is paid back by the absent employee. All other rules apply including #5 and #7 as stated above.
