The Fire Chief or designee may approve exceptions to trade shifts on a case by case basis if operational requirements warrant.

TRADE SHIFTS. This demand is settled on the basis that employees may with the prior approval of Supervision, change shifts, if each employee is capable of performing all the requirements of the jobs involved. The approval of Supervision will be without discrimination. Once employees have commenced their shift trade, such trade will not be cancelled because of discipline. Supervision will consider the needs of the affected employees before cancelling the shift trade. If the shift trade is cancelled, only employees affected by the shift trade would be returned to their regular shift.
