Common use of Training - Attendance Optional Clause in Contracts

Training - Attendance Optional. The Corporation and the Union recognize that voluntary training is at the discretion of the Corporation whether on an unpaid basis or paid for at straight-time rates for hours actually involved in the training. However, where the Corporation makes voluntary training available to employees and such training is on a paid basis, the Corporation will offer such training as follows. Employees who are not on shift at the time of the training will only be paid for the hours actually spent in the training. In most cases, this will involve an eight (8) hour shift rather than the normal twelve (12) hour shift configuration. Similarly, employees who are scheduled to work but elect to take voluntary training will only be paid for the hours actually spent in the training. They will, however, be able to use banked statutory holiday time, overtime or vacation time to cover off the difference between the hours spent in training and those they were normally scheduled to work. Alternatively, the Civilian Supervisor will attempt to make it possible for an employee to work part of their shift and have the balance of the shift covered through auxiliary replacements (if operationally warranted) in order to provide the employee with an additional option to maintain full pay. The above provisions and procedures are agreed to on a “without prejudice” basis to the interpretation of the provisions of Schedule “C” of the Collective Agreement governing shift changes for RCMP civilian staff. This Agreement shall be effective the date of ratification of the Memorandum of Agreement. Agreed to this 2nd day of May , 1997.

The written agreement shall be signed off by the Manager of Human Resources, CUPE Local 403, and the affected employees. • No “Job Sharing Arrangement” shall be considered or continued which conflicts with the terms of the Collective Agreement, creates significant operational difficulties, service delivery issues or administration complications, or adversely impacts directly on the rights of other employees. • Participation of employees in a Job Sharing Arrangement shall be voluntary. • Participation shall be limited to Regular Full-Time and Regular Part-Time Employees who have completed their probationary period and are considered by the Township to be qualified and capable of undertaking the work of the position proposed for job sharing. • Participation in any Job Sharing Arrangement shall normally be arranged from within the same classification. No employee shall attain a promotion through the approval of a job sharing arrangement although an employee may voluntarily accept a demotion in order to participate in job sharing. • Employees wishing to establish a Job Sharing Arrangement must submit a written proposal to management and the Union outlining the reasons for the arrangement, its feasibility, and operating details necessary to implement it, such as: start date, days and hours worked, absence coverage, and sharing of responsibilities. Letter of Understanding – Job Sharing (cont'd) Page 2 • Shared positions shall be treated in all respects as though they were single positions with regard to scheduling and job descriptions. • Where a Job Sharing Arrangement has been approved for implementation by the Township, the operating divisions shall have a trial period of up to sixty (60) working days to determine whether the job sharing agreement is workable. • A regular full-time vacancy created as a result of a Job Sharing Arrangement shall be posted in accordance with the provisions of Article 13.1 of the Collective Agreement although nothing in this Letter of Understanding shall obligate the Township to post and fill positions which are not required. The operating division may, however, delay the final appointment to a job sharing vacancy until such time as the trial period has successfully concluded. • A work schedule will be set out in advance showing days, hours or shifts to be worked by the Job Sharing partners. • During the period of the Job Sharing Arrangement, the accumulation of sick leave, vacation and statutory holiday time shall be pro-rated based on the schedule of hours agreed upon for the participants. Previously accumulated banked vacation, statutory holiday time, sick leave and overtime will not be affected. • Job Sharers shall accumulate seniority on the basis of hours worked. • Job Sharers shall earn increments based on the accumulation of hours equivalent to that of a full-time employee occupying the same classification. • Job Sharing partners shall continue to be entitled to full coverage under the Health and Welfare benefits such as medical, dental, extended health, and group life insurance, but shall be responsible for the additional benefit premium costs associated with the Township employing two employees in one position. • Employees engaged in a Job Sharing Arrangement may work up to the normal weekly hours of work associated with their classification (i.e., 35, 37½, 40 or 42 hours per week) in order to meet the hours specified for the Job Sharing Arrangement and/or to provide sick leave coverage or vacation relief for their partner or to assist occasionally in work overload situations. In doing so, their regular hours of work shall continue to be governed by Article 7 of the Collective Agreement and the employees shall be entitled to the daily overtime rates set out in Article 8.1 for any shifts so scheduled.

Training - Attendance Optional. The Corporation and the Union recognize that voluntary training is at the discretion of the Corporation whether on an unpaid basis or paid for at straight-time rates for hours actually involved in the training. However, where the Corporation makes voluntary training available to employees and such training is on a paid basis, the Corporation will offer such training as follows. Employees who are not on shift at the time of the training will only be paid for the hours actually spent in the training. In most cases, this will involve an eight (8) hour shift rather than the normal twelve (12) hour shift configuration. Similarly, employees who are scheduled to work but elect to take voluntary training will only be paid for the hours actually spent in the training. They will, however, be able to use banked statutory holiday time, overtime or vacation time to cover off the difference between the hours spent in training and those they were normally scheduled to work. Alternatively, the Civilian Supervisor will attempt to make it possible for an employee to work part of their shift and have the balance of the shift covered through auxiliary replacements (if operationally warranted) in order to provide the employee with an additional option to maintain full pay. The above provisions and procedures are agreed to on a “without prejudice” basis to the interpretation of the provisions of Schedule “C” of the Collective Agreement governing shift changes for RCMP civilian staff. This Agreement shall be effective the date of ratification of the Memorandum of Agreement.
