VACATION SELECTION PROCEDURE. The straight seniority vacation (List “A”) allows two vacation spots per shift. Personnel by straight seniority may select one of the two slots for their vacation or they may choose to defer to the seniority in rank list. Seniority in Rank List (List “B”) allows two vacation spots per shift. After everyone has had the opportunity to select vacation on the straight seniority list, those who choose to defer their vacation pick to the seniority in rank list may pick any open vacation block. Once the vacation scheduling is completed, all days picked thereafter will be on a first-come basis.

Employees not granted all or part of their requested vacation time will be contacted by the Employer to arrange alternate available vacation time pursuant to Article 22.10(4) below.
3) The vacation schedule shall be posted and requests for vacation will be signed by Management and a copy returned to the applicant.
4) Employees shall indicate their first and alternate choices of vacation time on their application. Should a time become available after the completion of the initial schedule, the employer shall review the schedule and attempt to provide employees with their alternate choice by seniority.
5) Notwithstanding the reference to Industry Payroll Year in other clauses of this Article Annual holiday, the vacation selection procedure shall continue to operate on the basis of the calendar year.

(For example, if B shift works one hundred and twenty one (121) shifts in a given year and the number of eligible vacation shifts to be taken by employees is one hundred twenty eight (128) shifts, then the number of overlap shifts for B shift that calendar year is seven (7).
(D) The Platoon Battalion Chief will establish the number of overlap shifts prior to vacation selection. This process consists of determining the total number of personnel, assigned to any given shift times the total number of shifts each employee has accrued for that given year. This number equals the total vacation days required per shift. The City retains the right to adjust selected vacation shifts for the purpose of maximizing contiguous vacation opportunities for the most junior employees of the Department.
