Voluntary Low Census Sample Clauses

Voluntary Low Census. When employees are called at home prior to a shift for voluntary low census it will be made clear that staying home on low census is voluntary. When volunteers are sought the following guidelines will be followed: Guidelines for Implementing Voluntary Low Census. Examples of Voluntary Low Census: A. Voluntary Low Census is given for the entire shift (applies to regularly scheduled shifts). B. Voluntary Low Census is given for part or all of the shift with the understanding that the employee will report to work at the designated time (Example: 12 hr night shift, Voluntary Low Census given from 7 pm to 11 pm, then employee reports to work at 11 pm for the last 8 hours for the shift.) C. Voluntary Low Census is given for part or all of the shift and stand-by may be given for part or all of the shift as approved by the manager or designee (for example for a 12-hour shift RN is Voluntary Low Census for the first 4 hrs and may be offered voluntary low census for the next four or eight hours or placed on stand by and receive stand-by pay for the last 4 or 8 hrs at the discretion of the manager). The RN has the ability to voluntarily accept or decline the request for low census standby. If the RN declines the stand-by or the alternative start time, they may be requested to work the designated hours and the opportunity for standby status could be given to someone else. If the RN accepts stand-by and is called in the time worked is paid at time and one-half for the remainder of the agreed upon standby hours (for example: RN is on low census standby from 0700-1100RN is called in at 0900. RN is paid standby 0700-0900 and time and one half until 1100 then would revert to regular rate of pay). D. Expectation is that employee will come into work. If circumstances change & additional low census can be offered it becomes a new event & the low census rotation will be reviewed at that time to determine who should get low census. This should not occur on a regular basis. If this becomes the consistent practice, then example “C” is the best option. Once an employee goes to standby status it is for the home unit only, not for the house. Every effort will be made to notify the RN for the need for low census as early as possible prior to the start of the shift but not later than the one (1) hour prior to the start of their shift (i.e. 6 am for a 7 am start time). NOTE: • Staff inquiring or requesting Voluntary Low Census will contact the charge nurse on their home unit or the sta...

Voluntary Low Census. (VLC) When a staff member requests in writing to be placed on the low census list prior to the start of their shift, or during their shift. If the employee is unclear as to the designation of the low census (ILC or VLC), they should seek clarification at the time of the request. Employees that volunteer for low census may use vacation leave, personal leave, personal holiday or leave without pay for the time in VLC. Prior to implementing involuntary low census, all traveler and agency nurses shall be released from work on the unit unless the traveler or agency nurse possesses a unique skill which is required on the unit. If a nurse is subject to involuntary low census on one unit and is able to float to another unit and accept a full resident assignment, then traveler and agency nurses shall be released from work on that other unit to accommodate the floating nurse, unless the traveler or agency nurse possesses a unique skill which is required on the unit. Unless the employee agrees to otherwise, a nurse subject to involuntary low census shall be low censused for the entirety of the shift or, if the employee has already begun working, for the entirety of the remainder of the shift. Nurses who agree to remain on call shall be compensated under the standby provisions of Article 41.20 (Standby) of the collective bargaining agreement. When involuntary low census is required, it will be assigned to employees on duty in inverse order of seniority, provided the employee has the skills and abilities required of the positions. The inverse order will be re- established when the list has been exhausted, i.e. the employee with the greatest seniority has worked their required involuntary low census.

  • Voluntary and Involuntary Prepayments (a) Any receipt by Xxxxxx of principal due under this Note prior to the Maturity Date, other than principal required to be paid in monthly installments pursuant to Section 3, constitutes a prepayment of principal under this Note. Without limiting the foregoing, any application by Xxxxxx, prior to the Maturity Date, of any proceeds of collateral or other security to the repayment of any portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note constitutes a prepayment under this Note. (b) Borrower may voluntarily prepay all of the unpaid principal balance of this Note on an Installment Due Date so long as Borrower designates the date for such prepayment in a Notice from Borrower to Lender given at least 30 days prior to the date of such prepayment. If an Installment Due Date (as defined in Section 1(a)) falls on a day which is not a Business Day, then with respect to payments made under this Section 10 only, the term "Installment Due Date" shall mean the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled Installment Due Date. (c) Notwithstanding subsection (b) above, Borrower may voluntarily prepay all of the unpaid principal balance of this Note on a Business Day other than an Installment Due Date if Borrower provides Lender with the Notice set forth in subsection (b) and meets the other requirements set forth in this subsection. Borrower acknowledges that Xxxxxx has agreed that Borrower may prepay principal on a Business Day other than an Installment Due Date only because Lender shall deem any prepayment received by Lender on any day other than an Installment Due Date to have been received on the Installment Due Date immediately following such prepayment and Borrower shall be responsible for all interest that would have been due if the prepayment had actually been made on the Installment Due Date immediately following such prepayment. (d) Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents, Borrower may not voluntarily prepay less than all of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

(e) Except as provided in Section 10(f), a prepayment premium shall be due and payable by Borrower in connection with any prepayment of principal under this Note during the Prepayment Premium Period. The prepayment premium shall be whichever is the greater of subsections (A) and (B) below:

  • Voluntary Commitment Reductions (i) Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof to Administrative Agent (which original written or telephonic notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount. (ii) Borrower’s notice to Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in Borrower’s notice and shall reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share thereof; provided that a notice of termination or partial reduction may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or upon the closing of an acquisition transaction, in which case such notice of termination or partial reduction may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date) if such condition is not satisfied.
