Voluntary Shift-Change. Employees in WWE Operations and Maintenance may voluntarily participate in a semi-annual shift change process. Such voluntary shift changes shall take place on the first day of the first pay period of January and July of each year.

Employees: (i) with documented performance deficiencies, including but not limited to employees on a Performance Improvement Plan, (ii) currently under investigation or subject to pending discipline, (iii) provisional employees, (iv) as-needed employees, or (v) probationary employees who are not within 30 days of satisfactorily completing probation, are not eligible to participate in this voluntary shift change process.
