Vacation Period The choice of vacation periods shall be granted to employees on the basis of seniority with the Employer except where the period requested would be detrimental to the operation of the Employer.
Vacation Periods Vacation schedules will be set by the employee’s immediate supervisor(s) and sent to the Office of Human Resources for approval. Employees may request a particular period for vacation. Vacation days may not be taken in advance of their accrual. Those employees who are on a 12-month teacher contract are paid during Spring Break and Winter Recess, however, are not expected to be in attendance or perform duties during those breaks.
Returning to Work After a Period of Parental Leave (a) An employee will notify of their intention to return to work after a period of parental leave at least four weeks prior to the expiration of the leave.
Transition Period LVRT Standard The transition period standard applies to wind generating plants subject to FERC Order 661 that have either: (i) interconnection agreements signed and filed with the Commission, filed with the Commission in unexecuted form, finally executed as conforming agreements, or filed with the Commission as non-conforming agreements between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006, with a scheduled in-service date no later than December 31, 2007, or (ii) wind generating turbines subject to a wind turbine procurement contract executed prior to December 31, 2005, for delivery through 2007.
Recall from Vacation The Employer will make every reasonable effort not to recall an Employee to duty after she has proceeded on vacation leave or to cancel vacation once it has been approved.
Prime Time Vacation Period Subject to the provisions of this article, it is the intent of the parties that no employee will be restricted in the time of year they choose to take their vacation. The Employer will make every effort to allow employees to take their vacation during the period of April 15th to October 15th inclusive, which will be defined as the prime time vacation period.
Leave of Absence for Full-Time Union or Public Duties An employee who is elected or selected for a full-time position with the Union or anybody with which the Union is affiliated, or who is elected to public office, shall be granted leave of absence without pay and without loss of seniority.
Trial Service Period 1. Except for those employees in an in-training appointment, all other employees with permanent status who are promoted, or who voluntarily accept a transfer or demotion into a job classification for which they have not previously attained permanent status, will serve a trial service period of six (6) consecutive months. The Employer may extend the trial service period to no more than twelve (12) consecutive months, provided the employee is given written, performance based reasons for the extension. The Employer agrees to notify the employee when it intends to extend the trial service period beyond six (6) months. The employee may choose to notify the union.
Splitting of Vacation Periods Annual vacation for employees with 10 days’ vacation or more shall be granted in one continuous period but may, upon request from the employee, be divided, subject to the approval of the Employer, provided that the following shall apply:
TESTING OF THE BCDR PLAN The Service Provider shall test the BCDR Plan on a regular basis (and in any event not less than once in every Contract Year). Subject to paragraph 6.2, the Purchaser may require the Service Provider to conduct additional tests of some or all aspects of the BCDR Plan at any time where the Purchaser considers it necessary, including where there has been any change to the Services or any underlying business processes, or on the occurrence of any event which may increase the likelihood of the need to implement the BCDR Plan. If the Purchaser requires an additional test of the BCDR Plan, it shall give the Service Provider written notice and the Service Provider shall conduct the test in accordance with the Purchaser's requirements and the relevant provisions of the BCDR Plan. The Service Provider's costs of the additional test shall be borne by the Purchaser unless the BCDR Plan fails the additional test in which case the Service Provider's costs of that failed test shall be borne by the Service Provider. The Service Provider shall undertake and manage testing of the BCDR Plan in full consultation with the Purchaser and shall liaise with the Purchaser in respect of the planning, performance, and review, of each test, and shall comply with the reasonable requirements of the Purchaser in this regard. Each test shall be carried out under the supervision of the Purchaser or its nominee. The Service Provider shall ensure that any use by it or any Sub-contractor of “live” data in such testing is first approved with the Purchaser. Copies of live test data used in any such testing shall be (if so required by the Purchaser) destroyed or returned to the Purchaser on completion of the test. The Service Provider shall, within twenty (20) Working Days of the conclusion of each test, provide to the Purchaser a report setting out: the outcome of the test; any failures in the BCDR Plan (including the BCDR Plan's procedures) revealed by the test; and the Service Provider's proposals for remedying any such failures. Following each test, the Service Provider shall take all measures requested by the Purchaser, (including requests for the re-testing of the BCDR Plan) to remedy any failures in the BCDR Plan and such remedial activity and re-testing shall be completed by the Service Provider, at no additional cost to the Purchaser, by the date reasonably required by the Purchaser and set out in such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the carrying out of a test of the BCDR Plan (including a test of the BCDR Plan’s procedures) shall not relieve the Service Provider of any of its obligations under this Contract. The Service Provider shall also perform a test of the BCDR Plan in the event of any major reconfiguration of the Services or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Purchaser.
