E. If an employee is absent from work for any part of the last scheduled work day before or the first scheduled work day after the day on which a holiday is observed pursuant to the terms of this Article, such employee shall receive holiday pay provided such absence is for an authorized or excused reason such as, but not limited to, illness, accident, vacation, personal leave day, bereavement leave day, or extreme weather conditions. It is understood that such authorized or excused absence need not be with pay in order for the employee to be eligible for the holiday pay. F. Subject to prior mutual written agreement between the Town and the Association, a schedule for holiday observances which differs from the days indicated in A may be established for employees of the Greenwich Library and Greenwich Board of Education, provided that the number of paid holidays is equal to the number of holidays set forth in A. In the event no agreement is reached for such change, the holiday schedule set forth in A shall control. Notwithstanding the above, in the event Board of Education determines to include Columbus Day and/or Veterans’ Day as a regular school day, such day(s) shall become part of the regular work week and the premium pay as set forth in paragraph C of this Article shall not apply. In such event each employee affected by the change shall be granted a floating holiday for Columbus Day and Veterans’ Day as each may be discontinued at the discretion of the Board of Education. The floating holidays shall be used during the school year. An employee wishing to use such floating holiday shall provide the Board with advance notice and the Board shall not unreasonably deny, condition or withhold the employee’s ability to utilize the floating holiday on a date of the employee’s choosing.

The Employer will not otherwise unreasonably refuse an Employee’s request to take annual leave.

In such circumstances, the employee will receive vacation pay requested at that time or a portion of the payment at that time and the balance on December 15th. Part-time employees will be allowed to make two (2) such requests per year based on earnings to June 30th.

Both parties agree, however, that the vacation schedule must be practical insofar as the operation of the business is concerned and therefore the Employer is able to make a final decision as to how many and which employees would be able to take vacation at any particular time. Seniority shall prevail in the event of a conflict of vacation requests between employees.

It is expected that those salaries will typically be within 20% of employees within that unit at a similar rank and/or experience level. In exceptional cases, bargaining-unit positions may be hired at a salary above that range contingent on extraordinary experience and extramural funding.
