Work Reduction Days. The City agrees to maintain the current practice/policy of using thirteen (13) work reduction days (based on nine (9) holidays, three (3) personal days and one (1) additional work reduction day) and use vacation if necessary to cover all work periods.
Work Reduction Days. The District shall provide each employee regularly scheduled to work 24-hour shifts with every 18th shift off (without loss of pay) as a work reduction day. Employees shall receive 12 hours off at the end of one 27-day cycle and another 12 hours off at the beginning of the next 27-day cycle to equal one 24-hour shift off. Except as provided below, the Chief or his designee schedules all work reduction days in advance. Additionally, employees shall receive two floating work reduction days in each fiscal year, which will be scheduled by the employees after the vacation list selection process has been completed. Floating work reduction days will be picked by seniority. When there are no available days remaining to be taken, shifts will be allowed to schedule a third person off, however, employees are not allowed to schedule a third person off on contractual holidays, Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. Employees hired between January 1st and June 30th will receive two floating work reduction days and employees hired between July 1st and November 1st will receive one work reduction day in that calendar year. Employees may trade their assigned work reduction days, after receiving the approval of their respective Battalion Chief or acting Battalion Chief, with employees on the same shift through a switch agreement. Switch agreement approvals are subject to the same rules and procedures established for "switch days" except Work Reduction Days must be traded in 24- hour shift segments. If switched, the Work Reduction Day will be considered that of the person originally scheduled to have the day off. Once a Work Reduction Day is changed, the Deputy Chief must authorize any further changes for that Work Reduction Day. Employees may also switch either assigned work reduction days or floating work reduction days to open days (1 shift employee or less scheduled off) on their assigned shift. Any work reduction day that is voluntarily switched by an employee out of their assigned cycle will be treated as a switch day and will not cause overtime to be paid to the employee.
