Work Schedule and Review. It is the intent of the University to provide employees, particularly those registered in an academic degree program, with the flexibility to manage both their academic and employment responsibilities, by minimizing the time that the work schedule is fixed. The supervisor must clearly identify the job expectations and deadlines. The employee must ensure that the work that is self-scheduled is performed within stated deadlines, and that any unanticipated problems regarding the work schedule and/or deadlines are communicated to the supervisor in a timely way. It is understood that the work schedule (particularly self-scheduled time), is only an approximation of the time required for completing the assigned duties, since the actual hours may be affected greatly by differences in the expertise and experience of the employee and even by the differences in style and approach to aspects of the work. The work assignments and schedule must be defined in writing no later than the fourth week of the term of appointment on a form (see sample in Appendix ‘E’) to be provided by the University through Human Resources. Both the employee and the supervisor will maintain a copy of the Work Schedule form. At or about the mid-point of the academic term, the employee and supervisor will review the work schedule to ensure that the required duties are consistent with the schedule defined above and that they may be completed within the schedule. This review will be documented on the Work Schedule form provided (see sample in Appendix ‘E’) It is in the interest of both the supervisor and the employee to complete a mid- term review of the work schedule in order to identify any unanticipated problems in the work schedule. If the total hours worked during the first half of the term is at variance with the approved schedule, then the schedule for the second half of the term should be adjusted accordingly. If, however, a supervisor proposes to add duties to the previously approved workload that will result in more hours worked requiring additional compensation, these hours must be mutually agreed upon by the employee and the supervisor, noted on the Work Schedule form, and approved by a higher level of authority in advance.
Work Schedule and Review a. The work schedule (days and times) must be defined in writing (on a form to be provided by Human Resources) and a copy maintained by both the employee and supervisor, at the beginning of the term. The employee and supervisor have a joint responsibility to monitor the work schedule and adjust it where required, subject to the limitations in this Article, and subject to the right to appeal under Article 14.02(c).
