Work Schedules, Vacation and Holiday Schedules. (A) When regular work schedules are changed, employees’ normal work schedules, showing each employee’s shift, workdays, and hours, will be posted no less than 14 calendar days in advance, and will reflect at least a two workweek schedule; however, the state will make a good faith effort to reflect a one month schedule. In the event an employee’s shift, workdays or hours are changed while the employee is on approved leave, the agency will make a good faith effort to notify the employee of the change at his home. With prior written notification of at least three workdays to the employee’s immediate supervisor, employees may agree to exchange days or shifts on a temporary basis. If the immediate supervisor objects to the exchange of workdays or shifts, the employee initiating the notification shall be advised that the exchange is disapproved.
