Workload Averaging Sample Clauses
The Workload Averaging clause establishes a method for distributing an employee's or contractor's workload evenly over a specified period, rather than requiring strict adherence to daily or weekly hour limits. In practice, this means that the total number of hours worked can be averaged across a set timeframe—such as a month or a project duration—allowing for flexibility in scheduling and accommodating periods of higher or lower demand. This clause is particularly useful for managing fluctuating workloads, ensuring that both parties have clarity on expectations and reducing the risk of disputes over overtime or underperformance.
Workload Averaging i. The average teaching load is determined over an entire academic year; eighteen (18) hours of instruction per week in one semester and fourteen (14) in the other, for example, constitute an average teaching load of sixteen (16) hours for classroom related instructors.
ii. In exceptional circumstances a regular faculty member may request to average the teaching workload over a longer period. In these circumstances, the faculty member shall submit a plan, in writing, regarding accountable and vacation time to the appropriate Chair/Coordinator and Responsible Administrator for approval. Notwithstanding Article 17.02.b and 17.02.c, plans may provide for a carryover of up to forty-two (42) professional development days and eighty- four (84) vacation days. To facilitate these situations, the distribution of work, as per Articles 6.06 and 6.07, does not apply. A copy of each approved plan will be forwarded to the Association.
