Common use of Workweek and Work Schedules Clause in Contracts

Workweek and Work Schedules. The workweek is defined as a fixed and regularly reoccurring period of seven (7) consecutive twenty-four (24) hour periods. Workweeks shall be established for each employee. Where no specific workweek has been established for an employee, the default workweek shall be from 12:01 a.m. Sunday to midnight Saturday. Work schedules are the workdays, days off, and hours of work identified within the employee’s workweek. Within the workweek, the normal work schedule for regular full time employees is forty (40) hours. However, the City makes no guarantee of a forty (40) hour work schedule. As far as practicable, this work schedule conforms with established hours of business. This conformity shall not interfere with special time schedules governing departments operating more than eight (8) hours each calendar day. Nor shall this provision be construed as prohibiting part time employment, rotating, staggered, or shortened work periods, alternative work schedules, flexible work schedules, or shift work for continuous operations. It is understood that the City will not make major changes in current practice with respect to scheduling of workweeks without consulting with the affected employees and the Union with the intent of accommodating the desires of affected employees to the extent such accommodation is consistent with operational requirements.
