Requesting Time Off. Employees are permitted to request time off or alter hours of work for personal reasons. Requests are to be in writing and employees are to exercise best efforts to provide such a request seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the scheduled shift. Requests for time off are to be approved subject to business needs and are not to be unreasonably denied.
Requesting Time Off. Employees desiring to be absent from duty on any day or days other than regular assigned non-working days, must notify the Company in writing, not later than seven (7) days prior to the date requested. The Company will approve or deny the above, in writing, within ten (10) days of request submission. This provision will not be applicable when employees are unable to give notice of intended absence due to illness. In the event an employee needs time off and is unable to notify the Company seven (7) days in advance as outlined above, the Company will make every possible effort to grant the employee’s request whenever possible.

In the event of an unforeseen absence, the employee shall contact their immediate supervisor or representative as directed by the Department Director within 30 minutes of the start of their normal scheduled shift. If a regular employee requests specific days off at least six weeks in advance, and if that request is otherwise proper under this Article, that time shall be considered locked and cannot be displaced by a non-regular employee seeking to take the same time off.

Employee's request must be approved by the shift supervisor's signature before it can be taken. Requests for this time off will be granted on a first requested basis. Requests will be approved by the shift supervisor as long as no disruption of work will occur, minimum staffing needs are met, and no special circumstances exist for workforce needs. Approval should be given as soon as possible but may be withheld if any of the preceding conditions are uncertain. Approval or denial should occur no later than 120 hours from the start the time requested off begins. If approval is given for the request and that employee should later be ordered into work, the employee will be paid at one and one half his rate of pay for all hours worked. The time requested and then not taken off will not be deducted from the employee.

Requesting Time Off. Following the UNISON AGM (normally held in February each year), the Branch Secretary will inform the Director of HR in writing of the names of those elected to each position and confirm who will be attending UNISON conferences in the coming year. UNISON will also notify HR of any subsequent changes made to the list of representatives during the course of the year. Procedure for requesting time off for trade union duties The Open University does not expect UNISON to request time off formally through Human Resources for representatives to carry out their trade union duties (section 3) (except for ‘additional approved meetings’). However, there is a requirement that representatives request and agree time off in advance with their line manager. Any requests for time off should be made with as much notice as is reasonable in the circumstances. Agreement to time off will not unreasonably be withheld, but the operational needs of the Unit will be taken into account when considering requests. Procedure for requesting time off for trade union activities and training The following procedure applies to requests for time off for UNISON members and representatives to pursue their activities (section 4) and for representatives to undergo relevant training (section 6). Throughout the course of the year the Branch Secretary will request time off for representatives and members in line with this agreement by sending a written request to the Director of HR. This should include the timing and duration of time off requested (including travel time where applicable), the purpose, and the intended location. In addition, requests for time off for training should include details of the content of the training. HR will consider the circumstances of the request and, if supported, consult with the relevant Unit to determine if the time off can be agreed. At the same time, each request for time off should be made by individual UNISON representatives and members to their line managers indicating the reason for which the time is requested. Requests for time off should be made with as much notice as is reasonable in the circumstances - in general, four weeks notice should be given. Agreement to time off will not unreasonably be withheld, but the operational needs of the Unit will be taken into account. Individual dates may be refused, or have to be rescheduled, for operational reasons. The Branch Secretary will be informed of the reasons for any refusal. Resolution of disputes about time...
