Article 12, Hours of Work and Overtime Clause Samples

Article 12, Hours of Work and Overtime. This paragraph, which deals with shift scheduling in cases where the Employer decides to change a department’s hours of operation, is not intended to reduce the ability of the Employer to operate efficiently and effectively, does not restrict the Employer from changing hours of operation or from establishing new shift schedules, is not a guarantee for senior personnel of forty (40) hours or other customary shifts assignments and does not require shortened shift scheduling to be accomplished in inverse order of seniority. Within these constraints, it does reflect the Employer’s commitment consonant with its business needs, to use its best efforts to enhance work opportunities for senior personnel when short shift schedules are implemented.
