Overtime Scheduling Provisions of this language is supplemented by the National Agreement as long as the National Agreement is in effect. See Exhibit, 1.H.3 “Mandatory Overtime Documents.” 907 Scheduled overtime shall be offered by classification seniority within the licensed pharmacy. Unscheduled overtime shall be offered by classification seniority to those employees present when the need for overtime arises. Unclaimed overtime whether scheduled or unscheduled, before being assigned to the least senior employee(s) within a classification who shall be required to work the overtime, will first be offered by bargaining unit seniority to any member of the bargaining unit within the licensed pharmacy who can perform the work. 908 Job Posting 909 Notices of all job openings within the bargaining unit shall be posted by the Employer by the usual and customary job posting process. The job posting notice may include special qualifications for the classification, and will be posted concurrently internally and externally for a minimum of seven (7) calendar days with the exact beginning and ending posting date. 910 Bidding on Posted Openings 911 After completion of an initial probationary period of at least ninety (90) calendar days in a position, employees shall be allowed to electronically submit a request through the Employer’s usual and customary job bidding process for posted jobs for posted jobs in higher-rated or lateral classifications available within their Area Pharmacy Operation. Where two (2) or more employees have submitted requests for the same job, seniority, as defined in Paragraphs 902 and 912, shall prevail where qualifications to perform the work of the new job are relatively equal. Where the seniority of two (2) or more employees bidding for the job opening is the same, the date of the individual employee’s original employment application shall be used to determine the senior employee. If an issue of seniority remains, representatives of the parties will meet to resolve the matter. An employee may be denied an opening regardless of seniority, if said employee has a current Final Warning in file. 912 Seniority for bidding on any posted opening within the bargaining unit shall prevail first by classification seniority within the Area Pharmacy Operation where openings exist, then to employees by bargaining unit seniority within the Area Pharmacy Operations. Thereafter, employees by classification seniority at any licensed pharmacy within the Southern California Region and finally employees by bargaining unit seniority at any licensed pharmacy within the Southern California Region will be considered for any posted opening provided a request form is on file with the Area Personnel Office prior to the end of the posting period. Employees who successfully bid on a posted position shall not be unreasonably delayed in assuming the new position. 913 Employees who move to a posted opening shall have a trial period of not less than ninety (90) calendar days. During such ninety (90) day trial period, the employee shall be given thorough instruction and proper orientation in the new work and shall be given an evaluation by the Employer between the fortieth (40th) and fiftieth (50th) day from the date in the new position. After such trial period, if the employee is unable to perform the duties of the new position satisfactorily said employee will be restored to the position immediately held prior to the new position without discrimination. During the trial period, an employee may be restored to their former position where it is determined that clear and present danger exists by allowing said employee to remain in the new position. An employee who is voluntarily reassigned pursuant to Article IX shall have seven (7) calendar days to change their mind and upon written request, shall be returned to their former position. This right shall be available only once during the term of the agreement. If additional circumstances occur, the Union and the Company will meet and confer. 914 For bidding and reduction in force purposes only, the Antelope Valley pharmacy locations will be considered as an Area Pharmacy Operation. 915 Temporary Position 916 If a position opens on a temporary basis, it will be treated as any job opening for bidding purposes. When a temporary position ceases to exist, the employee holding the position will return to his or her former job and employees displaced as a consequence can similarly return to their former position. If a temporary position becomes permanent, it must be posted as a permanent job. Employees awarded a temporary position will not accumulate classification seniority and will not have area seniority while assigned to said position, but will retain and continue to accumulate classification seniority and will maintain area seniority on his or her permanent position. 917 Reduction in Force 918 Where inconsistent this language is supplemented by the National Employment Income Security Agreement as long as the National Agreement is in effect. 919 Reduction in force will be accomplished by classification and status within each licensed pharmacy.

Alternative Work Schedule An alternate forty (40) hour work schedule (other than five (5) uniform and consecutive eight (8) hour days in a seven (7) day period), or for hospital personnel an eighty (80) hour workweek in a fourteen (14) day period and other mutually agreed upon schedules that comply with applicable federal and state law. Employee work schedules normally include two (2) consecutive days off.
– HOURS OF WORK & SCHEDULING 15.01 The normal hours of work for an employee are not a guarantee of work per day or per week, or a guarantee of days of work per week. The normal hours of work shall be seven and one-half (7½) hours per day, and seventy-five (75) hours in any bi-weekly period.
15.02 The normal daily shift shall consist of seven and one-half (7½) consecutive hours, exclusive of a one-half (½) hour unpaid meal period. Employees shall be entitled to a fifteen (15) minute paid break during each half of the normal daily shift, at a time designated by the Employer.
15.03 Employees required for reporting purposes shall remain at work for a period of up to fifteen (15) minutes which shall be unpaid. Should the reporting time extend beyond fifteen (15) minutes however, the entire period shall be considered overtime for the purposes of payment.
15.04 Requests for change in posted work schedules must be submitted in writing and co-signed by the employee willing to exchange days off or shifts and are subject to the discretion of the Administrator or her designate. In any event, it is understood that such a change initiated by the employee and approved by the Employer shall not result in overtime compensation or payment or any other claims on the Employer by any employee under the terms of this Agreement.
15.05 Where there is a change to Daylight Savings from Standard Time or vice-versa, an employee who is scheduled and works a full shift shall be paid for a seven and one-half (7½) hour shift rather than the actual hours worked.
15.06 In the event that a meal period is interrupted requiring an employee to attend to a work related problem, then the balance of the unused meal period will be taken within two (2) hours of the interruption. If the employee is unable to reschedule such time, she shall be paid time and one-half (1½) her regular straight time hourly rate for all time worked in excess of her normal daily hours, in accordance with Article 16.01.
