Daily Maximization. The parties have a shared interest in providing an opportunity for employees to access more hours of work. The Employer shall identify and schedule the longest shifts. These shifts shall be assigned to employees by seniority on a daily basis. In the interest of creating stability towards the bottom of the schedule the parties have agreed that, effective Sunday after ratification 2018, employees with less than twelve (12) months seniority shall be scheduled in accordance with section 9.01(5). It is understood that the employee shall assume his or her responsibility in notifying or in reporting any violation of the seniority Clause in the allocation of hours at the earliest possible time. Any monetary adjustment or compensation arising from incorrect scheduling shall not be paid retroactively for a period greater than two (2) weeks prior to the time the Grievance was first lodged. The Employer will endeavor to maximize the number of hours scheduled for part-time employees in accordance with their seniority and the Collective Agreement, provided they are available and can perform the work and provided they have not restricted their availability. The foregoing does not imply an obligation to schedule more hours in any classification than the Employer has determined are necessary. Scheduling of Overlapping and Abutting Shifts Where it can be shown that overlapping and abutting shifts have been scheduled to deny senior employees available hours, this shall be discussed between the parties. Where a disagreement arises under this Subsection and results in a Grievance, the parties will have two (2) weeks from the date the matter is brought to the attention of the Employer to correct any errors in scheduling before a claim for lost wages can be filed.
