Early Outs Clause Samples

Early Outs. An Employee may request an “early out” for a particular shift enabling them to finish their shift prior to its rostered finishing time. An early out is leave without pay for all accrual and payment purposes. When an early out is granted by the Employer, the minimum hours of work as prescribed under this Agreement will not apply. The approval of any early outs will be at the discretion of the Employer.

Early Outs. An early out list will be created on a first request basis. Employees requesting early out must notify the Employer on the early out list no earlier than 15 minutes before the start of their shift. Employees can add their name to the posted early out list at any time during their shift. However, employees on the early out list will be offered early outs based on various factors, operational requirements, skills, start times and costs. In an overtime situation, the most senior employee will be offered the early out first even before the employee who requested the early out first.

Early Outs. Where the Employer determines that the operational requirements can be met with less staff, the Employer will use the following process: (a) The Employer will first send home employees, in that classification working overtime, in order of reverse seniority. (b) The Employer will then select volunteers to go home. Employees may volunteer by placing their name on the early out list at any time during the shift. (c) If after (a) and (b) there are still excessive staff, the Employer may require employees to end their shifts early, meaning prior to the end of their scheduled shifts. The distribution of forced early outs will be by reverse seniority in the applicable classification(s), except where operational requirements cannot be met with the remaining scheduled staff, in which case the Employer can select employees for early outs that will maintain operational requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employer shall not use forced early outs where it will necessarily result in overtime for remaining staff in the applicable classification(s). In all circumstances the Employer will ensure that remaining employees having the skill and ability to fulfill the remaining duties and any employee who is forced to early out under this article will be paid the minimum of three (3) hours or the hours actually worked, whichever is greater.

In such cases, the Employer will select among the list of volunteers, prepared at the beginning of each shift by department, based on departmental policy. Team Members who are selected for Early Out are paid only for actual time worked on that day. For the purpose of determining eligibility for benefits, a Team Member who is selected for Early Out pursuant to this Section will only have the hours he actually worked count toward his benefits eligibility.
