Emergency Commitments Clause Samples

Emergency Commitments. Operators may be assigned out of rotational or seniority order or reassigned from one assignment to another assignment in order to fill emergency commitments. Emergency commitments are those assignments which require specialized training or equipment; unavailability of Extra Board or off-day operators to perform the assignment, or other last minute commitments which cannot be delayed. In this connection, the Authority will assign the first available operator to the work. In all such cases, the Authority will provide the Union with verbal explanation of the reason for the emergency followed by a written explanation which shall be forwarded as soon as possible, but not later than three (3) work days following such event.
