Common use of Flex Hours Clause in Contracts

Flex Hours. The County and SEIU shall negotiate, on request, flex time schedules on a department by department basis. Such negotiations shall be conducted between SEIU and the County's designated negotiator. The County and SEIU agree that when a written request for flexible work schedules is denied, the Appointing Authority or designee shall respond to the request in writing (within 14 days) stating the reasons for the denial. Flex time schedules are those alternate work schedules, including but not limited to a "4-10" plan or a "9-80" plan, which do not violate the Fair Labor Standards Act or Section 5.3. of this memorandum, unless otherwise agreed by the parties. No flex schedule arrangement shall be implemented until the County and SEIU adopt a memorandum of understanding specifically setting forth provisions of the schedule with respect to overtime, holiday, sick leave and other affected benefits.
