Flexible Hours Arrangement Clause Samples
A Flexible Hours Arrangement clause allows employees and employers to agree on work schedules that differ from traditional fixed hours. This clause typically outlines the process for requesting flexible hours, such as staggered start and end times or compressed workweeks, and may specify any conditions or limitations, like core hours when presence is required. Its core function is to provide adaptability in work schedules, helping to accommodate personal needs or operational demands while maintaining productivity and clarity in expectations.
Flexible Hours Arrangement.
(a) The flexible hours arrangement provides staff (excluding shift workers) and the University flexibility to achieve a better balance between the personal lives and working times of staff, while giving priority to the University’s operational needs and the maintenance of acceptable workflows.
(b) The flexible hours arrangement allows for staff to accrue time as ‘flex-time’, on an hour for hour basis, that can then be taken as time off work without loss of pay at a later date. Accumulated credit time is calculated over a four week work cycle, normally to a maximum of fourteen hours and thirty minutes, and the maximum carry over between the four week work cycle will normally be ten hours. Staff cannot accumulate flex-time unless work is available to be performed during the four week cycle and the work is actually performed. Supervisors will not unreasonably refuse a request for a flexible hours arrangement.
(c) The flexible hours arrangement is available to all Professional staff excluding casual staff and staff employed on a shift basis. The flexible hours arrangement may be worked in lieu of the ordinary hours of work provided for in Clause 4.2.
Flexible Hours Arrangement. 10.6.1 In conjunction with, or in addition to any rostered start, a part-time team member may be offered additional hours on a voluntary basis, provided that such additional hours shall be offered:
(a) in accordance with the relevant roster principles;
(b) on the basis that the additional hours worked will be ordinary hours worked for the purpose of all leave entitlements; and
(c) Such hours are worked on a voluntary basis and are paid at the Ordinary Hourly Rate as defined in clause 3.1.10 plus any penalty applicable as prescribed in clause 10.2 or 24.3.1.
10.6.2 Decreasing agreed core hours:
(a) A part time team member’s core hours may be reduced due to the operational need of the Company, by up to a maximum of 20% per anniversary year provided that:
(i) two (2) weeks’ notice of such reduction is given to the team member concerned; and
(ii) hours are not reduced below twenty-four (24) hours over a four (4) week cycle.
(iii) Where additional permanent hours become available in the work locations at the time where a team member who had his/her previous hours worked reduced, then that team member will have preference ahead of team members who had no reduction in hours and new team members, to the additional hours of work.
Flexible Hours Arrangement. The normal hours of work may by mutual agreement be varied to meet the operational needs of the council. Operational needs may include but are not limited to special projects, seasonal work, peak work periods and urgent completion of work. The following flexible arrangements are to apply: • Time to be worked within the hours of 6.00 am to 6.00 pm Monday to Friday (exclusive of public holidays); • Up to ninety four (94) hours in a two week work cycle [that is eighteen (18) hours per fortnight above the ordinary seventy six (76) hours]; • No more than ten point five (10.50) hours per day [that is two hours above the normal eight point five (8.50) hours];
