Geological Survey Branch Sample Clauses

Geological Survey Branch. Recognizing the special need for a flexible approach to work schedules to successfully conduct the seasonal field work program of the Geological Survey Branch of the Ministry of Energy and Mines, (the prime directive), the parties agree that work schedules for the temporary field staff will be governed by the following. The daily hours of work for temporary field staff appointed for the Geological Survey Branch shall be shift schedule number three from the seasonal period portion of Table A (eight hours) except as provided for herein. The surplus time earned from the above agreement shall be banked to the end of the seasonal period. For each 14-day cycle, such employees shall work up to 10 days with four days of rest scheduled by the employee in consultation with the supervisor. The days of rest agreed to shall reflect the nature of the work assignment within the particular cycle. Up to 10 regular hours per day may be worked consistent with the prime directive of the work unit at the discretion of the employee with the surplus time scheduled as ETO by the employee in consultation with the supervisor within the cycle it is earned. In all cases, regular hours shall equal 80 in a 14-day cycle. On the basis of the foregoing, employees shall, in consultation with the supervisor, schedule daily hours of work, working days, and starting and finishing times. Time worked in excess of 10 hours per day, or 80 hours per cycle, or on a scheduled day of rest or on scheduled ETO shall be considered overtime, subject to Article 16—Overtime, of the Master Agreement. In order to provide the flexibility required for this program and to complete the required regular hours in each work cycle, Clause 7.2(b) shall not apply. The employee will keep a daily record of their hours and submit these to the supervisor at the end of the cycle.
