Common use of Head Clerk Clause in Contracts

Head Clerk. A Head Clerk is a non-supervisory employee who in a d d itio n to his duties as a Regular Clerk, performs one or more of the following duties: 1. Conducts the operation of the store in the tempo­ ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇ sen ce of the Supervisory Store Manager, Managing Clerk or owner, or is responsible for the opening or closing of a store. 2. Is in charge of the produce department, section or area. 3. Has the authority and responsibility of buying or selecting merchandise for a department, section or area, or directs other employees in the performance of their duties in such department, section or area. It is understood that the Employer may so arrange the employee’s duties and work shifts in order that the num­ ber of Head Clerks may be minimized, and further that the mere occasional or incidental performance of any of the Head Clerk’ s duties shall not be construed as a basis for classifying any employee as Head Clerk. It is agreed, however, that in the absence of the Supervisory Store Manager, Managing Clerk or the owner, there shall be at least one (1) Head Clerk on the job at all times. When a clerk, who is not normally classified and paid as a Head Clerk on a weekly basis, performs the duties of a Head Clerk on a day in which either the regular Head Clerk, Supervisory Manager, Managing Clerk or owner is absent, he shall receive the Head Clerk’ s rate of pay for the day.
