Common use of Regular Work Schedule Clause in Contracts

Regular Work Schedule. The regular schedule for regular full-time employees shall consist of five (5) consecutive eight (8) hour days in a workweek with two (2) consecutive days off between regular work weeks. Based on specific bona fide operational needs, the City may assign a work schedule that has a break in consecutive hours or days. If an assignment to a non-consecutive work schedule becomes necessary, the affected employee(s) shall meet with their supervisor and may suggest alternatives. Once the work schedule change is made, employees will be given an opportunity to bid for the schedule based on their seniority. The parties have adopted this provision for the purpose of encouraging full-time employment while accommodating the operational needs of the City. However, this Section is not intended to create any obligation of the City to guarantee any level of work hours or days.
