Common use of Schedule Exchanges Clause in Contracts

Schedule Exchanges. There are no restrictions on the number of uneven schedule exchanges a nurse can take with PTO provided that the replacement on the schedule is qualified to do the work. Even schedule exchanges must occur within a period of thirty (30) days. A schedule exchange is not allowed to result in the payment of premium or overtime pay, except when the nurse performs additional work assigned by the Agency after the schedule is posted and performed by the nurse following approval of the exchange. Uneven schedule exchanges can only be submitted after the schedule is posted, unless the request is needed to complete an otherwise approved PTO request for a block of four (4) scheduled days or more. The Agency may deny an uneven schedule exchange request only if the nurse making the request is not qualified, the exchange will result in overtime or premium pay, or the request is made within seven (7) calendar days of the requested exchange. 8.12.1 Nurses with an FTE appointment of 0.7 or above may take a maximum of five (5) uneven schedule exchanges (and no more than one (1) during a prime time period, unless the requested is needed to complete an otherwise approved PTO request for a block of four (4) scheduled days or more) without PTO use within a calendar year. All other uneven schedule exchanges, including all uneven schedule exchanges taken by regular nurses with less than a 0.7 FTE, shall be taken with PTO. 8.12.2 Schedule exchanges made for the purpose of conducting Agency business (committees, education/in-service, etc.) do not constitute uneven schedule exchanges. 8.12.3 There are no restrictions on a regular full-time nurse utilizing any other qualified nurse for an uneven schedule exchange to cover for any of the scheduled holidays specified in Section 9.4.5. Such uneven schedule exchanges shall not be counted toward the cap specified in Section 8.11.1.
