School Schedules. The Employer and Union share a joint commitment to encourage the development and educational advancement of employees. The Employer and Union also share a joint commitment to ensure the Company’s staffing and operational needs continue to be met when school schedules are considered. As such, employees who request consideration of a school schedule are asked to provide as much advance notice as possible to their Department Administrator. Employees making such requests will be required to submit a certified or official copy of their current school schedule to the Department Administrator. Any requests for consideration of changes in school schedules (e.g., based on quarterly or semester schedule changes) are to be submitted to the Department Administrator in the same manner. Each request for a school schedule will be considered on an individual or case-by- case basis and approval of school schedules is not guaranteed but rather, contingent upon the Company’s ability to continue to meet operational and staffing needs.
