Shift Balancing Sample Clauses
The Shift Balancing clause establishes rules for distributing work shifts among employees to ensure fairness and operational efficiency. Typically, it outlines how shifts are assigned, rotated, or swapped, and may set limits to prevent overburdening certain staff or to accommodate employee preferences when possible. This clause helps prevent scheduling conflicts and employee fatigue, promoting a balanced workload and reducing disputes over shift assignments.
Shift Balancing a. If at the end of three posting periods there is a need to balance shifts, the following steps will be taken:
i. Firefighters who have completed probation who do not have a bid position will be moved to balance the shift.
ii. If there remains a need to balance the least senior firefighter with a bid position on shift who has completed probation will be moved to balance the shift.
b. With 30 days advanced written notice, the Chief will be allowed a maximum of two shift bid equalizations per calendar year if the disparity of 4 or more employees exists, and is caused by something other than temporary promotions, leaves of absence under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) or other approved leaves of absences, or when members are in a light duty status. Vacation and compensatory time approved prior to shift balancing, shall be honored.

Shift Balancing. A normal schedule results in an average of 10 shifts over and above 2080 hours. To account for this over scheduling, any overtime earned as a result of these excess shifts will be paid out at time and one half (1.5) at the completion of the calendar year, to a maximum of ten (10), to be paid on the 2nd pay period of the subsequent year. New hire pilots (within the calendar year) will have their shifts pro-rated based on the first day of operational shift coverage.
