SHIFT PICKS. Twice a year, approximately January 1, and July 1, the Employer shall permit employees to make known their preferences for shifts. Shift preferences shall begin December 1st and June 1st, being due by December 15th and June 15th respectively. A minimum of at least one week notification will be made prior to the commencement of new shifts, which transition would begin for all employees on beginning of the next pay period following January 1st and July 1st. Seniority shall govern such assignments providing the qualifications, including training, experience and ability of the employees involved, are relatively equal.
SHIFT PICKS. 28.1 Full-time Regular employees will be assigned a fixed shift with fixed days off. Employees shall pick the shift they work and the days off they receive, by classifica- tion, in order of seniority.
SHIFT PICKS. The Employer will target providing the Union Committee with all the department’s individual schedules including full-time and identified part-time shifts by August 15th of each year and the Union agrees to target completing the shift picks for all departments by October 3rd of each year. If for any reason the provision of the individual schedules to the Union is delayed then the completion date by the Union will be extended by the same period as the delay. As with 15.01, this shall not be construed as a guarantee of any minimum hours. The Union will hold a shift pick for each department. This will be done in September of each year. Once approved, this new schedule will take effect the first Friday of the new pay week after January 1 of the following year. The shift pick process will work in the following manner:
SHIFT PICKS. 15.01 Three (3) times per year (on the first Monday of January, May and September) or at other times as determined by the Employer after consultation with the Union, the Employer shall put all full- time fixed and full-time dial-a-ride bus routes up for bid for full-time employees effective after the October 2017 pick. Partial picks will be used to cover vacancies between established picks if the vacancy occurs forty-five (45) days or more before the next scheduled pick unless mutually agreed upon by the Union. Vacancies occurring less than forty-five (45) days before the next scheduled pick will be filled by vacancy fill driver(s) or the new full-time driver(s) who did not have full-time status at the time of the pick. The Employer reserves the right to deny an individual "pick" due to lack of skill and ability. Bus route selections shall be implemented on the fourth Monday of January, May and September.
SHIFT PICKS. The Employer will provide the Union Committee with shift schedules for full-time employees and part-time employees by department and classification which will include shifts for full-time and identified shifts for part-time employees. These shifts will then be picked by seniority by classification. The shift schedules will be provided to the Union by the first Wednesday in August of each year and the Union agrees to target completing the shift picks for all departments by the first Wednesday of October. Once completed this new schedule will take effect the first Wednesday following January 1 of the following year. This shall not be construed as a guarantee of any minimum hours, days off or shift start times. Employees in seniority order will select a shift schedule from those available. Employees who do not make a selection may have a shift schedule selected / assigned for them. Other schedules that come available following the shift bid will be posted as required in accordance with Article 20.05. Additional shift picks will be completed as needed when business changes that affect current shift picks.
SHIFT PICKS. In accordance with current practice, shift picks shall be done at least twice yearly in each department in order of seniority within each classification and shall be posted as either four tens (4-10’s) or five eights (5-8’s).
