Summer Assignment Bidding Sample Clauses
The Summer Assignment Bidding clause establishes the process by which employees can express their preferences or submit bids for summer work assignments. Typically, this clause outlines the eligibility criteria, the timeline for submitting bids, and the method by which assignments are awarded—often based on factors such as seniority, qualifications, or past performance. Its core function is to ensure a fair and transparent allocation of summer assignments, reducing disputes and promoting equitable opportunities among eligible staff.
Summer Assignment Bidding. 1. The list of biddable summer assignments will be posted as soon as possible prior to the end of the regular school year. This list will be posted for forty–eight (48) hours during which time drivers with seniority may bid on these assignments. This posting will include the expected length and duration of each summer assignment. Experienced Substitutes will bid on summer substitute assignments first in seniority order. If there are remaining substitute assignments, they will then be bid along with other summer routes. Experienced substitutes will receive their experience substitute rate of pay. The most senior employee bidding will have preference and so on, provided that employee has the current qualifications and ability to do all the required work including special requirements to assist special needs riders on the preferred route.
2. A list of drivers with seniority who requested but did not receive a bid summer assignment shall be maintained. Open assignments, including any daily substitutions during the summer period will be offered to the drivers on that list in seniority order.
3. Only regular non-probationary drivers who are at zero (0) or above in the no-fault attendance policy shall be eligible to bid on summer assignments.
4. During summer recess, field trips will be offered in seniority order to all summer route bid holders. In the event no driver bids on the extra assignment, an emergency list will be used following the same procedure that applies during the regular school year. Should no driver be available from the emergency list, the extra assignment will be assigned in inverse seniority order among the summer route bid holders. The assigned driver shall be allowed to be replaced by another summer route bid holder if this arrangement is mutually agreeable to the assigned driver and the replacing driver and the district.
