TEMPORARY FILLING OF BARGAINING UNIT POSITIONS Sample Clauses
The "Temporary Filling of Bargaining Unit Positions" clause outlines the procedures for assigning employees to fill positions within a bargaining unit on a temporary basis. Typically, this clause specifies the conditions under which temporary appointments can be made, such as during leaves of absence, vacations, or while a position is vacant pending a permanent hire. It may also detail the selection process, duration limits, and any pay adjustments for employees temporarily filling these roles. The core function of this clause is to ensure continuity of operations while maintaining fairness and transparency in how temporary assignments are handled within the bargaining unit.

TEMPORARY FILLING OF BARGAINING UNIT POSITIONS. When a bargaining unit position is going to be open for more than two (2) weeks, but not more than five (5) months, due to an approved leave or a position vacancy, other than scheduled vacation/compensatory time/department training, a temporary employee may be hired by the Department to fill the opening for this period. Each temporary position will only be filled by the retired bargaining unit member who created the vacancy. The City shall be responsible for giving written notification to the Union of its intent to utilize a temporary employee and any changes in that person’s employment status. These employees shall not accrue benefits under this Agreement during their employment, except as required by law. If it is deemed to be a benefit to the City and the Union, the parties may, by mutual agreement, extend this temporary period beyond the five (5) months. Extensions granted under this section shall not cause the temporary employee to become eligible for benefits under this Agreement, except as required by law. It is further agreed that these employees shall meet the standards set by the State of Oregon and the Albany Fire Department for the classification of their employment. The temporary employee will not be eligible for scheduled overtime, including call shifts and/or partial shifts. Shift extension and emergency callback are the exceptions to this rule. The temporary employee will only fill the rank/position from which they just retired.
