Training Weeks Sample Clauses

Training Weeks. Every training week, five (5) officers will be removed from the training shift schedule and designated to cover shifts for known fitness for duty fatigue exceedances (designated officers).

Designated officers will be advised a minimum of seven (7) days in advance of the shifts they will be required to work. Employees may exchange “designated” assignments, provided that the exchange does not result in additional overtime. Any exchanges must be coordinated with the Sergeant. Designated officers will be scheduled for a minimum of 32 hours from Sunday to Friday Day. Any hours worked above 32 hours will be paid at the appropriate overtime rate. Designated officers shall not be permitted to take vacation during their training week.
