Workload/Schedule Reduction Sample Clauses

The Workload/Schedule Reduction clause allows for the adjustment of an employee's assigned duties or scheduled hours, typically in response to changes in business needs, project requirements, or unforeseen circumstances. This clause outlines the conditions under which an employer may reduce the amount of work or shift schedules, such as during periods of decreased demand or operational restructuring. Its core practical function is to provide flexibility for employers to manage staffing levels efficiently while clarifying the process and expectations for affected employees.
Workload/Schedule Reduction. If, prior to initial schedule development, reductions of class offerings are required, unit members with employment preference rights shall be offered assignments in accordance with the process outlined in Section 2. If reduction of class offerings are required after the initial schedule development process outlined in Section 2, unit members with preference rights affected by the reductions shall not have bumping rights over unit members without preference rights.
