Common use of Overtime and Personal Time Off Clause in Contracts

Overtime and Personal Time Off. (a) It is accepted that a worker may, from time to time, require personal time off from work to deal with personal matters. In order to facilitate this, a worker will accumulate one-half shift (either four hours on an eight hour shift or five hours on a ten hour shift) of unpaid personal absence allowance for each month (30 calendar days) worked up to a maximum accumulation of two full shifts. An initial one-half shift allowance will be credited upon the start of employment with additional units of one-half shift credited in the months worked subsequently, up to the maximum allowance of two shifts. A worker may request that they be preauthorized to take a personal unpaid absence providing they give a minimum of seven calendar days advance notice of their request to their authorized company representative. Where it is not practical to provide seven calendar days notice the worker must provide as much notice as they are capable of, it being understood that less notice may make it more difficult to accommodate a request for time off. Requests for time off that meet the above conditions will not be unreasonably denied subject to operational requirements.
