An employee working a combination of 4 hour, 8 hour and 12 hour shifts shall not work
more than seven scheduled or unscheduled consecutive shifts. If an employee is
requested to work more than the stipulated number of consecutive shifts, the employee
shall be paid at the rate of time and one-­‐half (1½) the regular hourly rate for each
consecutive shift worked, notwithstanding Clauses 22.03 and 23.03 (premium payment
and payment for working on a holiday) of the collective agreement.
There shall be at least eight (8) consecutive hours off between shifts. Failure to provide
such time off will result in pay at the rate of time and one-­‐half (1½) regular hourly rate
for the employee's next shift. This will not apply when an employee has a change in the
start time for a shift.
Where schedule change is proposed by the Union for a designated base, the Employer
may consider the change if the full-­‐time and part-­‐time employees at that base have
voted with a 75% approval vote of the change.
Any problems or disputes arising from the required changes to implement the new
schedule will not be the subject of a grievance but will be discussed and resolved by the
parties.
Employees will be allowed a six (6) month trial period in their proposed schedule. At the
end of the trial period, another vote will take place requiring a 75% majority approval to
keep the schedule. The proposed schedule may be terminated at any time during the
trial period if deemed unsatisfactory by the Employer or (75%) of the employees
affected.
It is understood that the Employer has the final approval.
