APPENDIX T - SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS
DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATION
Article 1
Hours of Work
Article 5 of the Master Agreement shall be modified as follows:
Plant Management:
Schedule changes for General Maintenance Workers in Building Services which result in
employees reporting to work earlier than their usual shift; e.g., employees who are scheduled to
work second shift coming in during day shift hours, shall require a three (3) day notice only.
Employees shall be selected for such schedule changes on the basis of most senior qualified
within the work area.
The Appointing Authority and Local Union may mutually agree to flextime scheduling plans where
appropriate.
Summer Schedules:
On an annual basis, the Appointing Authority may decide to establish a summer schedule for
Grounds Services. The schedule shall be posted at least fourteen (14) days in advance of the
effective date.
Article 2
Overtime Distribution
Article 6, Section 4 of the Master Agreement shall be modified as follows:
Plant Management:
When it is necessary for Groundskeepers to be trained on snow removal equipment, overtime may
be assigned out of order.
Overtime distribution for General Maintenance Workers assigned to building services shall be as
follows:
1. An effort shall be made to distribute overtime work as equally as possible among all General
Maintenance Worker building services employees in all work areas within the Capitol Complex
who are capable of performing the work and who desire the overtime work. The employee's
shift and supervisor shall not be taken into consideration in the equal distribution of overtime.
2. This overtime distribution does not apply to extensions of the same shift, except as noted in 3
below or emergency situations. Extension of shift(s) shall be offered to the most Senior
General Maintenance Worker assigned to the work area. If no General Maintenance Worker
accepts the extension of shift, the Appointing Authority shall assign the overtime based upon
inverse order of seniority. For emergency situations, the Appointing Authority shall make a
reasonable effort to distribute the overtime the same as the shift extension. Overtime earned
as an extension of the same shift or emergency situations shall not be counted as overtime
worked for the purposes of equal distribution.
