AFSCME Contract - MMB Home - Minnesota Management & Budget

Work Period:
Your supervisor may temporarily change your schedule for training, staff development,
informational meetings, team meetings, and special projects.
Your supervisor must give you at least twenty-eight (28) days notice before permanently changing
your scheduling pattern.
Shifts Between Days Off: Your supervisor will not schedule you to work more than two (2) shifts
and/or two (2) shift changes between scheduled days off.
For this subsection only, a scheduled shift with a starting time within two (2) hours of the starting
time of the first scheduled shift after scheduled days off is considered the same shift. When there
is a scheduled shift rotation, a change of no more than two (2) hours from the starting time of the
scheduled shift is not considered a change in shift.
Shift Change
St. Peter only:
If your posted shift is changed to cover ECT appointments, and the change is not two (2) hours or
more, you will be considered to be on a shift change and be eligible for shift differential for that
entire shift. You are not eligible for call-in pay for that shift.
Part-Time Hours
Article 5, Section 4 of the Master Agreement is changed as follows:
Moose Lake and St. Peter only:
If additional coverage is needed within the posting period and that work cannot be performed by
previously scheduled employees (i.e., temporary reassignment), your supervisor will first offer the
work to part-time employees using the voluntary overtime distribution procedure. If you accept the
hours, you are not eligible for “penalty pay”.
You are not eligible for the work if it would cause overtime according to the Fair Labor Standards
Act.
If no one eligible accepts the work, your supervisor may assign the hours to other employees (e.g.,
intermittent, non-bargaining unit, or overtime. This list is not inclusive).
Any hours you are assigned beyond the fourteen (14) day posting period are not covered by these
provisions.
If you are assigned work as overtime, you are eligible for overtime pay.
Fixed Night Shift: All night shifts are fixed. When a night shift position becomes vacant,
Management must post it for bids. If no one successfully bids on the position, Management may
recruit and hire to fill the vacancy or reassign the person with the least State Seniority who is
capable and qualified but not on a fixed night schedule.
