HEALTH SCIENCES ASSOCIATION OF ALBERTA

RE:  ALTERNATE WORK SCHEDULES
 

The parties agree that in some circumstances, where resident care requirements are primary considerations and Employee flexibility is needed, Alternate Work Schedules can be beneficial for all parties.

In the event that an Employee desires to request a change in their scheduled hours of work on an ongoing basis, the Employee will make the request in writing and the Union shall be notified.  The Employer will review the request and respond in writing within four (4) weeks from the time of receipt of the Employee’s written request.

Where it is operationally feasible for the Employer to agree to this modification of work schedule or hours, the Employer and the Union will meet to discuss the process of implementation and any other processes to be used to address the issues. 

Any changes requested must be cost neutral.

Alternate Work Schedules will be reviewed periodically by the parties.  Written notification of four (4) weeks will be required by either party to terminate the Alternate Work Schedule.
