ARTICLE 7. WORK SCHEDULE 7.1 The sole authority for work schedules is the CITY. The normal workday for an EMPLOYEE shall be eight (8) hours, and the normal workweek shall be forty (40) hours. The normal work shift for the EMPLOYEES will be 7:00 am to 3:30 pm, Monday through Friday. Hours per day and days of the week may be varied if mutually agreed between the CITY and the EMPLOYEE. The CITY will not prevent the EMPLOYEE from working up to 80 hours in any given payroll period, except with two weeks advanced notice. The EMPLOYEES may collectively suggest alternatives for proposed reductions in hours. 7.2 Service to the public may require the establishment of regular shifts for some EMPLOYEES on a daily, weekly, seasonal or annual basis other than the normal workshift. The CITY will give seven (7) calendar days advance notice to the EMPLOYEES affected by the establishment of workdays different from the EMPLOYEES normal workshift. EMPLOYEES performing community center custodial duties may have their start time altered with twenty-four (24) hours notice. 7.3 In the event that work is required outside of the normal workday hours because of unusual circumstances such as (but not limited to) fire, flood, snow, sleet, or breakdown of municipal equipment or facilities, no advance notice need be given. It is not required that an EMPLOYEE working other than the normal work day be scheduled to work more than eight (8) hours, however, each EMPLOYEE has an obligation to work overtime or call backs if requested unless unusual circumstances prevent the EMPLOYEE from so working. 7.4 Service to the public may require the establishment of regular workweeks that schedule work on Saturdays and/or Sundays. 7.5 EMPLOYEES who are called in to work prior to the starting time of the shift regularly assigned, due to, but not limited to, performing snow and ice control operations, or due to utility emergencies, weather emergencies, or a cargo spill that creates a hazard, shall be compensated at a preshift premium of $7.00 per hour for the preshift hours worked not to exceed $28.00 per event. When an EMPLOYEE qualifies for both overtime/comp time and preshift premium on the same shift, each hour of preshift pay earned will be eliminated for each hour of overtime/comp time earned. An EMPLOYEE called in to work early shall be afforded the right to work until the end of the EMPLOYEE'S otherwise normal shift not to exceed twelve (12) hours without supervisor approval. • 5
