Scheduling requirements:

· Available to workdifferent shifts and willing to work non-standard hours, holidays, and weekends.

· Regular and punctual attendance is required.

· For those working the float shift, the hours are subject to change at any time. If weekend schedules are going to be worked for other operators with pre-planned time off, the floater needs to adjust their weekday hours to finish off with a 40-hour work week if possible. 30-minute lunches are built into the normal schedule, with the exception of the days that you are covering a shift by yourself.

· Day shift (6 am to 6 pm) / Night shift (6 pm to 6 am)

· No swapping or schedule changes are allowed under any circumstances outside of scheduled or emergency time off.

· If the float shift is unavailable at any time due to staffing shortages in the future, day or night shift operators will resume the normal 12-hour shift on Tuesday.

· In the event a shift cannot be worked based on pre-planned time off or sick with a doctor’s excuse, it is the alternating person at the same plant and on the same day or night shift that is required to cover.

· If the alternating person cannot cover (based on a legitimate excuse), the floater must cover for them.

· Personal day-to-day activities are not legitimate excuses. Legitimate excuses are pre-planned time off (minimum three weeks’ notice) that has been marked on a calendar, sick with a doctor’s excuse, or a qualifying family emergency.

· Unplanned time can be taken as long as it is not repetitive, more than 2 days consecutive, and another operator has agreed to cover the shift. Unplanned time is considered anything without a three-week notification period. If coverage cannot be provided, the operator will be required to cover their shift.

· Any operator (regularly scheduled or floater) that leaves the plant to run errands (outside of the floater during their 30-minute lunch period) when there is another operator present is required to clock out and clock back in upon return. Vacation must be submitted for the time offsite. Violations will be handled according to disciplinary guidelines in the employee handbook.

No pets are allowed to be brought to either plant sites at any time (including weekends), with no exceptions. This will serve as the initial/verbal warning as defined in the employee handbook.
