Know Your Rotation & your minimum number shifts

• if you need help to plan your 4 week rotation around stats and vacation weeks, go to the Vacation planner on the Regional Server. There are additional tabs in this Excel workbook that lay out how to fit your shifts for each week of every 4 week rotation.

Example:

• Pay period Friday Dec 31 to Thursday Jan 6 (Monday Jan 3 stat day)
• If EFT is 60% then your minimum number of shifts per week are: 3 x 7.75 hrs
• You must first complete your required 3 x 7.75 hrs shifts on the ward you are assignment to on either of the following days:
• Friday Dec 31, Tues Jan 4. Wed Jan 5, or Thur Jan 6.
• for the following pay period Fri Jan 7 to Mon Jan 13 (5 days) , you have 3 shifts you must complete first for the ward you are assigned to, and 2 days to pick up shifts elsewhere if there are shifts available.

• Extra shift sign up is on the Regional Server under Extra shifts. Don't depend on lists posted in offices, they are not the most up-to-date.

• The work week is Monday to Friday

• Unless special requests have been made at the time of vacation sign up, Collectors will return from vacation on or after the Monday following their vacation. Collectors will be required to fulfill their EFT on the week they return. This is regardless of whether someone worked for them the Friday before they returned.

• Once you have determined what is available and what will fit into your regular worked shifts, sign up. Once you have signed up you cannot change the day without emailing Trish of your intent to change a signed up shift. She needs to be aware of all changes.

• If an available shift is posted for a certain day within the Monday to Friday workweek and you would like to do that shift on another day that week for example Thursday instead of Friday you can change the day as long as you fulfill your own EFT each week. See EFT and shifts per 4 week rotation

• Staff cannot sign up to cover their own posted vacant shifts BEFORE they go on vacation.
• Staff do not have the option to decide that they don’t want anyone to pick up their vacation shifts while they are away vacationing.
• Other team members at your site and in the Region have the option to pick up the posted relief shifts.
• If no one signed up to cover shifts posted during your vacation or sick LOA, then when you return and management still has these shifts posted as available, you could then sign up for these extra shifts.
• all extra shift need to be approved before you proceed to work them.
• management reserves the right to determine how many and how long extra shifts are available for.
