duty and for assigning Classified Staff employees to standby duty.
The supervisor of the employee assigned to standby duty shall maintain
a standby roster of all qualified employees who may be required to serve
on standby duty.
An equitable rotation policy shall be followed in requiring employees
to serve on standby duty.
STANDBY SHIFT - DEFINITION
A standby shift is a designated 8-hour period within any 24 consecutive
hours. Such shifts may vary in beginning and ending times from department
to department, and are subject to change by administrative decision as
dictated by work load needs. Standby shift hours usually coincide with
regular shift hours.
STANDBY PAY
Standby pay shall be provided to nonexempt Classified Staff employees at
the rate of $5.00 per assigned shift.
Standby pay shall be provided to exempt Classified Staff employees with
the approval of the Associate Vice President for Human Resources. Exempt
employees authorized to receive standby pay are typically those expected
to physically perform the duties which require standby status. Exempt Classified
Staff employees who are called back to work from standby status normally
shall not receive compensation in addition to standby pay.
