106.00 - SHIFT SWAPS A shift swap is defined as that time when one member voluntarily works for another by their mutual agreement. 1. The City of Darien does not assume any responsibility for compensating a member who voluntarily agrees to work for another. Nor shall the extra hours worked by a member during a shift swap be used to determine payments for overtime, exchange time, or any other benefit. 2. Shift swaps shall be on a time-for-time basis only. 3. A member may swap shifts only with a member of equal rank and may not work in a higher or lower classification without approval of the Fire Chief or Captain. 4. The member who is scheduled to work their designated shift will be responsible for ensuring that their position is filled by an appropriate member. If the position is not filled the member scheduled to work may be subject to disciplinary action. Legitimate absences may be charged to the appropriate category of leave. |
