ARTICLE 17 <br />STAFFING <br />17.01 The Employer will maintain what it determines to be a safe and effective number of <br />personnel at each station and sub -station during each shift. The Employer agrees with the <br />Union that having three firefighters on an engine would be preferable to having two <br />firefighters on an engine. The Employer will consider this fact when setting staffing levels. <br />The Employer also agrees that no station will be reduced to under what it determines to be <br />minimum staffing for more than four (4) hours per shift with the exception of approved in <br />house, on duty education and training. <br />17.02 The County may allow eight (8) employees off on approved leave per shift. Approved leave <br />shall be defined as Annual Leave, PT day (if any), or Kelly days. Up to two of the eight <br />employees granted leave may be on Kelly days per shift. Kelly days shall be selected first. <br />Any additional employee leave may be granted only with special approval of the Emergency <br />Services Director. <br />28 <br />
