ARTICLE 36 - JAIL MEALS
Section 1.
Employees assigned to work in the jail for a work shift of eight (8) hours or more may share in a meal in the jail provided by the EMPLOYER during their assigned shift.
On 2/16/07 the jail administration issued a memo stating :
Staff Dining is not available to Jail Staff attending in-service training, including but not limited to: Basic Emergency Care, First Responder Refresher, SRT Training, Licensed Deputy In-Service, Supervisor In-Service, and other In-Service training conducted at the PSF for Sheriff’s Employees...
The memo ended with:
ALL employees attending training conducted at the PSF will need to make arrangements on their own for the afternoon meal. Students attending in-service training will be given enough time to complete their afternoon meal outside of the ADD.
The contract is clear, if you are assigned a shift of 8 hours in the jail you can have a meal. The result of this is that our members, often ordered to attend eight hours of training on a day off, are by being denied a meal guaranteed by our contract.
ALL TEAMSTER MEMBERS ATTENDING TRAINING OF 8 HOURS OR MORE AT THE PSF ARE ADVISED TO SAVE YOUR RECEIPT FROM YOUR PURCHASED OUTSIDE MEAL AND FILE A GRIEVANCE!
