JOB SHARING
The Board of Education approves in principle the concept of job-sharing in certified positions in
this school system.
The Board of Education recognizes that maximum benefits from job-sharing will require care in
detailed arrangements to be made by the administration with the cooperation of staff
members.
Among the elements of job-sharing to be considered by the administration in setting up needed
arrangements will be:
● how the responsibilities of the shared position will be divided
● how the hours associated with the position will be divided
● sharing of responsibilities time division
● how the salary and fringe benefits will be split splits cost
● effectiveness reduction of staff
● burn-out flexibility of arrangements
● avoidance of duplication of efforts
● effects upon the school's budget team
● compatibility intra-team
● communication intra-team
● coordination relations with other staff
● minimizing absenteeism supplementing
● team talents personality conflict
● effects upon staff morale
● whether or not the sharing of the position places an undue burden on the district
The Board wishes frequent reports on the operation of the job-sharing plan during the months
of its operation as a guide to its continuance.
