earnings pursuant to Section 166 (c) of Chapter 127 of the Illinois Revised Statutes shall do so by executing and filing with the University a document in a form approved by the Vice-President and Comptroller and by the Legal Counsel. In the event that more than one such election is filed by an employee, the election bearing the latest date shall be deemed to supersede all previous elections, but no employee may file more than one election in any calendar year. Any such election so filed may be revoked at any time by the employee upon filing a written revocation with the University. The Vice-President and Comptroller recommends that the amendment be approved. I concur.

On motion of Mr. Hughes, this recommendation was approved.

CHANGE IN NONACADEMIC POLICY AND RULES (12) The agreement recently negotiated with the Building Service Employees Union, Local 119 (Urbana campus) provides for a new work shift, in not more than twelve buildings, between the hours of 11:30 p.m. and 7:30 a.m. The Director of the Physical Plant, with the concurrence of the Union, has determined that the University will be best served if the work week for this shift begins at 11:30 p.m. each Sunday night. Under Section IV of the Policy and Rules Relating to Compensation and Working Conditions of Nonacademic Employees as approved by the Board of Trustees, "the work week of all employees shall start on Monday" and "all work on Sundays is overtime." Section V of the Policy and Rules provides for overtime compensation for Sunday work. However, in the agreement with the Union, overtime pay is not contemplated for any part of this new work shift. Although but thirty-one minutes of time are involved, and the bulk of the hours worked on the first day of the work week is on .Monday, the agreement does represent an exception to the existing Policy and Rules. Therefore, on recommendation of the Director of the Physical Plant, the Director of Nonacademic Personnel, and the Vice-President and Comptroller, approval is requested of an exception, for this one situation, to the Policy and Rules. I concur. O n m o t i o n of M r . S w a i n , t h i s r e c o m m e n d a t i o n w a s a p p r o v e d .
