Submit your Alternative Work Arrangement Request

Requesting a compressed work week and/or remote work is easy!

Simply answer the questions below, and we'll generate a request to your manager via email. It will include a draft agreement for them to sign, and you'll receive a copy at your own email, as well.

  • If you are on an existing arrangement and do not wish to change it, but your agreement is expiring, please contact your manager directly to discuss renewal. 
  • If your request is declined, there are steps you can take. And of course, if you have a health or family status need for an accommodation, please seek one from your manager. An AMAPCEO Workplace Representative can help you with this if you run into any issues.

Compressed Work Weeks

You and your supervisor can agree for you to work a compressed work week (CWW) schedule. In a CWW, you work additional time each day, which will accumulate to earn you a day off work on a regular cycle.

Options:

  • 1-week compressed schedule (work an extra 109 minutes a day for 4 working days to enjoy the 5th day off; for example: 9 am–6:49 pm)
  • 2-week compressed schedule (work an extra 48 minutes a day for 9 working days to enjoy the 10th day off; for example: 9 am–5:48 pm)
  • 3-week compressed schedule (work an extra 31 minutes a day for 14 working days to enjoy the 15th day off; for example: 9 am–5:31 pm)
  • 4-week compressed schedule (work an extra 23 minutes a day for 19 working days to enjoy the 20th day off; for example: 9 am–5:23 pm)

Remote Work (Telework)

The OPS Employer's Return to OPS Workplace (pandemic) plan permits most employees to work remotely two days a week.

You can submit a request to your manager for the number of days per week that you want to work remotely now and on an ongoing basis, even when the current Return to OPS Workplace plan ends.

1 day a week
2 days a week
3 days a week
4 days a week
5 days a week

As many as two remote work days would be covered under the Return to OPS Workplace plan, with the balance pursuant to Article 47 of the AMAPCEO OPS Collective Agreement. When the Return to OPS Workplace plan ends, they will all be pursuant to Article 47 of the AMAPCEO OPS Collective Agreement.

We would like to acknowledge Tkaronto, a Mohawk word meaning “the place in the water where the trees are standing.”

The AMAPCEO office is on the traditional unceded territory of Haudenosaunee speaking nations, including the Wendat, Seneca and Mohawk. These nations have been here since time immemorial and were in more recent times joined by the Mississaugas of the Credit.
