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:

   ●   sharing of responsibilities time division
   ●   salary and fringe benefits 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

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.
