JOB SHARING North Bay; Perth-Huron; Peterborough, Victoria & Haliburton; Sarnia- Lambton Taking into consideration the fact that the Employer wishes to retain well- qualified staff who are unable or prefer not to provide a full-time commitment and the job-sharing can enable this to happen, the parties agree to the following provisions:
(a) Job-sharing requests with regard to full-time positions shall be considered on an individual basis, and the Employer shall reserve the right to determine the appropriateness of such arrangements, including the number of job-shared positions after discussions with the Union at the Labour Management Committee.
(b) Any incumbent full-time Nurse wishing to share their position may do so without having their half (½) of the position posted. The other half (½) of the job-sharing position will be posted, and selection will be in accordance with the Collective Agreement.
(c) Save and except as provided for herein, all job-sharers shall be treated as part-time employees and shall receive percentage in lieu of benefits.
(d) If one (1) of the job-sharers leaves the arrangement, their position will be posted. If there is no successful applicant to the position, the shared position must revert to a full-time position. The remaining Nurse will have the option of continuing the full-time position or reverting to a part-time position for which they are qualified. If they do not continue full-time, the position must be posted in accordance with the Collective Agreement.
(e) Posted schedules for the job-sharers shall be based on the schedules that would apply to a full-time Nurse holding that position. Such schedule shall conform to the scheduling provisions for full- time.
(f) Total hours worked by the two job-sharers shall be equal to one full- time position. The division of these hours over the schedule shall be determined by mutual agreement between the two Nurses and the immediate Supervisor. This does not exclude the Nurses from opportunities for extra available work.
(g) Each job-sharer may exchange shifts with their partner, as well as with other Nurses in accordance with the Collective Agreement, provided such exchange creates no additional labour cost to the Employer and meets continuity requirements.
(h) It is expected that both job-sharers will cover each other’s absences including incidental illnesses and vacation. If, because of unavoidable circumstances, one cannot cover the other, the Supervisor must be notified to book coverage. Job-sharers are not required to cover for their partners in the case or prolonged or extended absences but may be offered the opportunity to do so.
(i) Job-sharers will not be required to work in total more paid holidays than would one full-time Nurse, unless mutually agreed otherwise. Job-sharers will have the right to determine which partner works the scheduled holidays.
(j) Either party may discontinue the arrangement with one month’s written notice and the employees shall revert to their former status without posting if such positions are still available.

Leave Sharing Consistent with RCW 28A.400.380 and WAC 392-126, a leave sharing program is established as follows:
A. A district employee is eligible to receive donated leave if:
1. The staff member suffers from, or has a relative or household member suffering from, an extraordinary or severe illness, injury, impairment, or physical or mental condition which as caused, or is likely to cause, the staff member to:
a. Go on leave without pay status; or
b. Terminate his/her employment;
2. The staff member’s absence and the use of shared leave are justified;
3. The staff member has depleted, or will shortly deplete, his/her annual leave and sick leave reserves;
4. The staff member has abided by district rules regarding sick leave use; and
5. The staff member has diligently pursued and been found to be ineligible to receive industrial insurance benefits. Any employee who wishes to receive leave under this provision shall submit a request in writing to the personnel office. The employee shall submit, prior to leave sharing approval, documentation from a licensed physician or other authorized health care practitioner verifying the severe or extraordinary nature and expected duration of the condition. Employees meeting the criteria indicated above shall be eligible for leave sharing. A staff member shall not receive more leave than the number of normal work days remaining in the current school year. In the event that the condition requiring the employee’s absence continues beyond the current school year, the employee shall not receive a total of more than 261 days of leave.
B. District employees may donate leave as follows:
1. An employee who does not earn annual leave (vacation) and who has an accrued sick leave balance of more than sixty (60) days may request that the superintendent or designee transfer a specified amount of sick leave to another staff member authorized to receive such leave. A staff member may request to transfer no more than six (6) days of sick leave during any twelve (12) month period, and may not request a transfer that would result in an accrued sick leave balance of fewer than sixty (60) days. Employees who accrue vacation must transfer vacation days prior to sick leave days. Sick leave as defined in RCW 28A.58.099 (28A.400.300) means leaves for illness, injury, and emergencies. The number of leave days transferred shall not exceed the amount authorized by the donating staff member.
2. The value of any leave transferred under this policy which remains unused shall be returned to its original value to the staff member who donated the leave. To the extent administratively feasible, the value of unused leave which was transferred by more than one staff member shall be returned on a pro-rata value basis.
Job Sharing / Time Sharing (a) Job sharing shall be interpreted to mean two employees sharing one full- time position (10 shifts bi-weekly).
(b) Time sharing shall be interpreted to mean two employees sharing one full line (14 shifts bi-weekly). Clarifying Note: One full-time and a regular part-time “shadow” does not constitute a time sharing arrangement.
(c) The introduction of job/time sharing arrangements in a Home will be subject to mutual agreement between the Union and the Employer. Job/time sharing requests shall be considered on an individual basis. Such approval will not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) The employees involved in job share/ time sharing are entitled to all the regular part-time provisions except those which are modified as follows:
i) Schedules and scheduling language shall be established by the mutual agreement of the Union and the Home. This will include the division of hours between the job/time sharers.
ii) Each job/time sharer may exchange shifts with her or his partner as well as other employees as provided by the Collective Agreement. Employees who are currently in a job/time sharing arrangement and are full-time will retain that status and be covered by the full-time provisions of the collective agreement. For clarity, this grandparents employees in time sharing arrangements, not positions. When individuals leave these positions, the vacant position will be posted under (f) and (g) below.
Scholarly Sharing On an ad hoc basis, the Authorized Users may transmit to a third party, in hard copy or electronically, minimal, insubstantial amounts or a portion of the Licensed Materials for personal use or scholarly, educational, or scientific research or professional use in the nature of collaboration, comment, or scholarly exchange of ideas but in no case for resale or commercial purposes or in a manner that would substitute for direct access to the Licensed Materials via services offered by the Distributor and/or the Publisher.

Group RRSP 24:01 The University agrees to provide a Group RRSP (GRRSP) with the following features:
Profit Sharing Profit sharing, bonuses, or other similar compensation of any kind paid by CM/GC to its employees.
Defined Benefit Plans The Company has not maintained or contributed to a defined benefit plan as defined in Section 3(35) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). No plan maintained or contributed to by the Company that is subject to ERISA (an “ERISA Plan”) (or any trust created thereunder) has engaged in a “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that could subject the Company to any material tax penalty on prohibited transactions and that has not adequately been corrected. Each ERISA Plan is in compliance in all material respects with all reporting, disclosure and other requirements of the Code and ERISA as they relate to such ERISA Plan, except for any noncompliance which would not result in the imposition of a material tax or monetary penalty. With respect to each ERISA Plan that is intended to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code, either (i) a determination letter has been issued by the Internal Revenue Service stating that such ERISA Plan and the attendant trust are qualified thereunder, or (ii) the remedial amendment period under Section 401(b) of the Code with respect to the establishment of such ERISA Plan has not ended and a determination letter application will be filed with respect to such ERISA Plan prior to the end of such remedial amendment period. The Company has never completely or partially withdrawn from a “multiemployer plan,” as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA.
Sick Leave Sharing The program permits employees to donate sick leave to a fellow employee who is suffering from or has a relative or household member suffering from an extraordinary or severe illness, injury, impairment, or physical, or mental condition which has caused or is likely to cause the employee to take leave without pay or to terminate employment
