Classification Changes and New Positions. When duties in any classification are substantially changed or when a new position is created, the rate of pay and job classification shall be subject to negotiation between the Board and the Union. If the parties are unable to agree as to the classification and/or rate of pay of the job in question, the dispute shall be submitted to the Grievance and Arbitration procedure in accordance with Article 15 of this Agreement. The new rate shall become retroactive from the time the position was first filled by an employee. The setting of a job classification and accompanying wage rate in wage schedules attached to this Agreement shall not bind the Board to create or fill such positions. Except it is understood that the Union retains the right to grieve the classification of any employee or group of employees covered under this Agreement.
