COMPANY-UNION RELATIONS. Section 1. P-11 The intent of this paragraph is to give existing employees the chance to do their work themselves before calling in subcontractors. This means that, before calling in contractors, the Company will give adequate notice of its intent to the Union such as to enable full and proper discussion and give the Union the chance to explore with its members, ways in which they could perform the work themselves and avoid the use of contractors. The Company hereby assures the Union it has no plans to change its policy and that it expects to continue its general practice of placing primary reliance on its own skilled electricians to perform electrical work as provided in the Agreement. Such ways could include, but not be limited to, working overtime, working additional overtime, recalling laid-off employees, etc., but any final decision will take into account available time, manpower and cost. At the end of such discussion, the Company reserves the right to use contractors, but agrees that, if it does so, such contractors will be a contractor in agreement with the IBEW. Work performed under the terms of this Agreement shall include the work necessary to build, install, maintain, dismantle, repair and replace any and all electrical wiring apparatus and equipment; also the cleaning and repairing of all lighting fixtures; excluding all telephone equipment and mobile communication equipment. This will not be interpreted to prohibit the Company from securing the services of outside contractors to perform any work which is necessary to meet schedules and maintain production; provided, however, that in such case the Company shall first discuss its plan with the Union. It is also made a part of this Agreement in this section that the Company in securing the services of any outside electrical contractor to perform any work which may be necessary to meet schedules, and so forth, must be a contractor in agreement with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. The above paragraphs of P-11 do not apply to equipment sold by the Company and removed from the plant. The Company will notify the I.B.E.W in advance of any equipment that may be sold. (Scrap equipment, equipment sold or transferred to another ArvinMeritor Plant, and Leased manufacturing machines are excluded.) A letter will be provided to the I.B.E.W. stating who has purchased the equipment.
