CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. The Association recognizes that strikes (as defined by Section 1 of Public Act 336 of 1947, as amended, of Michigan) by teachers are contrary to law and public policy. The Board and the Association subscribe to the principle that differences shall be resolved by appropriate and peaceful means, in keeping with the high standards of the profession, without interruption of the school program. Accordingly, the Association agrees that during the term of this Agreement, it shall not direct, instigate, participate in, encourage, or support any strike against the Board by any teacher or group of teachers.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. 14.1 CWA hereby agrees on behalf of its members and all employees of the unit it is certified to represent that it shall not authorize, initiate, nor participate in a strike as defined in Sec. 447.203(6), Fla. Stat. against the employer. In addition, it agrees that neither it nor its members or employees of its certified unit shall support in any manner a strike against the employer by any other union or group of employees.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. There shall be no strikes, lockouts, work stoppages, picket lines, slowdowns, secondary boycotts, or disturbances. The Union agrees to support the Company fully in maintaining operations in every way. Participation by any employee or employees in an act violating this provision in any way shall be cause for discharge by the Company. Any discipline imposed shall be applied equally and indiscriminately to all employees according to the degree of involvement.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. The Association and the Board subscribe to the principle that differences shall be resolved by peaceful and appropriate means without interruption of the school program. The Association, therefore, agrees that its officers, representatives and members shall not authorize, instigate, cause, aid, encourage, ratify or condone, nor shall any teacher take part in any strike, slowdown or stoppage of work, boycott or other interruption of activities in the school system. Failure or refusal on the part of any teacher to comply with the provisions of this Article shall be cause for whatever disciplinary action is deemed necessary by the Board.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. A. The Association agrees that neither its officers, agents or members shall, during the period of this Agreement, authorize, condone, directly or indirectly engage in or assist in any strike or other deliberate and concerted interruption or interference with service within this school district.
B. In the event of a violation of this Article by a member or members, the Association will work with the Administration to make every reasonable effort to assure a prompt restoration of service.
C. Any teacher or group of teachers who wilfully violates this Article may be disciplined forthwith up to and including discharge without recourse to any grievance procedure.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. A. Nothing in this Article shall require the Board to keep school open in the event of severe inclement weather or when otherwise prevented by Act of God. When the schools are closed to students due to the above conditions, teachers shall not be required to report for duty.
B. The school calendar shall be a minimum of 170 student days and not have less than the minimum state required number of instructional hours.
C. Any pre-arranged leave scheduled on a day in which school is not in session shall not be charged against the teacher's leave days, including snow days. In the event of a half day of school or an early dismissal, the teacher will only be charged with the portion of the day that school was in session.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. Both parties recognize the desirability of continuous and uninterrupted operation of the instructional program during the normal school year and the avoidance of disputes which threaten to interfere with such operations. Since the parties are establishing a comprehensive grievance procedure under which unresolved disputes may be settled by an impartial third party, the parties have removed the basic cause of work interruptions during the period of this Agreement. The Association accordingly agrees that it will not, during the period of this Agreement, directly or indirectly, engage in, or assist in any strike, as defined in the Public Employment Relations Act, including sympathy strikes.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. Section 4 .1 If the District, through the Superintendent or designee, determines that schools or other District buildings, due to inclement weather or other emergencies, are to be closed, then the employees will not be expected to report to their assignment or to a designated location, and will not lose any pay. If schools and/or other District buildings are closed early due to inclement weather or other emergencies, employees will be free to leave immediately after students are dismissed and will not lose any pay. Administrators in buildings without students will dismiss AVPE members within fifteen (15) minutes of the time all K-12 students have vacated District buildings. If cancelled days and/or instructional hours need to be rescheduled to arrive at the annual instructional minimum required by law, it is understood that the para educators shall not receive any additional compensation for the rescheduled days.
CONTINUITY OF OPERATION. If at any time, during the duration of this Contract, the Association authorizes, causes, engages in, or sanctions any strike or work stoppage of any kind, pickets, a refusal to perform the duties of employment by an employee or employees in the bargaining unit, either totally or through such techniques as work slowdown, work stoppage of any kind or pickets, it shall constitute a breach of contract.
