DISCHARGE, SUSPENSION AND WARNING 22.01 When the attitude or performance of an employee calls for a warning by the Employer, such a warning shall be a written one, and a copy of this warning will be forwarded immediately to the regional office of Local 52.
22.02 An employee may be suspended or discharged for proper cause by the Employer. Within five (5) workdays following suspension or discharge, the employee involved, together with a Local 52 Representative, may interview the Employer concerning the reason leading to the suspension or discharge. Within five (5) workdays following the interview, the Union may submit the complaint to arbitration.
DISCHARGE OR SUSPENSION 10.1: The parties agree that the employees covered hereby will not be subject to discharge solely because of political reasons. Further, the Union recognizes and respects the statutory rights of the County and Sheriff; and the Employer recognizes and respects the statutory rights of the employees.
10.2: The Sheriff and/or his designate shall not discharge or suspend any employee without just cause. Any violation(s) which warrants a suspension shall be in writing. One (1) copy will be given to the employee, one (1) copy will be forwarded to the Union, one (1) copy will be forwarded to the Personnel Director by the Sheriff, and the Sheriff will retain the original. An error in furnishing copies shall not affect the merits of the discipline. Suspension notices shall remain in effect for a period not to exceed fifteen (15) calendar months from the date of the suspension notice. Any employee receiving three (3) suspension notices within fifteen (15) calendar months may be discharged with cause; however, this shall not be construed as requiring a specified number of suspension notices before discharge may be imposed.
10.3: All suspensions and/or discharges issued by designates of the Sheriff shall be reviewed by the Sheriff or his designee within twenty-four (24) hours following the suspension and/or discharge. If, in the opinion of the Sheriff, the suspension or discharge was unwarranted, the employee shall be reinstated in his position without loss of seniority or wages for the period of his discharge or suspension.
10.4: In the event an employee is accused and/or charged with an offense or with acts of misconduct that involve possible criminal action, the employee shall not be required to make any statements concerning the alleged offense without:
A. Having a Union representative present, or,
B. Without being presented with a written charge. Such written charges shall be provided as soon as possible but not more than seventy-two (72) hours subsequent thereto. The meeting with the Sheriff or his designated representative shall then be held as soon as possible but not more than forty-eight (48) hours after receiving the written charges. The employee against whom charges have been made may be represented at such meeting by a xxxxxxx or any Union member of his own choosing.
10.5: The Employer shall provide to an employee civil legal counsel necessary to cover any civil litigation arising out of the good faith performance of the officers duties by any law enforcement officers covered by this Agreement. The Employer will not provide legal assistance in defense of violations to the statutes or any ordinances, state, federal or local, allegedly committed by any law enforcement officers covered by this Agreement. The Employer shall not provide legal assistance for any alleged criminal misconduct of an officer at any time.
Unjust Suspension or Discharge Should it be found upon investigation that an employee has been unjustly suspended, discharged or disciplined, such employee shall be immediately reinstated in his/her former position, without loss of seniority, and shall be compensated for all time lost in an amount equal to his/her normal earnings plus interest, or by any other arrangement as to compensation which is just and equitable in the opinion of the parties or in the opinion of the arbitrator if the matter is referred to such arbitrator.
Suspension or Discharge In the event of a grievance arising from an employee's suspension or dismissal, the Employer agrees to notify the employee, in writing, setting out the grounds for the Employer's action. A copy of the notice will be sent to the Union's designate within five (5) calendar days. Grievances arising from suspension shall be filed at Step 2 and from dismissals at arbitration within twenty-one (21) days of the suspension or dismissal.
Suspension or Debarment In addition to the representations and requirements set forth in Section C.4:
(a) The Contractor certifies for itself and Contractor Parties involved in the administration of federal or state funds that they:
(1) are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded by any governmental agency (federal, state or local);
(2) within a three year period preceding the effective date of this Contract, have not been convicted or had a civil judgment rendered against them for commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain or performing a public (federal, state or local) transaction or contract under a public transaction; for violation of federal or state antitrust statutes or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements or receiving stolen property;

(b) Any change in the above status shall be immediately reported to the Agency.
DISCHARGE AND SUSPENSION 10.01 When an employee has been suspended or dismissed on the Company premises, he shall be advised that he may meet with his Committeeperson in private for a reasonable period of time, not exceeding sixty (60) minutes, before leaving the plant premises.
10.02 A claim by a seniority employee that he has been wrongfully suspended or discharged shall be treated as a special grievance. A written statement of such special grievance shall be lodged with the General Manager or his designated representative within five (5) working days, after the receipt of the reasons given by the Company as provided for herein, of such suspension or discharge and shall be dealt with at Step 4 of the grievance procedure, and failing satisfactory settlement at this meeting, the special grievance may then be appealed to an arbitrator in accordance with the procedures herein provided for arbitration.
10.03 A Union representative shall be present at all meetings between the Company and one or more of its employees where the purpose of such meeting may be disciplinary. In circumstances where the Company has decided to undertake disciplinary action, which may result in a suspension or termination of the employee, the Company will, before commencing any action against the employee, first meet with the Plant Chairperson or designate to inform him of the nature of the disciplinary proceedings. At the conclusion of such meeting the Committee will be allowed a reasonable amount of time to meet with an employee who has been disciplined or discharged before he leaves the plant.
10.04 Where a seniority employee has been suspended or discharged, he and a member of the Shop Committee shall be given written reasons for the suspension or discharge within five (5) working days.
10.05 In the case of an employee being suspended or discharged from their employment, the following process will be followed: The employee will be notified that during their suspension or discharge they are not allowed to be on any Xxxxxx Metal Products property. This notice will extend to all plants and not just the plant they are employed at. Any employee who is found to be on Company property during a suspension or discharge will be considered to be trespassing. Any request by a suspended or discharged employee to attend to a Xxxxxx facility must be done through prior approval of the General Manager. If the General Manager approves their attendance on Company property, the employee will be restricted to the office meeting room areas.
10.06 The termination of a probationary employee for unsuitability shall be considered as just cause unless the termination is contrary to the provisions of the Ontario Human Rights Code, or if the termination is arbitrary, discriminatory, or in bad faith. This shall constitute a lesser standard for the purposes of the Ontario Labour Relations Act. The Company will give the reason of the unsuitability to the Union in writing at the time of the termination of the probationary employee.

(c) The letter or form given to the employee shall state the complaint or appraisal of results and contain on the bottom thereof a statement to the effect that the employee acknowledges having read the letter or form acknowledging receipt of a copy of the same, and a place for the employee to sign.

10:06 An employee shall, upon written request, be granted the opportunity to view his/her personnel file.
