  • Shift Work Shift work is work not in excess of ordinary hours (ie 38 hours per week), but carried out wholly or partly between the hours of 7.00pm and 7.00am, Monday to Friday. Shift work is work scheduled at least 24 hours prior to the commencement of the shift. Employees required to work shift work will be paid at time and one quarter of the ordinary rate per hour for ordinary hours worked.

  • JOB In the event new jobs are created or vacancies occur within the bargaining unit, the Company will post such new jobs or vacancies for a period of three (3) working days, in order to allow bargaining unit employees to apply. Each posting will list the qualifications and the number needed. Immediately upon makingthe initial award, the name of the employee awarded the job will be posted and given to the Union. Employees will be notified by a posted notice, if a bid is cancelled. Employees interested in these vacancies, may sign the posted bid sheets. Only employees who meet the qualifications will be eligible to bid. Skills and abilities being satisfactory, the most senior employee biddingwill be awarded the bid. If no one bids, the Company, may at its discretion, fill the vacancy with a new hire or least senior production technician. The fact that an employee is considered a for a particular position, will not automatically qualify that person for the position if it's posted for bid. An employee who is on medical leave of absence is not eligible to bid on a posting. A successful bidder will be placed in the new classificationwithin two weeks after having been awarded the bid. Employees bidding on a higher paying position will not be paid the higher rate until they qualify for and accept the new position and then they will be paid back to the date they were awarded the bid. Employees may not bid for a job posting any more frequently than every five months. Employees can bid from a temporary posting to a full-time posting but, in no case will any employee be allowed to bid from one temporary bid to another temporary bid. Once placed in the new classification, the employee will have ten days to demonstrate the ability to perform satisfactorily. This can be extended or waived by mutual agreement. If the employee wishes to waive the ten days such employee will be required to fill out the I waiver form. In case the employee is not retained in the job by the Company, or the employee voluntarily elects to give up their rights to the job, providing it is within the first ten days, the employee will be returned to his former classificationand shift, seniority permitting. It is understood that no employee is allowed to give up their rights to any job bid more than times per calendar year. As an exception, where a bid is accepted within the classification, but involves a shift change, the employee can only elect to give up their bid providing it is within the first five (5) days. Once four (4) employees have been given opportunities to qualify for any one vacancy, the job will be re-posted. The rate of pay for an employee transferring under this section will be at the same step of progression for the new classification as he is being paid for the classification he is transferring from. The Union will be given copies of all bids and applicants and bid awards. The company agrees to post any positions that new hires are placed in, so seniority employees can apply. These jobs will be posted one week after hire. New Jobs If the Company elects to create a new classification it will inform the bargainingcommittee in writing setting forth the classificationand the rate of pay. The union shall have five working days to dispute the rate of pay assigned to the classification. If at the expiration of the five working days no formal dispute has been filed, the rate established shall be permanent. If the rate initially established is changed as a result of the Union filing a dispute, the new rate agreed upon shall be applied retroactively to the date it was initially established. The newly created classification shall be posted for bid no later than thirty calendar days after the date the Union was given its written notification. Temporary Assignments It is understoodand agreed between the parties that employees may be temporarily assigned to classifications other than their own due to the varying of customer schedules and needs, as well as absenteeism, vacations, leaves of absences or the like. When such temporary assignments are made, the employee involved will be paid the rate of pay for his own position or the position to which he is being temporarily assigned, whichever is higher, for the length of the temporary assignment. The Company agrees to annually canvass employees to determine which employees are interested in temporary assignments, and when possible, make temporary assignment opportunities available to them. The company will train two (2) people per year, by shift, by seniority. If requested, the Company will supply the Union a copy of the list of who is trained and for what position. In case of temporary assignments of more than one week, the assignment will first be offered to the senior qualified employees in the classification from which the transfer is being made. If no one volunteers to cover the Saturday from the other the employee in the temporary assignment will be required to fill the vacancy. It is also understood that no one temporary assignment will last longer than thirty calendar days without the mutual consent of the parties. The Company will create a Temporary Assignment Board, stating the starting and ending dates of current temporary assignments in the plant. It will be the Supervisors' responsibility to monitor the board. The board will be located at a mutually agreed upon location. The parties agree that this section will not be used to circumvent the Job Posting procedure. The Company will continue the practice of posting positions on a temporary basis for those jobs vacated by employees who are going off for a known period of thirty (30) days or more. Transfers Outside of BargainingUnit to the effective date of this agreement, employees who have been appointed or selected for a supervisory position, or for any position not subject to the provisions of this agreement, will not be covered by the provisions of this agreement. However, if any employee on a seniority list, covered by this agreement, is temporarily transferred or appointed to a supervisory position outside of the bargaining unit by the Company, and then is transferred back to a position which is covered by this agreement, the employee will return only with the seniority earned while in the bargaining unit. The returning employee has no rights to their previous job or shift. For every employee temporarily transferred out of the bargaining unit, the Company agrees to recall or hire an employee for an equal period of time as the transferring employee. Temporary Shift Trades The Company will allow employees to apply for voluntary shift trades within their own classification. If approved, employees become the lowest seniority on the shift, within the classification they have switched to. No shift trade will be unreasonably denied. The length of the temporary shift trade may vary depending on the individual circumstances. ARTICLE
