Up to one- half (½) of those Principal Operators cleared under this provision may commence employment at the start of the Right-of-Way operations and the balance of those Principal Operators cleared under this provision may commence employment not prior to the start of the Pipe Gang operations.
5.1.2 Up to fifty percent (50%) of the mechanics, utility welders and lubrication and service unit operators required for the job who are members of another Local of the Union. This ratio shall be maintained on a "one-to-one" basis for the duration of the job. The first employee shall be a member of the Local Union having geographic jurisdiction for the job.
5.1.3 The Employer shall have the right to name request by classification up to fifty percent (50%) of the required employees who are members of the Local Union. Those employees hired under the provisions of Article 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 above shall be included in the fifty percent (50%). This ratio shall be maintained on a one-to-one basis for the duration of the job. Thereafter the Employer shall notify the Local Union of all his employee requirements and shall only hire those who have been cleared for work by the Local Union having jurisdiction.
5.2 The Local Union shall be given forty-eight (48) hours exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays to supply the required employees but shall advise the Employer of expected delays in dispatching any employees within forty- eight (48) hours. Employees shall be entitled to Waiting Time or Reporting Time upon arrival at the jobsite on the day designated by the Employer for arrival, if no work is provided.
5.3 All employees shall be in possession of a referral slip from the Local Union for identification purposes unless the Local Union otherwise clears an employee for hire by telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or other means of written communication. All out-of-province employees must provide the Local Union having jurisdiction with a copy of a duly authorized Travel Card issued by his/her home Local prior to being issued a referral slip and cleared to work.

BARGAINING PROCEDURE 10.01 All negotiations with a view to the completion of a collective agreement or to effecting changes or modifications in this Agreement shall be conducted between the authorized bargaining Representatives of the Union on the one hand and the designated bargaining Representatives of the Company on the other.
10.02 No agreement resulting from collective bargaining as herein provided shall be deemed to have been concluded until it is reduced to writing and signed by the authorized bargaining Representatives of the Union and by the designated bargaining Representatives of the Company, and an agreement so signed shall take effect as and from the effective date specified therein.
Hiring Procedures Nothing contained in this Article 4 shall impair any of the rights of the Employer to hire new or additional employees to meet the employment needs of the Employer, in accordance with the terms and provisions of this collective bargaining Agreement or to meet the obligations of the Employer under Article 2, Section H of this Agreement or to take affirmative steps to comply with any requirements under any applicable Federal or State law prohibiting discrimination in employment.
Discipline Procedure 1. Disciplinary action may be imposed for violation of written rules and regulations as set forth by the Board, incompetence, inefficiency, dishonesty, drunkenness, immoral conduct, insubordination, discourteous treatment of the public, neglect of duty, misfeasance, malfeasance, nonfeasance, any other failure of good behavior, or conviction of a felony.
2. No employee shall be disciplined without first having had the opportunity for a hearing, if the employee so requests, with an OAPSE representative of his/her choice present. The employee shall be given a written statement containing the charges and the time and place of the hearing. The written statement shall notify the employee of his/her rights to OAPSE representation. The employee must be given the opportunity to sign the statement acknowledging receipt of the statement and date received. Under emergency conditions as determined by the supervisor (including, but not limited to, health and/or safety of the employee or other employees; blatant insubordination; or refusal to work), the supervisor may immediately suspend an employee without pay for a period of up to three (3) work days without the formal hearing described above. An opportunity for a formal hearing with the supervisor must be provided within the suspension period. Failure to provide an opportunity for a hearing during the suspension period shall preclude the right of further discipline for the offense causing the initial suspension. Emergency suspensions will not be subject to Section 6 of this Article.
3. Disciplinary action of less than discharge should generally be progressive and corrective in nature.
A. Disciplinary actions shall be grievable. This Section shall supersede existing state law governing termination of employment (O.R.C. 3319.081).
B. In determining progressive and corrective action, just cause shall be construed and limited to the nature and seriousness of the offense, the effect the alleged conduct has on the Board’s operation, the discipline or lack thereof used in other similar situations known to the Board, and the appropriateness of the proposed penalty in view of the record and length of service of the charged employee. The enumeration of these factors is not intended to preclude either the exercise of good and sound business judgment or to minimize the importance of an employee’s property interest in his job.
Posting Procedure (a) Except as otherwise provided, all positions shall be posted as they arise and shall be posted using the standard posting format (see Appendix C).
(b) All postings shall include the following:
(1) the Bargaining Unit to which the posting applies;

System for Award Management (XXX) Requirement Alongside a signed copy of this Agreement, Grantee will provide Florida Housing with a XXX.xxx proof of registration and Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) number.

Bumping Procedure In the application of this Article, permanent part-time employees cannot displace permanent full-time employees or vice versa provided that permanent full-time employees who have exhausted their bumping rights hereunder and are to be laid off from work shall have the right to displace a permanent part-time employee with lesser GO seniority, within their section. Such bumping within the section may only be in a downward or lateral direction provided they are qualified, willing and able to do the work (refer to Schedule “E-I” and “E-I OFPT”). Downward shall be defined as lesser pay per hour and/or lesser hours per week (permanent full-time vs. permanent part-time). Lateral shall be defined as same pay per hour. In the application of this Article, permanent part-time employees cannot displace permanent full-time employees or vice versa provided that permanent full-time employees who have exhausted their bumping rights hereunder and are to be laid off from work, shall have the right to displace any permanent part-time employee with lesser GO Transit seniority, within their section provided they are able, willing and qualified. Due to the nature of the bumping procedure and the unpredictability of the direction and results of that bumping, the layoff must take precedent over all other normal movement of employees (i.e., standing applications). During layoffs an employee may choose to accept an open position for which he/she is qualified rather than bumping within their classification or section and should he/she elect this option, they shall retain recall rights to the original classification without loss of seniority. Where an OFPT employee who has been notified or is on layoff and currently possesses the qualifications and skills of a position they have held previously, then the employee may bump laterally or downward within their section or another section where the previously held position is identified. At the time of layoff the employee must satisfy the criteria identified in the current job description, and the employee must have satisfied the performance standards of that classification. Should the parties agree that the bumping procedure will likely cause significant movement within a classification or section, then the parties may agree to have a “master” sign-up take place which will be the sole responsibility of the Union to administer.
Closing Procedure The Company or its assigns shall effect the ----------------- Repurchase by delivering or mailing to the Grantee (and/or, if applicable, his Permitted Transferees) written notice within six (6) months after the Termination Event or Bankruptcy, specifying a date within such six-month period in which the Repurchase shall be effected. Upon such notification, the Grantee and his Permitted Transferees shall promptly surrender to the Company any certificates representing the Restricted Shares being purchased, together with a duly executed stock power for the transfer of such Restricted Shares to the Company or the Company's assignee or assignees (as contemplated by Section 6, if applicable). Upon the Company's or its assignee's receipt of the certificates from the Grantee or his Permitted Transferees, the Company or its assignee or assignees shall deliver to him, her or them a check for the purchase price of the Restricted Shares being purchased, provided, however, that the Company may pay the purchase price for such shares by offsetting and canceling any indebtedness then owed by the Grantee to the Company. At such time, the Grantee and/or any holder of the Restricted Shares shall deliver to the Company the certificate or certificates representing the Restricted Shares so repurchased, duly endorsed for transfer, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances. The Repurchase obligation specified herein shall survive and remain in effect as to Restricted Shares following and notwithstanding any public offering by or merger or other transaction involving the Company and certificates representing such Restricted Shares shall bear legends to such effect.
Voting Procedure The Trust shall be authorized to solicit, and a Shareholder shall be entitled to submit a proxy ballot containing the voting instructions of such Shareholder, in person, or by U.S. mail, overnight mail, express mail, telephone, electronic mail, telefacsimile, telegraph, internet or other electronic media, provided however, that the Sponsor or an officer of the Trust may limit or delineate the types of media and methods by which a Shareholder may submit voting instructions. On any matter any Shareholder may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or vote them against the proposal, but if the Shareholder fails to specify the number of shares which the Shareholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the Shareholder’s approving vote is with respect to the total shares that the Shareholder is entitled to vote on such proposal.
