Common use of Fairness Committee Clause in Contracts

Fairness Committee. Employees in each Division covered by the FFA shall be supported by a Fairness Committee (“FC”). The purpose of the Fairness Committee is to act as a resource in the Concern Resolution Process in each facility, and to work to build a positive and productive work environment within their Division. The Fairness Committee (FC) will consist of: a) Members selected by employees from each department or work area, and shift; and b) Members appointed by plant management, including managers or supervisors. The Employee Advocate may participate in any Fairness Committee activities as an ex-officio member. The non-managerial members will constitute at least 50 percent plus one of the members of the Fairness Committee. The requirements and qualifications for elected Fairness Committee representatives, and the process for their election, is described in Appendix B. FC members shall perform their FC duties on non-work time, with the exception of attending FC meetings, formal hearings, and dealing with issues in extenuating circumstances. A FC member who must carry out his or her duties during working hours shall require supervisor approval prior to leaving his or her production duties. The FC can review issues that concern the application of the National Agreement to non- probationary Employees. The FC cannot directly change Magna policies or procedures or the provisions of the FFA or the National Agreement, however, their decisions may influence future management reviews or collective bargaining. Other matters beyond the scope of review of the FC include pay and benefit rates and employment terminations. Resolution of issues relating to the termination of employment shall begin at the Hotline step of the Concern Resolution Process. While some Fairness Committee members are also members of the Union, they are not union representatives nor does their role include the representation of employees.
