LETTER OF AGREEMENT #3
GENERAL BIDS. Within 60 calendar days after the ratification date of this Agreement, the Employer shall determine the number and type of regular work week and work day shifts and the number of unassigned shifts at each facility covered by this Operational Supplement, their starting and ending times and the number of employees required to staff each shift for each Department (if the bargaining unit is organized on a Departmental basis at the time) and shall post the jobs for bid. A bid, shall be conducted at least once each contract year in the month of January. The bid shall be posted for a period of 14 days. The bid shall become effective on the first Monday, but at least 14 days, after bid close. The Employer has the right to conduct additional bids as it deems necessary based on operational need. The following provision shall apply only if the bargaining unit is organized on a Departmental basis at the time of the bid. If so, bidding will be by department. That is, bids as described above, will be completed separately for each department. The jobs within these departments, which are posted for bid, will be open for bid to employees currently on that department’s seniority roster. Employees are not permitted to bid outside their current department. The qualifications to perform a particular job shall be established by the Company in its sole discretion. An employee must possess such qualifications to successfully bid that position. Nothing herein shall limit the Employer’s right to cross-utilize employees covered by this Agreement. The Company shall have the right to force the number of qualified unassigned employees necessary to work such shifts, by inverse order of department seniority. To fill any work shift posted as part of the job bid which is not bid by any qualified employee, the Company may assign a qualified employee in inverse order of unit seniority, or the Company may hire an employee from the outside.
