Such employees may be able to work on a part-time or full-time basis in light work positions. The City and the Union encourage a cooperative effort between Management and Union representatives and the Burnaby Municipal Benefit Society and have agreed to form a committee to review the cases of such employees. The four-member committee shall consist of the Director of Human Resources, the Department Head of the Department in which the affected employee is currently employed, the President - Local 23, and the Chairman of the Union Division in which the affected employee is currently a member, or their designates; and any decisions of the committee must be unanimous. The committee may decide that a disabled employee be placed in a light duty position, as agreed to by the committee; however, any resulting increase in staff budget costs is subject to the approval of the City Manager.
