Health and safety exception. Clerks shall not be re- quired to work when in good faith they believe that to do so is to immediately endanger health and safety. Only in cases of bona fide health and safety issues may a standby be justified. The Union pledges in good faith that health and safety will not be used as a gimmick. The employer shall have the option of having the men who raise a question of health and safety stand by until a decision is reached or “working around” the situation until it can be resolved, and no further work shall be performed on that disputed operation until the health and safety issue is re- solved.
