Such procedure shall be limited as herein provided. Failure or refusal of such representative of either party to meet at the appointed time shall constitute an automatic and final withdrawal or approval of the protest, as the case may be. If, in such expedited arbitration procedure, it is determined there was no need to call, retain or recall an employee out of Studio or out of Industry Experience status, as the case may be, the arbitrator may require Producer to forthwith employ a person in Studio Seniority or Industry Experience Roster status, whichever the case may be. If the matter is so determined, the individual may immediately be awarded back pay, if any, but in no event more than three (3) days back pay. No other penalty may be imposed on the Producer. The decision in such expedited arbitration shall be final and binding and the expedited arbitrator’s authority to decide shall be limited to the issue and remedy herein provided. The above procedure shall be the exclusive remedy for any dispute arising under this Paragraph and such dispute shall not be subject to the provisions of Article 7 of this Agreement.
(7) Notwithstanding the above, in recognition of the parties’ desire to take more immediate action to remove barriers and facilitate employment of individuals from under-served communities or under-represented groups with experience in the entertainment industry and related fields, the parties agree to the following:
(i) Producers may hire non-rostered individuals from under-served communities or under-represented groups who have prior experience in a job classification that is related or substantially similar to the one for which the Producer is hiring (“Prior-Experienced Individuals”) to work in a rostered classification under this Agreement. The prior experience need not have been acquired with a Producer signatory to this Agreement or on a certain type of production. Producer may rely upon Xxxxxxx, Array Crew or other agreed-upon resources to determine an individual’s experience. Days worked by such an individual count towards placement on the Industry Experience Roster. When identifying persons who qualify as Prior-Experienced Individuals, Producers shall consider persons recommended by Local 728.
(ii) Producer shall provide written notice to the Local Union before hiring a Prior-Experienced Individual. Prior-Experienced Individuals shall be required to take CSATF Safety, HP1, and A training at a minimum before commencing work.
(iii) Provided that at least one rostered individual is hired in each department, the maximum number of Prior-Experienced Individuals hired on a production at any given time shall be limited to one (1) in each of the Grips department and the Crafts Service department. The Local Union may agree to increase the foregoing numbers consistent with the parties’ intention to increase access to employment opportunities in this industry.
(iv) In addition, the parties have agreed to a working internship program for entry level rostered classifications in this Agreement (as set forth in Article XLVIII(c)(1) of the Producer-IATSE Basic Agreement). The Producer commits to offer employment to individuals who complete its working internship program to its satisfaction and who continue to perform to the satisfaction of the Producer to enable them to fulfill the workdays requirement for roster placement described in Paragraph 68(a) above. The Producer may fulfill its commitment by offering the individual employment in an open position in the same department in which he or she had been working, on the same or on another production or another assignment for the Producer or for an entity related to or affiliated with the Producer. The Producer’s commitment does not apply to an individual who fails to perform to the satisfaction of the Producer or who rejects an offer of employment from the Producer. To comply with this commitment, the Producer may assign an individual who gained working intern experience in a classification covered under this Agreement through the working internship program to work under the minimum rates, terms and conditions of this Agreement, notwithstanding the availability of eligible individuals from the Industry Experience Roster. The individual may be assigned in the same department in which he or she had been working or on another production or to another assignment. The individual will be assigned as a member of the regular crew or the department, but will not bump an established member of the regular crew or the department. In the event of a layoff of the regular crew for lack of work, the individual shall be laid off before a rostered member of the regular crew.
(v) The parties agree that the training program described in Article XLVIII(c)(1) of the Producer-IATSE Basic Agreement is not the only training program permitted under this Agreement. The parties may mutually agree to additional training program(s) (including on a Producer-by-Producer basis), and to apply the provisions of subparagraph (iv) above to individuals who successfully complete the additional training program(s).
