Where an incapacitated employee advises the permanent head in writing of his/her intention to exercise his/her right to displace a less senior employee, the incapacitated employee will be deemed to have been given notice of layoff effective from the date he/she was confirmed as being unable to perform the regular duties of his/her classification. Accordingly, the right to displace a less senior employee in another classification shall be exercised as per the provisions of Article 35, Layoff, Bumping and Recall. 29.04 In the event that an employee is placed on leave under the provisions of this Article, he/she will not accrue seniority during any period when he/she would normally be laid off. 29.05 The Employer determines whether its employees will be covered directly by the Workers' Compensation Commission or indirectly through a "self-insured" arrangement. Benefits under either arrangement are to be in accordance with the provisions of The Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission Act, RSNL 1990 Chapter W-11. 29.06 It is agreed and understood by the parties to this Collective Agreement that an employee who is approved for full extended earnings loss (EEL) benefits from the Workplace, Health, Safety and Compensation Commission, after the date of signing of this agreement, shall no longer accumulate benefits under this agreement but shall have his/her position with the employer protected for two (2) calendar years following the date of such approval, immediately following which his/her employment shall be terminated, subject to the Human Rights Act.

  • Civic Duty Whenever an employee is served with a subpoena by a court of competent jurisdiction which compels his/her presence as a witness during his/her normal working period, unless he/she is a party to the litigation or an expert witness, such employee shall be granted time off with pay in the amount of the difference between the employee's regular earnings and any amount he/she receives for such appearance. This Article is not applicable to appearances for which the employee receives compensation in excess of his/her regular earnings. A court of competent jurisdiction is defined as a court within the County in which the employee resides or if outside the county of residence, the place of appearance must be within 150 miles of the employee's residence.

  • Injured on Duty An employee prevented from completing a shift due to a bona fide injury sustained while on duty will be paid for his/her full shift at straight time rates of pay, unless the employee receives Workers' Compensation Benefits for the day of the injury in which case the employee will be paid the difference between such compensation and payment for the full shift.

  • General Duty The Employer will provide, to the extent possible, safe, secure, healthful working conditions for all employees. The Employer agrees to comply with the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and all other applicable federal, State and local laws and regulations, and departmental safety rules and regulations. All employees shall comply with all safety rules and regulations established by the Employer.

  • Injury on Duty Leave An employee shall be granted injury-on-duty leave with pay for such reasonable period as may be determined by the Employer where it is determined by a Workers' Safety & Compensation Commission that he/she is unable to perform his/her duties because of:

  • Illness injury, or pregnancy-related condition of a member of the employee’s immediate family where the employee’s presence is reasonably necessary for the health and welfare of the employee or affected family member;

  • Jury Duty A. An employee shall be allowed such time off without loss of compensation as is required in connection with mandatory jury duty. Upon receiving notice of jury duty an employee shall immediately provide a copy of the notice to his/her supervisor. B. If payment is made for such time off, the employee is required to remit to the State jury fees received. If an employee elects to use accrued vacation leave or compensating time off while on jury duty, the employee is not required to remit jury fees. For the purposes of this section, "jury fees" means fees received for jury duty excluding payment for mileage, parking, meals, or other out-of-pocket expenses. C. For an employee summoned to jury duty during hours other than the employee's regular and customary shift, management will endeavor to temporarily reassign the employee to a work shift that more closely coincides with the hours the employee is required to serve on jury duty, including any necessary travel time, subject to the following: 1. The department already maintains an appropriate work shift that utilizes the employee's classification; and 2. The operational needs of the department permit such reassignment. D. An employee shall be allowed time off without loss of compensation if approved by the department head or designee for voluntary jury duty such as grand jury. If approved by the department, paragraphs B. and C. apply. E. For the purpose of this section, an employee summoned to jury duty may be required to adjust their work shift to an eight (8) hour schedule. F. An employee summoned to jury duty who does not serve for a full day or who is placed on "on-call" status shall return to work to complete his/her scheduled workday if reasonable time remains for such return. An employee may not be required to report back to work if he/she feels there is not reasonably enough time left in the workday and if the employee's supervisor concurs. Concurrence will not be unreasonably withheld.

  • ABSENCE FROM DUTY Unless a provision of this agreement states otherwise (e.g. sick leave), an employee not attending for duty will lose their pay for the actual time of such non- attendance.

  • Jury & Witness Duty (a) If a full-time or regular part-time nurse is required to serve as a juror in any court of law, or is required to attend as a witness in a court proceeding in which the Crown is a party, or is required by subpoena to attend a court of law in connection with a case arising from the nurse's duties at the hospital, or is required to attend a coroner’s inquest in connection with a case arising from the nurse’s duties at the hospital, the nurse shall not lose service/seniority or regular pay because of such attendance and shall not be required to work the night shift prior to, or on the day of such duty provided that the nurse: i) notifies the Hospital immediately on the nurse's notification that she or he will be required to attend court; ii) presents proof of service requiring the nurse's attendance; iii) deposits with the Hospital the full amount of compensation received excluding mileage, travelling and meal allowances and an official receipt where available. In addition, where a full-time nurse or regular part-time nurse is selected for jury duty for a period in excess of one (1) week, she or he shall be paid for all hours scheduled and not be expected to attend at work. Upon completion of the process the nurse shall be returned to that point on her or his former schedule that is considered appropriate by the Hospital. It is understood and agreed that the local parties may agree to different scheduling arrangements for the first week of jury and witness duty. (b) Where the Hospital requires a nurse to attend any meetings in preparation for a case or legal proceedings which either arises from a nurse’s employment with the Hospital or otherwise involves the Hospital, the Hospital will make every reasonable effort to schedule such meetings at the Hospital during the nurse’s regularly scheduled hours of work. If the nurse is required to attend such meetings outside of her or his regularly scheduled hours, the nurse shall be paid for all hours spent in such meetings at her or his regular straight time hourly rate of pay. Part-time nurses will be credited with seniority and service for all such hours paid as provided above while in attendance at such meetings.

  • Illness or Injury An employee may utilize accrued paid leave when he or she is unable to perform his or her work duties by reason of illness or injury, necessary medical or dental care, exposure to contagious disease under circumstances in which the health of the employees with whom the employee associates or members of the public necessarily dealt with by the employee would be endangered by the attendance of the employee, or by illness in the employee's immediate family.
