JOINT CONFERENCES Sample Clauses

JOINT CONFERENCES. 31.1 The Employer and CRONA recognize their mutual interest and concerns regarding numerous matters and their effects on Nurses, e.g., health and safety, work environment, human resources matters, parking and security and personnel policies and procedures of specific application to Nurses and of general application to the Employer’s employees, including Nurses. The Employer desires to have CRONA share with the Employer their suggestions and recommendations regarding such matters. Therefore the Employer and CRONA agree that at the request of either the Employer or CRONA, joint conferences with CRONA, Stanford Hospital and Clinics and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Children’s Hospital shall be held monthly between appropriate Employer representatives and CRONA officers for the purpose of discussing such matters. A representative from Nursing Administration from each Hospital shall attend the meetings. It is understood that no matters discussed or action taken as a result of such conference shall, in any way, change or alter any of the provisions of this Agreement or the rights or obligations of either party under the terms of this Agreement. The parties also may mutually agree to schedule special conferences. 31.2 The Employer respects the legitimate concerns of Nurses who may prefer not to participate in procedures in keeping with an individual Nurse’s moral, ethical, and/or religious beliefs except in an emergency when a patient’s life is endangered or when the Nurse’s actions are not consistent with good nursing practice. The Employer will raise and discuss as appropriate individual cases involving these issues in joint conferences. CRONA recognizes that the Employer retains the sole discretion to make a final determination in such matters and agrees that to the extent disputes are processed in the grievance procedure the Employer’s determination will not be overturned except upon a showing that such determination is arbitrary or capricious. 31.3 The parties recognize that issues may arise during the term of this Agreement regarding a possible conflict between the terms of this Agreement and a reasonable accommodation for qualified individuals with a disability. Where such issues arise, the Employer will consult with CRONA to determine on a case-by- case basis whether a mutually acceptable solution can be found.
