Lines of Progression. A line of progression consists of a series of job levels, beginning with a Trainee classification and ending with the appropriate top of the line classification. New employees or present employees who have been selected with the required qualifications, enter a progression line to fill job vacancies, either at the Trainee classification or at the level within the line for which they qualify. Each employee in a non-complement progression line receives training applicable to his job, to enable him to progress to the top rate within his / her line, on the basis of demonstrated ability to meet the job standards. In addition, in the case of employees who enter a line of progression as a result of retrogression from another line, progress will be based on previous experience and demonstrated ability to meet the job standards. The lines of progression are shown on the attached chart. A number of job classifications on the plant site do not have accompanying progressions. They vary from those that do not require a skill to those into which people bring their skills. These classifications are listed on the attached chart.
Lines of Progression. In negotiations, the Company and the Union discussed the Company’s approach to a Line of Progression model in the operations. The Company’s goal in having a line of progression model is to have as many highly trained, highly skilled employees as it needs to operate the mine in a productive and cost-effective manner.

It is in the Company’s interest to ensure that an employee who has progressed to a level where he obtains a regular assignment will remain in that regular assignment unless the Company need to:
Lines of Progression. A line of progression is defined as a group of job classifications that relate to the operation of a machine, press, group of presses, or corrugator.

Should a person post down within a line of progression for medical reasons they shall have a period of one (1) year to reclaim their original position. Should an employee post out of a line of progression the employee will only be permitted to re-enter a line in a vacant entry-level position. All vacancies and subsequent vacancies within a line of progression in the Press department will be filled as follows: Xxxxxx Hycorr 78 S&S 113 Hycorr 128 XxXxxxxx Xxxx Grant TCY First, the most senior applicant within the same classification will be awarded the position until the vacancies within the classification have been filled.

Lines of Progression. The Company and the Union agree that the following will be the lines of progression for training in the departments: Mill Operator 1 Control Room Flotation Mill Operator 2 Grinding Moly Flotation Mill Operator 3 SXEW Primary Crusher Operator Filter Mill Operator 4 Mill Utility Operator Trained in 3 of the 4 Mill Op 5 Mill Operator 5 Tailings Sample Bucker Service Operator Crusher Helper Mill Operator 6 Mill Labourer Mine Operator 1 Shovel Operator Mine Operator 2 Driller Production Loader Blaster Mine Operator 3 Equipment Operator Mine Operator 4 Truck Driver Pit Dewaterer Blaster Helper I Pit Utility (Temp) Mine Operator 5 Truck Driver Trainee Blaster Helper II Mine Operator 6 Mine Labourer Within the Mill, once a labourer has been fully trained on one of the Mill Operator 5 circuits, he will be paid the Operator 5 rate. In order to be eligible to train on an Operator 3 position, the applicant must be a qualified Operator 4. An employee who has been promoted out of the Mill line of progression will have the option to take training opportunities missed in a lower position without loss of pay. After ratification, any employee bidding to be trained on a Mill Operator 1 position will have to be qualified on SXEW, or he/she will be trained to be familiar with the operations of the SXEW circuit (at least 50% of the training hours). This SXEW qualification requirement may be temporarily suspended at the discretion of the Company. Within the Mine Department, blasting will be its own line of progression. An applicant can only train one operational classification beyond his/ her current classification, with the exception of truck drivers bidding on driller training positions. In the event that no applicant from the classification below the training posting applies or is qualified, other bids will be accepted.
