Volunteer Firefighting Leave Leave without pay will be granted when an employee who is a volunteer firefighter is called to duty to respond to a fire, natural disaster or medical emergency.
Shop Stewards Shop Stewards who have been selected pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Union to represent the employees covered hereby will be recognized by the Employer. The number of stewards appointed shall be reasonably related to the needs of the Union to represent bargaining unit members. The names of the stewards will be furnished to the General Manager of the Employer in writing before beginning their duties. An alternate shall act as the xxxxxxx when appointed to do so by the Union and the Employer is so notified. The Employer recognizes that the stewards will be assigned their Union duties and responsibilities by the Union and pursuant to this Agreement. The stewards will cooperate with the Employer in securing compliance with this Agreement and, at the request of the General Manager of the Employer, or of the General Manager’s duly authorized representative, will call to the attention of its employees any violations of this Agreement. Stewards shall perform their assigned duties as an employee covered by this Agreement. Stewards will be given a reasonable amount of time by the xxxxxxx’x supervisor during working hours, and without loss of pay, to handle Union business pertaining to the xxxxxxx’x area of responsibility which could not reasonably be accomplished during non-working hours. This business will be handled as expeditiously as possible and, except for matters taking only a few minutes, the appropriate management supervisor will be informed before a xxxxxxx performs Union business. A xxxxxxx may, with permission from the management supervisor, use a company vehicle to pursue labor management problems during working hours. During outages and other emergencies, a supervisor has the right to require a xxxxxxx to give priority attention to Employer’s business. The xxxxxxx will confine the xxxxxxx’x activities during working hours to those matters pertaining to this Agreement. Stewards will not be terminated for any cause until the General Manager of the Employer and the Business Manager of the Union have completed an investigation of such cause, provided that the investigation shall not last longer than fifteen (15) work days in cases not involving a reduction in force, and 48 hours in cases involving a reduction in force, without mutual agreement of the parties. In the event of a reduction in force involving a xxxxxxx, the General Manager for Employer and the Business Manager of the Union will meet at least 48 hours prior to the reduction in force to allow adequate time for the Business Manager to replace the xxxxxxx; this section, in and of itself, does not obligate Employer to otherwise give the Union advance notice of a reduction in force. As used in this section, “shop xxxxxxx” or “xxxxxxx” includes alternate shop stewards, and “working hours” does not include meal and break periods.
Shift Rotation Routine shift rotation is not an approach to staffing endorsed by the Employer. Except for emergency situations where it may be necessary to provide safe patient care, shift rotation will not be utilized without mutual consent. If such an occasion should ever occur, volunteers will be sought first. If no one volunteers, the Employer will rotate shifts on an inverse seniority basis until the staff vacancies are filled.
