Excused Absences Absences will be excused only under the following circumstances.
Salary Deductions Salaried employees (E-level classifications) who are permanently assigned to full-time job classifications are paid on a bi-weekly salary basis. Salaried employees are paid a bi-weekly salary based on a minimum of two (2) forty (40) hour workweeks. The bi-weekly salary received by salaried employees will not be reduced regardless of the number of hours the salaried employee actually works in any week in which the salaried employee performs any work except for the following deductions: (A) Deductions from a salaried employee's salary may be made for any workweek in which the salaried employee performs no work. (B) Deductions from a salaried employee's salary may be made when the employee absents himself from work for a full day or days for personal reasons, other than sickness or accident. This provision shall not prevent appropriate deductions from being made from any employee's vacation leave balance pursuant to Article 11 of this Agreement for absences of less than a day for personal reasons, other than sickness or accident. (C) Deductions from an employee's salary may be made when a salaried employee absents himself from work for a day (or days) for sickness or accident disability in accordance with the provisions of Articles 13 and 14 of this Agreement. (D) Deduction in a salaried employee's salary may be made for the initial or terminal week of the salaried employee if the salaried employee fails to work the entire workweek.
Dues Deduction 22.01 The Company will deduct on the payroll for each period, from wages due and payable to each Employee coming within the scope of this Collective Agreement, an amount equivalent to the dues of the Union subject to the conditions set forth herein. 22.02 The amount to be deducted shall be equivalent to the regular dues payment of the Union and shall include assessments or initiation fees applicable to new hires. The amount to be deducted shall not be changed during the term of the Agreement except to conform with a change in the amount of regular dues to the Union in accordance with its constitutional provisions. 22.03 Deductions will commence on the payroll for the first pay period of the calendar month following the first date of employment in a position covered by this Agreement. 22.04 If the wages of an Employee payable for any period are insufficient to permit a full deduction, no such deduction will be made from the wages of such Employee by the Company on that payroll. The Company will not, because the Employee did not have sufficient wages on any payroll, carry forward and deduct from any subsequent wages the amount not deducted on an earlier payroll. 22.05 Only payroll deductions now or hereafter required by law and deductions of monies due or owing the Company shall be made from wages prior to the deduction of dues. 22.06 The amount so deducted from wages, accompanied by a statement of deductions from individuals, will be remitted by the Company to the Union, as may be mutually agreed by the Company and the Union not later than thirty (30) calendar days following the pay period in which the deductions are made. 22.07 The Company shall not be responsible for arrears. 22.08 The Company shall not be responsible financially, either to the Union or to any Employee, for any failure to make deductions or for making improper or inaccurate deductions or remittances. However, in any instance in which an error occurs in the amount of any deduction pursuant to this Article from an Employee's wages, the Company shall adjust it directly with the Employee. In the event of any mistake by the Company in the amount of its remittance to the Union, the Company shall adjust the amount in a subsequent remittance. The Company's liability for any and all amounts deducted pursuant to the provision of this Article shall terminate at the time it remits the amounts payable to the Union. 22.09 In the event of any action at law against the parties hereto resulting from any deduction or deductions made from payrolls or to be made by the Company pursuant to the first paragraph of this Article, both parties shall cooperate fully in the defense of such action. Each party shall bear its own cost of such defense, except that, if at the request of the Union, counsel fees are incurred, these shall be borne by the Union. Save as aforesaid, the Union shall indemnify and save harmless the Company from any losses, damages, costs, liability or expenses suffered or sustained by the Company as a result of any such deduction or deductions from payrolls. 22.10 Employees shall be provided with a T4 slip indicating the amount of Union dues deducted.

(b) Upon return from an approved Unpaid Leave of Absence, a Nurse shall be reinstated to her or his former position unless the position has been discontinued, in which case the Nurse shall be appointed to an equivalent position.
