Pay Reviews. (a) Where the work of a regular position changes sufficiently to warrant a reclassification, the employee, or the Union, involved may request a review of the pay rate for such position in writing. (b) Where a new regular position is established by the Employer, the rate of pay for such new position shall be established by the Employer for a period of six (6) months. The employee(s), or the Union, involved may request a review of this pay rate following the completion of this six (6) month period in writing. (c) The Employer shall complete the requested pay review within ninety (90) days of the employee’s request under subsection (a) or (b) and present its findings, including any applicable rating sheet, job description or other background material, to the Union. If the Union disagrees with the results of the pay review, it may, within seven (7) working days of receipt, require a meeting with a senior representative of the Employer. Within seven (7) working days following such meeting, the Employer shall provide the Union with a response either confirming or modifying the results of its pay review. If a settlement is not reached through this procedure, the Union may, within ten (10) working days of the Employer’s response, refer the matter to arbitration, and the arbitration provisions of Article 11 (Grievance Procedure) shall apply with the necessary changes and as applicable. (d) Pay reviews and arbitrations conducted pursuant to this Article shall be based primarily upon internal comparison to other positions contained in this Collective Agreement, with such internal comparison to be based, unless the Parties otherwise agree, primarily on the job evaluation plan and applicable weightings (which shall be deemed to be an appendix to this Agreement) previously agreed to by the Parties. (e) When a position changes sufficiently to warrant a reclassification and a different rate of pay results, such different rate shall be paid retroactively to the date the request for review was first received. However, in the case of a new position, such rate shall be paid retroactively to the date the employee(s) first assumed the position.
