Permanent Accommodations Clause Samples
The Permanent Accommodations clause defines the obligations and arrangements for providing long-term or indefinite housing or lodging to a party, typically in the context of employment, relocation, or service agreements. This clause outlines the standards, duration, and conditions under which such accommodations must be maintained, and may specify responsibilities for costs, maintenance, and suitability of the living space. Its core function is to ensure that the party entitled to permanent accommodations receives stable and appropriate housing, thereby preventing disputes over living arrangements and clarifying each party’s responsibilities.
Permanent Accommodations. (a) A nurse in need of permanent accommodation may be accommodated in a temporary or short term arrangement until a permanent arrangement is established. The Employer will advise the Union of offers of permanent accommodation. A trial period of no less than thirty (30) days will be completed to evaluate the successfulness of the accommodation. In the event the accommodation placement is unsuccessful, the parties will meet to determine next steps. Once a position is deemed suitable by the parties, a permanent accommodation agreement is signed, and the nurse will be removed from the list.
(b) The parties recognize that there may be more than one nurse requiring permanent accommodation where the position meets their restrictions and/or limitations. In such cases the parties agree that in complying with Articles I.3, I.4, I.5, and I.6 (a) above, they must first consider the skills, ability and experience of the nurses. They may then balance additional factors, including but not limited to:
i) Ability to acquire skills
ii) Seniority
iii) Path of least disruption in the workplace When more than one nurse is deemed by the committee to be suitable for a particular position and the factors set out above are relatively equal, seniority shall govern.
