Procedure and Application Sample Clauses

Procedure and Application. Employees within each worksite may, by majority vote, request an alternative schedule if: a. Alternative schedules would not result in increased costs to Management; b. The provisions of the attached working agreement (Appendix B) are satisfied for the duration of the alternative schedules; and c. There is no adverse impact on the level of service. Management shall respond in writing as soon as practicable to requests to institute or terminate alternative schedules for employees at a worksite. Whenever a request is denied, management's response shall include rationale for the denial. Any alternative schedule agreements that are approved may be reviewed by Management at least annually. Approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Failure to implement, or the termination of, alternative schedules at a worksite shall not be subject to the grievance procedure, although the Association may request a Special Conference under the provisions of Article 6. The preceding paragraph notwithstanding, failure or refusal of the Employer to implement alternative schedules for non-specialist, uniformed employees at posts or teams as described in this part is grievable following a special conference.

  • Claims Procedure and Arbitration In the event a dispute arises over benefits under this Executive Plan and benefits are not paid to the Executive (or to the Executive's beneficiary(ies) in the case of the Executive's death) and such claimants feel they are entitled to receive such benefits, then a written claim must be made to the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator named above within sixty (60) days from the date payments are refused. The Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator shall review the written claim and if the claim is denied, in whole or in part, they shall provide in writing within sixty (60) days of receipt of such claim the specific reasons for such denial, reference to the provisions of this Executive Plan upon which the denial is based and any additional material or information necessary to perfect the claim. Such written notice shall further indicate the additional steps to be taken by claimants if a further review of the claim denial is desired. A claim shall be deemed denied if the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator fail to take any action within the aforesaid sixty-day period. If claimants desire a second review they shall notify the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator in writing within sixty (60) days of the first claim denial. Claimants may review this Executive Plan or any documents relating thereto and submit any written issues and comments it may feel appropriate. In their sole discretion, the Named Fiduciary and Plan Administrator shall then review the second claim and provide a written decision within sixty (60) days of receipt of such claim. This decision shall likewise state the specific reasons for the decision and shall include reference to specific provisions of the Plan Agreement upon which the decision is based. If claimants continue to dispute the benefit denial based upon completed performance of this Executive Plan or the meaning and effect of the terms and conditions thereof, then claimants may submit the dispute to an arbitrator for final arbitration. The arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the Bank and the claimants. The arbitrator shall operate under any generally recognized set of arbitration rules. The parties hereto agree that they and their heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns shall be bound by the decision of such arbitrator with respect to any controversy properly submitted to it for determination. Where a dispute arises as to the Bank's discharge of the Executive "for cause," such dispute shall likewise be submitted to arbitration as above described and the parties hereto agree to be bound by the decision thereunder.

  • GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE AND ARBITRATION 8.01 Any employee or the Union has the right to lodge a grievance with respect to any matter arising out of the interpretation, application or alleged violation of this Agreement. 8.02 At the time formal discipline is imposed or at any stage of the grievance procedure, including the complaint stage, a nurse is entitled to be represented by her/his union representative. In the case of suspension or discharge, the Employer shall notify the nurse of this right in advance. The Employer also agrees, as a good labour relations practice, it will also notify the Bargaining Unit. 8.03 It is the intent of the parties that complaints of employees shall be adjusted as quickly as possible, and it is understood that the Union has no grievance concerning an individual nurse until the Director of Care or her/his designate has been given an opportunity of adjusting the complaint. Such complaint shall be discussed with the Director of Care within fifteen (15) working days after the circumstances giving rise to it have occurred. This discussion may include consultation, advice and assistance from others. If there is no settlement within nine (9) working days, it shall then be taken up as a grievance within nine (9) working days in the following manner and sequence: The Union may present the grievance to the Administrator, or her/his designate, who shall render her/his decision within five (5) working days after the presentation of the grievance to her/him. The parties may, if they so desire, meet to discuss the grievance at a time and place suitable to both parties. If the decision is unsatisfactory, then the grievance may be presented in the following manner: Within ten (10) working days after the decision is given at Step No. 1, the aggrieved employee, and/or the Grievance Committee shall meet with a committee appointed by the Board of Directors of the Manor to consider the grievance. At this stage the employee and/or the Grievance Committee may be accompanied by a representative of the Union. The decision of the committee of the Board of Directors will be rendered in writing to the Labour Relations Officer and the bargaining unit representative within ten (10) working days following such a meeting.
