RATE OF PROGRESSION. Achievement of higher wage rates through scheduled progression within a classification assumes that an employee will achieve a normal rate of progress in the accumulation of the skill, job knowledge, and work performance required. There shall be no restriction of the Company's right to accelerate progression in cases of exceptional merit. Progression may be delayed if an employee has previously been warned in writing, not less than half a progression period or three (3) months, whichever is lesser, in advance of their progression date, about their lack of sufficient progress, unless an issue arises within this period. Under normal circumstances, the delay shall be in increments of half the period of progression, in which time the Company shall further review their performance. An employee who fails to progress following a one (1) progression delay may have further progression withheld, or may be transferred to work of an appropriate nature and wage level, or may be subject to other appropriate action, subject to the employee's right to grieve.
