Recognition, Rights and Duties of Stewards. An employee may have the assistance of a Union representative in all matters relating to labour relations between the Union and the Employer. The Employer recognizes the Union's right to select stewards and alternates to represent employees in each of the areas served by the Employer. Only one xxxxxxx at a time will deal with a specific issue arising out of the duties of a xxxxxxx. The Union agrees to provide the Employer with a list of employees designated as stewards. A xxxxxxx, or her alternate, shall obtain the permission of her immediate supervisor or designate before leaving her work to perform her duties as a xxxxxxx. Leave for this purpose shall be without loss of regular pay and shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that time spent at meetings with the Employer regarding grievances or disciplinary matters shall be paid and shall be considered time worked. On resuming her normal duties, the xxxxxxx shall notify her supervisor.
