Reduction of Board. When employees are receiving wages of five hundred fifty ($550.00) dollars or less per week, upon request of the Local Union, the Employer shall lay off the necessary number of men so that the lower twenty-five percent (25%) of the employees can earn five hundred fifty ($550.00) dollars or more per week. This shall be based on two (2) previous weeks. Not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the seniority board are to be laid off at any one time unless there is a major decline in business; then the Local Union and the Employer shall decide the number of employees to be laid off, consistent with good business practices, so that the employees remaining can earn a wage of five hundred fifty ($550.00) dollars or more per week. The above is not to be construed as imposing a limitation on earnings. If the Local Union and the Employer do not agree on the number of employees to be laid off under the above procedure, this disagreement shall be considered a grievance and shall be submitted to the appropriate Area Committee who shall render a final decision. After the appropriate Area Committee renders a decision favorable to the Union, or is unable to reach a decision, if the Employer still refuses to cut the board, then in such case the Union shall have the right to strike notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary and the Employer shall be obligated to pay all employees under this Agreement for all time lost.
