Salary Schedules (a) The salary schedules shall be incorporated into this Agreement as Appendix V.
(b) Salary schedules will contain Career Enhancement/Growth steps as described in Section 45.6.
Schedule Changes (a) If, in the course of a posted schedule, the Employer:
(i) changes Employees’ scheduled days off without giving 14 days’ notice of the change, they shall be paid 2X their Basic Rate of Pay for all hours worked on what would otherwise have been their off-duty days.
(ii) changes Employees’ scheduled Shift, but not their scheduled days off, without giving 14 days’ notice of the change, they shall be paid 2X their Basic Rate of Pay for all hours worked during the first Shift of the changed schedule.
(b) Employees shall be notified of such changes in their schedule and such changes shall be recorded on the Shift schedule.
(c) An Employee or the Employer may, during the course of a posted schedule, ask to amend scheduled Shifts. Such Employee requests shall be granted where operationally possible without additional cost. Where mutually agreed, the requirements for 14 days’ notice of change and the resultant penalty pay as described in Article 7.04(a) shall not apply. Employees or the Employer should make such requests as far in advance as possible in order to maximize the ability to accommodate the request. Any Shift changes made by mutual agreement shall not violate the scheduling provisions of this Article.
