Section F. Retroactivity. Settlement of any grievance may or may not be retroactive as the equities of the particular case may demand as determined by the Arbitrator. In any case where it is determined that the award should be applied retroactively, except for administrative errors relating to the payment of wages, the maximum period of retroactivity allowed shall be a date not earlier than 180 calendar days prior to the initiation of the written grievance at the First Step. In cases of administrative error, the employee shall be entitled to be made whole for up to 26 pay periods from when the Employer was made aware of such error. Employees who voluntarily terminate their employment will have their grievances immediately withdrawn unless such grievance directly affects their status upon termination or a claim of vested money interest in which cases the employee may benefit by any later settlement of a grievance in which they were involved. All claims of back wages based on involuntary separation shall be limited to the amount of base, holiday, and shift premium wages, excluding incidental overtime, the employee would otherwise have earned, less any unemployment compensation, workers’ compensation, long-term disability benefits, social security benefits, welfare payments or compensation from any employment or other source received during the period for which the back pay is awarded; however, earnings from approved supplemental employment shall not be deducted.
