Section I Definitions
Section Four Notwithstanding any provision of this agreement to the contrary, the Employer will have the right and duty to take all actions necessary to comply with the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. 2101, et seq. (ADA), or corresponding state statutes. Upon request the Employer will meet and discuss specific concerns identified by the Union; however, this shall not delay any actions taken to comply with the ADA.”
Section B The Employer agrees that local Union representative officers, and AFSCME staff representatives shall have reasonable access to the Employer's premise for the sole purpose of the administration of this Agreement, provided that said Union personnel obtain prior approval from the Employer and that said access does not substantially interfere with the operating needs of the Employer. By mutual agreement of the parties, and prior arrangement with the Employer, Union staff representatives may call a meeting during working hours to prevent, resolve, or clarify emergency matters. SECTION C Local Union representatives shall be allowed time off without pay for legitimate Union business, such as State and National Conventions, Union meetings, Committee and/or Board meetings, training sessions, or conferences, and shall be allowed such time off as does not unreasonably interfere with the operating needs of the Employers and provided that the employee gives prior notice to the employer and receives prior approval therein. One (1) of the permitted days off may be considered a “paid day off” for one local representative officer during each calendar year. Nothing shall prevent an employee from using any accumulated time to cover such approved absence.
Section C An employee who terminates a leave during the school year must apply for and be appointed to a vacant position.
SECTION I - DEFINITIONS As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings ascribed herein unless otherwise stated or reasonably required by the Agreement, and other forms of any defined words shall have a meaning parallel thereto.
Section Two The Union but not any employee shall have the right to appeal in writing by submitting data, views, arguments, or a request for a hearing relative to reevaluation of a class or classes of positions allocated to the State Compensation Plan. Within sixty (60) days after the receipt of such written data or holding the requested hearing, the Commissioner of Administrative Services or his/her designee shall answer the appeal.
Section XII A shall not apply where the Settling State at issue meets the eligibility criteria for and is entitled to Incentive Payment A for the Payment Year at issue, except as expressly provided therein. For the avoidance of doubt, because all Settling States are deemed eligible for Incentive Payment A for Payment Years 1 and 2 under Section IV.F.1.c, a suspension of Payments under Section XII.A.2 shall not apply to any Settling States for those Payment Years.
Section E Any employee who works on a designated holiday shall receive eight (8) hours holiday pay plus one and one-half (1 1/2) times his regular rate of pay for all hours worked on the holiday.
