Terms of Training Programmes It is the intent that the training of individual employees in a training programme shall be continuous and uninterrupted. However, in cases involving a permanent and substantial loss of business, other than seasonal, or a department or a plant shutdown or removal of equipment, a trainee's programme may be discontinued. In such cases, the Union and the trainee involved will be notified in writing by Management as to the reasons for the discontinuance. Further, it may be necessary on occasion due to a reduction in the work force to remove the trainee from his programme. When this occurs, the trainee may, in order to maintain the continuity of his training after completion of the appropriate probationary training period (1,000or hours) request a fully qualified skilled employee to accept the assignment. The fully qualified skilled employee, if he agrees, will be paid his regular rate of pay for all hours during which he is working on another job in the place of the trainee. No other employee except the trainee and the fully qualified employee involved shall be affected by this move. An employee entering the Trade and Craft or group shall have seniority according to his date of entry into the group for all purposes within the group.

During these additional two Periods, he shall be paid Job Class 20). It is the intent of this Article to set up guides through which the purpose of the Training Programmes may be achieved. If an employee is selected to enter a training programme for a skilled classification and his rate at such time is above the minimum starting rate of the Wage Progression Schedule for such training programme, such employee's rate will not be reduced but will not be subject to periodic progress adjustments in rate until such time as his length of training would give him a higher rate in accordance with the Wage Progression Schedule. Training in general will be on-the-job. However, a trainee may be required to attend Company conducted classes off-the-job or take related vocational or technical courses (such as shop mathematics and blueprint reading). When the Company designates the related training outlined in the Article to be received from schools which require the payment of tuition fees for such courses of study, the Company will reimburse the employee for the cost of such tuition fees upon the satisfactory completion of each course. (Tuition fees, as referred to, herein, will include such charges as registration fees and books, but will not include any other miscellaneous items not required as part of the course).

Time spent in home study, night or correspondence school work will not be paid for. Adequate records for each trainee shall be maintained, showing his progress, the work processes covered and the related training. The trainee shall be advised monthly of his progress, in the presence of his union representative.
