DISCHARGE AND DISCIPLINE (a) No employee, who has acquired seniority, shall be discharged or disciplined except for just and sufficient cause. The Union agrees to co-operate in an endeavour to correct inefficiencies of employees which might necessitate disciplinary action. Discharge or discipline grievances may be settled by confirming the Company’s decision or by reinstating the discharged or suspended employee with full compensation for lost time, less interim earnings if applicable, or by any other arrangement which is just and equitable in the opinion of the parties or an Arbitrator. (b) The Owner agrees that whenever an interview is held with an employee regarding their work or conduct which becomes part of their record, the store xxxxxxx on duty or another bargaining unit employee who is at work chosen by the employee shall be present. The party representing the Union will leave the meeting if requested to leave by the employee. (a) All disciplinary warnings or reprimands which are placed in an employee's record and all notices of demotion for cause, discharge or suspension, shall be in writing and shall contain the reason for the warning, reprimand, suspension or discharge. One copy shall be given to the employee and one copy shall be given to the Employer and one copy shall be emailed to the Union Office as soon as possible, but no more than seven (7) days of the incident giving rise thereto. (b) A disciplinary warning or reprimand which is not in writing shall not be adduced in evidence against an employee in any subsequent disciplinary proceedings in which the employee is involved. (c) Disciplinary warnings and/or reprimands which pre-date a disciplinary action by more than one (1) year shall not be adduced in evidence against an employee in any subsequent disciplinary proceedings in which the employee is involved. Notwithstanding, disciplinary warnings and/or reprimands arising from Harassment or Violence in the Workplace shall not be subject to this provision.
SUSPENSION AND DISCIPLINE 21.01 Discipline may be imposed where just cause exists and will be levied in a timely fashion. Generally, discipline is intended to correct undesirable behaviour or conduct and, where appropriate, shall be progressive in nature. 21.02 Prior to any discipline being imposed, the employee will be given notice in writing to attend a meeting, during which there shall be an opportunity for full discussion between the employee and the employee’s Manager. The notice will contain the subject matter to be discussed at the meeting and the employee shall be advised of his/her right to have an Association representative attend as an advisor. The management representative also has the right to have a labour relations representative attend as an advisor. At the meeting the employee and the Association representative may make representations and ask questions concerning the events and circumstances. Unless otherwise agreed, the unavailability of an advisor will not delay the meeting for more than one (1) working day from the date of notification to the employee. 21.03 When an employee is required to attend a meeting, the purpose of which is to render a disciplinary decision concerning him or her, the employee is entitled to have, at his or her request, a representative of the Association attend the meeting. Where practicable, the employee shall receive a minimum of one (1) day’s notice of such a meeting. The Employer will agree where possible to an additional day of extension where the Association representative is unavailable. 21.04 The employee and the Association representative shall be notified in writing of any disciplinary action except an oral warning, taken against the employee by the Company within a reasonable period of time of that action having been taken. 21.05 When an employee is required to attend a meeting, the purpose of which is to demote or terminate him/her for non-disciplinary reasons, he/she is entitled to have, at his/her request, a representative of the Association attend the meeting. Where practicable, the employee shall receive a minimum of one (1) day’s notice of such a meeting. The Employer will agree where possible to an additional day of extension where the Association representative is unavailable. 21.06 When any discipline is found to be unjustified all documents referring to the discipline imposed shall be removed as soon as reasonably possible from the employee’s record and destroyed. 21.07 NAV CANADA agrees not to introduce as evidence in a hearing relating to disciplinary action any document or written statement concerning the conduct of an employee unless that employee has been provided with a copy of that document or statement within a reasonable period before that hearing. 21.08 Any document or written statement to disciplinary action, which may have been placed on the NAV CANADA file of an employee shall be removed and destroyed after two (2) years have elapsed since the disciplinary action was taken, provided that no further disciplinary action has been recorded during this period. The Employer shall inform the employee in writing of the destruction of any document or written statement related to disciplinary action. 21.09 The NAV CANADA Code of Business Conduct will not be interpreted as restricting an employee from exercising his or her obligations flowing from the ethical standards of the professional body to which the employee belongs. 21.10 NAV CANADA agrees to make available to each employee covered by this agreement the NAV CANADA Code of Business Conduct and any subsequent amendments made thereto. 21.11 Employees who, in good faith, raise a concern or report any clear or suspected illegal, unethical or improper acts or activities shall not be disciplined nor adversely affected as a result of reporting the violation.
Printing and Distribution The School District will, at its own expense, print sufficient copies of this Agreement for present and new employees.

DISMISSAL, SUSPENSION AND DISCIPLINE 14 ARTICLE 12 - SENIORITY 16
Results and Discussion Table 1 (top) shows the root mean square error (RMSE) between the three tests for different numbers of topics. These results show that all three tests largely agree with each other but as the sample size (number of topics) decreases, the agreement decreases. In line with the results found for 50 topics, the randomization and bootstrap tests agree more with the t-test than with each other. We looked at pairwise scatterplots of the three tests at the different topic sizes. While there is some disagreement among the tests at large p-values, i.e. those greater than 0.5, none of the tests would predict such a run pair to have a significant difference. More interesting to us is the behavior of the tests for run pairs with lower p-values. Table 1 (bottom) shows the RMSE among the three tests for run pairs that all three tests agreed had a p-value greater than 0.0001 and less than 0.5. In contrast to all pairs with p-values 0.0001 (Table 1 top), these run pairs are of more importance to the IR researcher since they are the runs that require a statistical test to judge the significance of the per- formance difference. For these run pairs, the randomization and t tests are much more in agreement with each other than the bootstrap is with either of the other two tests. Looking at scatterplots, we found that the bootstrap tracks the t-test very well but shows a systematic bias to produce p-values smaller than the t-test. As the number of topics de- creases, this bias becomes more pronounced. Figure 1 shows a pairwise scatterplot of the three tests when the number of topics is 10. The randomization test also tends to produce smaller p-values than the t-test for run pairs where the t- test estimated a p-value smaller than 0.1, but at the same time, produces some p-values greater than the t-test’s. As Figure 1 shows, the bootstrap consistently gives smaller p- values than the t-test for these smaller p-values. While the bootstrap and the randomization test disagree with each other more than with the t-test, Figure 1 shows that for a low number of topics, the randomization test shows less noise in its agreement with the bootstrap com- pared to the t-test for small p-values.

Use and Disclosure All Confidential Information of a party will be held in confidence by the other party with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but not less than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will disclose in any manner Confidential Information of the other party in any form to any person or entity without the other party’s prior consent. However, each party may disclose relevant aspects of the other party’s Confidential Information to its officers, affiliates, agents, subcontractors and employees to the extent reasonably necessary to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement and such disclosure is not prohibited by applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, each party will implement physical and other security measures and controls designed to protect (a) the security and confidentiality of Confidential Information; (b) against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information; and (c) against any unauthorized access to or use of Confidential Information.
