Common use of Supervisors Working Clause in Contracts

Supervisors Working. (a) The Employer agrees that the function of supervisors is the super- vision of Employees and not the performance of the work of the em- ployees they supervise. Accordingly, the Employer agrees that super- visors or other employees of the Employer who are not members of the bargaining unit shall not perform any bargaining unit work, ex- cept to train employees or demonstrate safety, or as otherwise provid- ed in the applicable Supplement, Rider or Addendum. However, in the case of Acts of God, supervisors shall comply with the proce- dures in subsections (b) and (c) and may only perform bargaining unit work until bargaining unit employees are available. The Em- ployer shall make every reasonable effort to maintain a sufficient workforce to staff its operations with bargaining unit employees. The Employer also agrees that supervisors or other employees of the Em- ployer who are not members of the bargaining unit shall not perform bargaining unit work in preparing the work areas before the start of the Employer’s hub, preload or reload operation, nor shall the Em- ployer send any bargaining unit employee home and then have such employee’s work performed by a supervisor or other employees of the Employer who are not a member of the bargaining unit.
