Should changes become necessary, the Employer will give the Employee notice of such changes of not less than four (4) calendar days.

(b) An Employee who reports for work on a working day they have not been previously scheduled for, with less than 2 hours' notice, shall receive payment from the shift start time given that the Employee responds in a reasonable timeframe. INCLEMENT WEATHER 5.12 The Employer will, where operationally feasible, provide inside work in periods of inclement weather during periods Employees would normally be scheduled to work. In the event any Employee(s) cannot be accommodated as per above, preference to remain or leave the workplace will be given in seniority order, subject to the following: (a) the Employee has completed their probationary period, and (b) the Employee is normally employed on a year round basis. 5.13 Each Employee who reports to work but for reasons of inclement weather, is unable to perform all or any of the day’s work will be paid for those hours in attendance at work. In the event that the Employee is sent home, they shall be a paid a minimum of four (4) hours unless their scheduled shift is less than four (4) hours by reason of Article 5.9 in which case they shall be paid the minimum so prescribed. Inclement weather shall be defined as severe or harsh environmental conditions that can include: extreme heat or cold, snowstorms, ice storms, hurricanes, tornados, flooding or any unforeseen act of nature. 5.14 The Employer may need to adjust staffing requirements during a shift due to inclement weather conditions. To accomplish this, the following procedure is to be followed: The immediate supervisor (who may have had the matter drawn to their attention by the Lead Hand) shall, upon concluding that inclement weather exists in their work area, will contact the Supervisor who will in turn review the conditions with the Director or designate. Once a staffing decision is made it shall be applied uniformly as other immediate supervisors call in to advise of conditions in their particular areas. It is to be noted that weather or other conditions prevailing in one part of the City are not necessarily identical to those prevailing in another, making it possible that work can continue in some areas and not others. All relevant factors will be taken into consideration by the managerial staff responsible for the work in question, as the case may be. The immediate supervisor will then advise the Employees under their supervision of their decision, and Employees will also be notified to either: (a) continue with the present work if completion is urgent or essential in order to restore service or to make work locations safe for vehicular or pedestrian traffic, or (b) make work locations safe and discontinue operations. Where an instruction from an immediate supervisor has been given to close down an operation during the first four hour period of any work day, Employees so instructed will be reassigned to other work or be returned to the appropriate reporting location until the expiry of the four hour period. Where an instruction from an immediate supervisor to close down because of weather conditions becomes necessary in the afternoon of any work day, the work area will be made safe and secure before the job site is vacated for the remainder of the day. 5.15 In the event that weather conditions should change, the Employer will endeavour to recall Employees sent home under Section 5.13 of this Article, but the four (4) hour minimum shall not be duplicated in the same day.
