Universalism Sample Clauses

UniversalismXxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx once remarked that: ‘The only way to make people’s political judgments more conscious, more explicit, and therefore more scientific, is to bring to the light of day the conception of an ideal society which underlies each man’s opinion, and to discover, if we can, some method of comparing such ideals in respect of the universality, or otherwise, of their appeal.’83 For short, we should try if people’s opinions can be universalized. Only humans, as compared to other biological species, have ethics, because ethical reflection means that a deliberative agent can choose between different options and that the agent can imagine what would be the outcome of the different options for acting. The universalizability of agency means that you will have to imagine that what you do, everybody should be allowed to do, and everybody might actually do. This idea of universalizability of agency has been developed by many philosophers, most notably by Xxxxxxxx Xxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxx: ‘Moral judgments are, I claim, universalizable in only one sense, namely that they entail identical judgments about all cases identical in their universal properties.’84 If you kill someone, every other human should be allowed to do the same. If you steal, everybody should be allowed to steal. Why should there be made an exception for you? By universalizability of action rational moral rules for living together can be derived. Universalizability is already part of ‘folk ethics’, as the 81 ‘Thought experiments’ in Honderich (1995: 875).

  • Weekend Worker A weekend schedule may be developed in order to meet the Home’s need for weekend staff, and individual employees’ preference for a weekend work schedule. A weekend schedule is defined as a schedule in which a full-time weekend worker works a weekly average of thirty (30) hours and is paid for 37.5 hours at their regular straight time hourly rate. The schedule must include two 11.25-hour tours, which fall within a weekend period as determined by the Home and the Union. An employee working a weekend schedule will work every weekend except as provided for in the provisions below. The Employer and the Union may agree to implement weekend worker position(s) if sixty-six and two thirds’ percent (66⅔%) of the full-time and part-time employees who work in the facility/unit are in agreement. The introduction of that schedule and the manner in which the position(s) are filled, shall be determined by the local parties. This schedule may be discontinued by either party with notice as determined by the local parties. The opportunity for an individual employee to discontinue this schedule shall be resolved by the local parties.

Each Home must have the majority agreement of the full-time and part-time employees who vote on the issue to agree on a trial period of up to six months. Once the trial period is complete, each Home must have a minimum of 66⅔% agreement of the full-time and part-time employees who vote on the issue to continue with the new schedule on a permanent basis.
