Common use of VACATION USE AND ACCUMULATION Clause in Contracts

VACATION USE AND ACCUMULATION. Long recognized is the fact that vacation should be taken as earned, so that a person can, through rest and relaxation away from the stress of the work site, re-establish an improved health and mental attitude. Vacation entitlement may only be carried over when written permission is requested and allowed by the employee's supervisor and should be allowed only under extreme circumstances such as a strike situation when a settlement requires a Representative's attendance. Where vacation has been accumulated, steps should be taken to reduce such by the taking of a reasonable portion of such, in addition to an employee's annual vacation credits, with the goal being to eliminate the vacation accumulation, (e.g. one (1) week of accumulation to be taken in addition to earned credits). However, employees shall be allowed to retain a "balance" or "float" of their accumulation. When an employee in a permanent position is about to take approved vacation lasting three (3) consecutive weeks or more, adequate replacement will be provided if such replacement is requested by the employee or the Employer. Requests for vacation replacement will be responded to in sufficient time to allow the employee to appeal the decision to the Workload Complaint Committee who will resolve the matter prior to vacation commencement. The above notwithstanding, the Employer may activate the Workload Complaint Committee should it determine that replacement is not required in single representative offices, in cases of approved vacation lasting 3 consecutive weeks or more. Should the Committee not meet or make a decision at least four (4) weeks prior to vacation commencement, replacement shall be provided. APPENDIX "E" - LETTER OF UNDERSTANDING - REGIONAL TEMPORARY STAFF Temporary staff with at least eighteen (18) months of service who are not working, will receive first consideration for reassignment within their Region, providing they are available for work and taking into consideration seniority, qualifications and costs.
