EMPLOYEES WITH TWENTY (20) YEARS OR MORE OF SERVICE: shall not be required to work on the Christmas Day holiday or the New Year’s Day holiday, except as set forth below. If there are not enough volunteers to cover a unit or units, employees will be mandated to work in reverse order of seniority on a rotating basis and be paid the three hundred dollar bonus.
$300 BONUS: Employees not scheduled to work on Christmas Day or New Year’s Day who volunteer to work the day will be paid a three hundred dollar ($300.00) bonus in addition to their regular holiday pay.
WORKING THE HOLIDAY SUPERSEDES WORKING THE WEEKEND: If a holiday falls on a weekend that is not an employee’s typical weekend to work, but it is their holiday to work, they shall be required to work the holiday.
DIRECT DEALING: is a situation where an authority figure deals directly with an individual concerning the terms and conditions of employment instead of dealing with the union representative.
Examples include terms that fall outside of the contract.
WAGES: (negotiating compensation to work double time, differentials, etc.)
HOURS: (schedule change, coming into work for 4hrs and being paid for 12hrs)
It’s a violation, and charges can be filed when an employer bypasses the union and deals directly with an employee on matters subject to negotiations.
It is extremely important to realize this will have a negative impact on negotiations has the contract is set to expire on AUGUST 14, 2023.
