OCTOBER 8, 1975 This definition will be inserted in Article III, under Section 3.12 and will be 'as provided by State Statute.' Ar Article IX No objections, with additions. Article X Mr. Marier questioned Section 10.3, what if the employee refused to sign? What is the purpose of this section? Mr. Bastain said it is to certify that the employee had received the notice and had read it. If he refuses to acknowledge the receipt by signature, this act should be noted on the report and witnessed. Mr. Bastain said the report could also be sent by certified mail, then he would have to sign for the letter. Mr. Wisenberger noted that the contract reads 'shall sign'. He felt this makes the signature mandatory. Article XI No objections. Article XII Hold. Article XIII No objections - with the addition of Section 13.2 Part -time employees will be reimbursed for court time at the pay scale of their regular employment. Article XIV This deals with call back time and does not deal with overtime No objections. Article XV Articles XVI SICK LEAVE Article XVI Article XVI Mr. Marier felt this article could create a problem especially during vacation time. Mr. Bastain says the classification must be assigned by the Employer, the employee cannot assume the position on his own. Mr. Zelinka asks if there were and incidents in the Metro Area and Mr. Bastain said, No. Mr. Wisenberger reiterated that this can only be done by assignment by the employer, the employee cannot assume the responsibility. there was discussion of requiring the employee to work at the position for five days before being paid the higher wage scale. Mr.Wisenberger felt that this could create a situation whereby the employee works the five days and on the sixth day is put back to the lower scale and reassigned to the higher position on the seventh thus the employer could avoid paying the higher salary. Mr. Marier agreed he had a point, but felt this section could create problems. Mr. Marier felt that an employee should work for what he receives and earn his promotions.
