3 Company offer- Teamsters Local Union No. 91 page 1 ARTICLE 1 - RECOGNITION 1.1 The Employer recognizes Teamsters Local Union No. 91 as the bargaining agent for all employees of Design Filtration Microzone Inc. within the City of Ottawa, save and except foremen, persons above the rank of foreman, office clerical and sales staff, technical staff, persons regularly employed for not more than twenty-four (24) hours per week and students employed during the school vacation period. 1.2 Supervisory employees shall not normally perform bargaining unit work except in assisting and/or instructing employees; in the event production difficulties are encountered; in order to avoid bottlenecks and/or to comply with customer needs or demands; in order to develop methods or techniques of production; or in the event regular employees are not available. The intent of this provision is that supervisory employees will not be assigned to work for the purpose of displacing an employee covered by this Agreement, or for the purpose of the avoidance of scheduling overtime. However, it is understood that, because of the Company's business, a "working foreman" may, in addition to his supervisory duties, perform bargaining unit work as needed to maintain efficiency and proper work flow in the shop or on the job site. In the shop, only one nonbargaining employee at a time may perform the duties of "working foreman". ARTICLE 2 - UNION SECURITY 2.1 As a condition of employment, new employees hired after October 6, 1986 must make application to become members of the Union, upon completion of the probationary period. Regular Union Dues, Initiation Fees, Assessment and Arrears in the amount specified by the Union in writing shall be deducted weekly from each pay of all employees covered by this Agreement. Such money so deducted shall be remitted to the Local Union on or before the 15th day of the month in which the Dues are deducted. The application for membership will be forwarded to the Union by the Employer with the first Dues payment. The employer will deduct an amount equal to Union Dues from the pay of any student or part-time employee who works in excess of eight (8) hours in any month. As a condition of continued employment, employees must become and remain members in good standing with the Union. 2.2 The remittance to the Union shall specify the employees from whose pay such deductions were made. The amount of annual Union Dues shall be shown on each employee's T-4 slip. 2.3 A steward has his regular work to perform on behalf of the Employer and when it is necessary to service a grievance, he shall not leave his work without the permission of his Supervisor. When resuming his regular work, he will report to his Supervisor and if requested, give a reasonable explanation as to his absence. With this understanding, the Employer will continue the pay of the Steward for the regular hours lost in handling the grievance. 2.4 The Union agrees to indemnify the Employer and save it harmless against any and all claims which may arise in complying with provisions of Articles 2.1 & 2.2.
