Changed Classification Clause Samples

Changed Classification. If the Union claims that the duties of an existing classification have been changed to an extent sufficient to alter the classification and/or rate, the Union may request to meet with the Employer to review the classification and/or rate. If within 30 working days of the submission of such request, which shall be in writing, and the request shall specify any changes in duties and any proposed change in the rate of pay, mutual agreement cannot be reached, the difference may be referred to arbitration under the provisions of Article 9. Any change in rate resulting from discussion between the parties, or following a reference to arbitration, shall be retroactive to the date the Union submitted its request to the Employer.
