Closedowns Clause Samples

Closedowns. Where ICC closes down its operations or a section or sections thereof, for the purposes of allowing annual holidays to all or the bulk of the employees in that section or sections concerned, the following provisions shall apply: (a) ICC may stand down for the duration of the closedown all employees in the plant or section or sections concerned and allow employees to take accrued annual leave as per Clause 39.4. (b) all time during which an employee is stood down without pay for the purpose of this subclause shall count as service for the purpose of accruals. Should a dispute arise between management and employees in regard to the close down provisions, that dispute shall be resolved through Clause 11 Grievance and Dispute Settlement Procedure. Provided that the foregoing conditions shall also apply in the event of annual leave being staggered so that employees entitled to annual leave may be broken into two groups which overlap into a closedown of not more than two (2) working weeks (plus statutory holidays occurring therein), and employees with a lesser period of service may be stood down as in paragraph (a) above.
