Description and Classification of New or Changed Jobs. A. The top grade for existing occupations shall be deemed an agreed-to grade as shown in Seniority Sequence Diagrams Agreement in Appendix A. B. The Manager of Personnel Services and Union Base Rate Representative shall execute a study to determine a system of evaluation to classify the bargaining unit jobs. Once completed, the Company shall have one (1) year from that date to classify the jobs in question. Should such classification produce a higher grade than the agreed-to grade, all retroactive liability shall be dated from the signing of the agreement. C. It is the intention of the parties that the system of evaluation will reproduce as closely as possible the agreed-to grade in Seniority Sequence Diagrams Agreement in Appendix A. Should the parties be unable to reach agreement on a system of evaluation, the Chairman of the Grievance Procedure and the Division Manager of Labor Relations shall develop a method of resolving the differences. D. If the Company establishes a new job or changes the job content of an existing job, a new job description and classification utilizing the system in place at the time will be assigned to the position on an interim basis. The Union will have a right to challenge the new or changed job through the grievance procedure.
