Likewise those working in the southern area would only be asked to travel to plants in the southern area. Employees will not be required to travel for a period greater than six (6) continuous weeks. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay a traveling allowance to employees who use their private vehicle in the above circumstances at the rate of: • motor cycle – 17c per km or part thereof; or • motor car – 28c per km or part thereof. This payment shall only apply for the distance in excess of that which the employee would reasonably travel between his or her usual pace of residence and the usual place of employment to compensate those employees that may be required to assist at other operations.

Once an employee commits to working a certain number of hours per week, the employee will be required to accept client assignments up to that number of hours. Current employees who wish to increase or decrease their weekly hours must submit the request in writing to the Employer at least two (2) weeks in
