Grounds II Sample Clauses
The 'Grounds II' clause defines specific circumstances or reasons under which certain actions or decisions may be taken within the context of an agreement. Typically, this clause outlines additional or alternative grounds beyond those listed in a primary 'Grounds' section, such as further justifications for termination, suspension, or modification of the contract. For example, it may specify that a party can terminate the agreement if regulatory changes occur or if certain performance metrics are not met. The core function of this clause is to provide clarity and flexibility by enumerating additional situations that justify particular contractual actions, thereby reducing ambiguity and potential disputes.

2. A reality of the Education Assistance and Youth Worker programs is that circumstances may arise requiring the granting of additional hours to employees in part-time positions during the school year where posting the position would disrupt the program by reason of disrupting established relationships that are expected to endure to the end of the school term. In that context the Union agrees that additional hours may be granted to part-time employees in those classifications during the school year on a temporary basis without posting. If the requirement continues beyond the school year, the position involving the increased hours will be posted.
3. The parties acknowledge that the same potential for disruption exists where the hours in a particular position in the Education Assistant or Youth Worker classifications are reduced or eliminated, thus triggering a right in the employee to bump into other positions and perhaps disrupt relationships. The Union agrees in those circumstances that the Employer can make up the hours at another location on a temporary basis for the duration of the school year.
