JOB a. All job vacancies in new or existing jobs within any department shall be posted on the bulletin for a period of ten calendar days prior to the filling of the job vacancy. Employees within all departments, desiring consideration in filling the job vacancy, shall signify their desire by submitting a job bid application during the period in which it is posted. A receipt of the job application shall be given to the employee. All jobs will be awarded from within the job vacancy department within seven (7) calendar days from the end of the ten day posting period. If a job vacancy is not filled from within the department, applications received from employees in other departments during the ten calendar day posting period will be given preference. The employee who is successful in obtaining the job posting will be moved into that posting within thirty (30) calendar days. Where it is not practical to move the successful employee within thirty (30) calendar days the employee will be paid the higher rate of pay effective the thirty-first (31) day after the posting is awarded. The Company will not be unreasonable in determining when it is not possible to move employees within thirty (30) days. If the job vacancy is not filled by the job the Company may hire to fill such vacancy. When a person is hired from outside the Company to fill the job vacancy, the Company will advise the Union the name of the person hired. The job posting notice shall contain a brief job outline, qualifications required for the job, the title and classification of the job, the current shift schedule, and wage rate for the job. The information contained in the job posting notices shall be consistent. Any changes to the job posting notices will be reviewed with two (2) executive members of the Union.

The application of the factors will be as per Article Preamble. Where there has been no successful candidate from within the department, the applicant, if any, with the highest Company seniority from outside the department may be given a ten (10) working day training period from the date of moving to the posted position if the Company assesses that he could reasonably qualify during that period and that he could perform the required work safely. Jobs shall not be considered vacant when employees are not at work because of sickness, accident, or authorized leave of absence. However, if it is known that an employee is to be absent from work because of sickness, accident, or on leave of absence for more than forty-five (45) working days, the job shall be posted as a temporary job and the provisions of this section shall apply. Upon completion of the temporary assignment, an employee shall return to his former job.
