N ew Classifications. When a new classification in the bargaining unit is established by the Employer or the Employer makes a substantial change in the job content of an existing classification, the Employer shall advise the Union of such new or substantially changed classification and the rate of pay which is established. If so requested within thirty (30) calendar days of such advice the Employer agrees to meet with the Union to permit the Union to make representations with respect to the appropriate rate of pay, provided any such meetings shall not delay the implementation of the new or substantially changed classification. Where the Union challenges the rate established by the Employer and the matter is not resolved following the meeting with the Union, the matter may be referred to arbitration in accordance with the arbitration provisions contained in this collective agreement, it being understood that any Arbitration Board shall be limited to establishing an appropriate rate based on the relationship existing among other classifications within the bargaining unit and the duties and responsibilities involved. Each change in the rate established by the Employer either through meetings with the Union or by a Board of Arbitration shall be retroactive to the time at which the new or substantially changed classification was filled.
N ew Classifications. Where a new classification, which is covered by this Agreement, is established by the Employer and no rate for such classification is provided in the Agreement, the Employer will determine the rate of pay for such new classification and notify the Union of the same. If the Union challenges the rate, it shall have the right to request a meeting with the Employer to endeavour to negotiate a mutually satisfactory rate. Such request shall be made within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of notice from the Employer of such new classification and rate. Any change mutually agreed to resulting from such meeting shall be retroactive to the date the notice of the new rate is given by the Employer. If the Parties are unable to agree, the dispute concerning the new rate may be submitted to arbitration as provided in this Agreement within fifteen (15) days of such meeting. The decision of the Arbitrator shall be based on the relationship established by comparison with other classifications within the Employer's undertaking and operation, having regard to the requirement of such classifications.
