Common use of Temporary Supervisor Clause in Contracts

Temporary Supervisor. The Company may, if it deems necessary, appoint from among volunteers, a qualified Bargaining Unit employee, who is at the maximum wage rate for the employee's job title, to act temporarily as a supervisor over other employees within the appropriate work group. Employees at the maximum wage rate with seniority shall be given full consideration before the appointment is made. However, seniority shall not be the governing factor and shall not prevent the appointment of an employee with less seniority who is better qualified for the appointment. If there are no such employees at the maximum wage rate in the group to be considered, another employee may be appointed. When an employee is acting as temporary supervisor, the employee shall perform only those duties normally performed by the supervisor the employee is replacing.
