Time Bound. It is in the interest of both parties that the organizing campaign be conducted expeditiously. The Union is therefore obligated to notify management of its intention to conduct a formal organizing drive before it begins. The date of this notification will “start the clock”. The entire campaign, including the consent election, will be concluded in 90 days. It is the intent of the parties that the 90 day time frame will include discussion and agreement on the unit. In the event the parties are unable to agree on the unit, the dispute resolution process set forth below will be utilized and the time period will be extended by the number of days required to reach agreement on the unit, but in no event will the total campaign, including resolution of the scope of the bargaining unit and the consent election process, exceed 120 days. If the employees vote not to be represented, the Union agrees not to initiate another campaign (nor continue the current campaign) in that same work group for 12 months from the date of the conclusion of the campaign. This would not preclude the local union from having contact with the workers in the group outside of the workplace. If the employees vote to be represented, collective bargaining over the terms and conditions of employment will commence within 60 days and any resulting collective bargaining agreement will apply only to the agreed upon unit.
Time Bound. The employee will be made aware when the expected result is to be achieved. Critical elements should include milestones, or a schedule, and all dates should be clearly communicated so that the employee will have an understanding of what is expected and by when it is expected.
Time Bound. Defined with an ultimate deadline and benchmarks reflecting the nature and gravity of the performance deficiency with timeframes to measure progress as appropriate When the PDP is a result of the evaluation or an observation, the goals and actions must reflect and reference the relevant dimension and indicator. If there are concerns that do not clearly align themselves with a specific indicator, it may still be the target of a PDP and identified as a Stand-Alone PDP. In such cases, the PDP may be prefaced with the statement: “Although the following does not link directly with a performance indicator, there is a matter/situation/incident that falls within your area of responsibility/supervision that needs to be brought to your attention for action.” Then, insert a summary of the matter/situation/incident followed by a SMART goal plan of action.
