Eligibility of Benefits. Section 9.5 All new employees hired after the effective date of this Agreement will begin receiving benefits on the nearest eligibility date following the completion of ninety (90) days of employment from the date of hire. Employees who work twenty (20) hours per week but less than thirty-five (35) hours per week shall be eligible to receive pro-rated paid leave time and insurance coverage, sixty (60%) percent of which shall be paid for by the Employer provided the employee elects full coverage. Employees who work twenty (20) hours per week but less than thirty-five (35) hours per week and are currently receiving full insurance coverage shall continue to receive full insurance coverage paid for by the Employer.
Eligibility of Benefits. Only full-time and part time employees, who have successfully completed their probationary period, are entitled to benefits in accordance with the provisions of the Employer’s Employee Handbook. Employees working fewer than twenty-four (24) hours per week, per diem, and temporary employees are not eligible to receive benefits other than those required by law. In the event that the Employer ceases, for whatever reason, to use twelve (12) hour work shifts in this Facility, then only full-time employees and those part time employees working a minimum of thirty (30) hours per week shall be entitled to benefits in accordance with the provisions of the Employer's Employee Handbook.
Eligibility of Benefits. During negotiations for the first collective agreement the required number of hours normally worked in order to become entitled and eligible for certain benefits were increased from 17.5 to 21 hours per week. These benefits include but are not limited to sick leave accumulation and carryover; vacation entitlement and pay; personal paid day; entitlement to group benefits and participation in the Retirement Savings Plan. It was agreed between the employer and the union that in the transition from 17.5 hour to 21 hours all current employees who would be adversely affected by the change of required hours will continue to receive the greater entitlement. Therefore, at the time of ratification, all current employees who regularly work between 17.5 hours and 21 hours will be ‘grandfathered’ and treated as though they were working 21 hours or more.
Eligibility of Benefits. The number of years of continuous service required to be eligible for an early or disability retirement allowance is 10 years, and for a vested retirement allowance is 5 years. The other requirements for eligibility for early and disability retirement allowances will not be changed.
Eligibility of Benefits a. Exhaustion of all accumulated sick and personal leave
Eligibility of Benefits. As provided in Section 10B, upon completion of ninety-one (91) calendar days an employee shall be eligible for insurance benefits at the start of the month following his/her completion of ninety-one (91) calendar days. Insurance benefits will be determined by full or part-time status.
