LONG AND FAITHFUL SERVICE. An employee with twenty (20) or more years of service with the Company who becomes incapacitated so as to be unable to perform his or her regular work to the satisfaction of the Company may, in the sole discretion of the Company, be reassigned to any lateral or lower-graded position to perform productive work in such position at an appropriate rate of pay. The “appropriate rate of pay” shall be the actual rate of pay for the job to which the employee has been reassigned but not less than the following percentage of the employee’s rate in the old job at the time of reassignment under this provision, whichever is greater: 20 up to 25 years of service 80% 25 up to 30 years of service 100% Then, when the actual rate for the job to which the employee has been reassigned equals the rate that the employee is being paid, the employee will be eligible for general wage increases consistent with this Contract. Employees reassigned at the 100% level of pay will be entitled to receive any future wage increases of the grade and step they held prior to reassignment. The Union will be notified of such transfers at the time such transfers are made. An employee designated as “Long and Faithful” may remain in that status until the employee becomes eligible for normal retirement, becomes eligible for retirement by having attained “combination 90” (age + years of credited service) or becomes eligible for Disability Retirement or Long Term Disability benefits, whichever occurs first. At such time, the employee’s “Long and Faithful” status shall end and the employee shall elect to either continue in the Company’s employ at the appropriate rate of pay for the job the employee is then performing or choose from other employment, retirement or other options then available.

Retirement benefits shall be provided for employees who hereafter retire in accordance with the terms of the retirement agreement between the Employer and the Union.
