Maternity/Paternity Leave Solely for purposes of determining whether the Employee incurs a Break in Service under any provision of this Plan, the Advisory Committee must credit Hours of Service during an Employee's unpaid absence period due to maternity or paternity leave. The Advisory Committee considers an Employee on maternity or paternity leave if the Employee's absence is due to the Employee's pregnancy, the birth of the Employee's child, the placement with the Employee of an adopted child, or the care of the Employee's child immediately following the child's birth or placement. The Advisory Committee credits Hours of Service under this paragraph on the basis of the number of Hours of Service the Employee would receive if he were paid during the absence period or, if the Advisory Committee cannot determine the number of Hours of Service the Employee would receive, on the basis of 8 hours per day during the absence period. The Advisory Committee will credit only the number (not exceeding 501) of Hours of Service necessary to prevent an Employee's Break in Service. The Advisory Committee credits all Hours of Service described in this paragraph to the computation period in which the absence period begins or, if the Employee does not need these Hours of Service to prevent a Break in Service in the computation period in which his absence period begins, the Advisory Committee credits these Hours of Service to the immediately following computation period.
Liability Protection Whenever an action or proceeding for damages is filed against any Bargaining Unit employee arising from his/her act or omission while performing his/her official duties, such employee(s) may request that the Attorney General defend the action or proceeding at the expense of the state.

If the body presiding over the action determines that the employee was acting within the scope of his or her official duties and enters a judgment against the employee, the judgment will be satisfied by the state.

Wage Protection Wage protection will apply to regular employees hired prior to April 1, 2004, who have a pay rate greater than the Step 4 rate in Appendix A (Wage Grid), unless the employee successfully posts into a lower classification. Wage protection will apply to casual employees hired prior to April 1, 2004, who are paid at Step 4 of the classification in which the casual employee is working [see Appendix A (Wage Grid)]. Effective April 1, 2013, an employee with wage protection will receive 50% of all general wage increases until the new wage rate for their classification meets or exceeds their existing wage rate. Such increases shall be recognized as incumbent specific. Wage protection applies to: additional straight-time hours worked by a regular full-time and regular part-time employee as per Clause 14.2(e) (Hours of Work) in their classification; overtime hours in the employee's classification; statutory holidays/annual vacation pay/sick leave; and assignment of regular hours as per Clause 24.1(c) (Job Postings) in the employee's classification.

In such circumstances, they will be paid at Step 4 of the classification in which the employee is working. An employee will lose their wage protection (status) rates: if they post to a different classification prior to April 1, 2013; when they are demoted by the Employer as a result of disciplinary action; when regular employees achieve a casual position except where it is a temporary assignment directed by the Employer; when they bump under layoff provisions into a different job family or into a different grid level.
