What sort of NSFW goes on at work? Are you doing it now? Should you be aware of it? I have examples.

This episode is about out of scheudle rates of pay.

1.      4.07 – On-Call employee

2.      5.10 – Inability to Report

3.      5.17 – Overtime Distribution.

4.      Pay notes 2 and 4.

5.      Letter of Understanding 8.

I would open these up for bargain these in a heartbeat.

1.      Section 3 Grievance Procedure

2.      5.02 – Standard Hours of Work

3.      5.18/5.20 – Overtime paid or banked at 2x wage.

4.      6.17 Bereavement Leave

5.      7.05 Vacation Entitlement

What do you do when you have a collision. Listen and I will guide you.

Here is my report on the Convention, the election, and Chris Smalls. For Reference, Cori Longo ran without a rival, and Gil McGown beat Gregg Mady 60/40 split. I also speak about Chris Smalls and I included an echo track of his talk. Chris spoke to us about Amazon and the Labour Union he helped co-found. Whatever you think of him, it was important, and I think worth publicizing. I tried to increase the audio. Apologies but I do think it was worth playing. I sped up the entire episode (a tiny bit) if your wondering.

We are talking about vacation. 7.03 - 7.08.

Employees don't really take a look at this clause. I wanted to take a moment and dive into it.

If there are any errors please correct me. I am always going to defer to the union leadership for their interpretation.

Enjoy.

Hey lets talk about CUPE Alberta, the CLC, the coming AFL convention, and Tarrifs.

I was successful in the election. I was elected to the position of Exec-At-Large which means I am on the executive. Looking forward to the join the team. Greg Mady joined us at the start of the March General Meeting. Convention is this week. Maybe the education workers have a deal? Lots of news. I talk about the AFL and CUPE AB

This is an audio version of the youtube video on the same topic. The Attendance Suport Program is advertised as a great program that recently was able to reduce the amount of hours to get on the program from 50 a quarter to 36 hours. Why does this matter? It matters because innocent absenteeism is a fancy way of saying we can't get the stuff we want from the culpable system. This system will help us with other programs and hopefully get people to work. The problem is the system is always correcting. The better employees, the less time you can miss to be on the program. We are at a point in time where one week off is more time than is required to bring in a note from a doctor. In S/A land this is a non-culpable claim where the program starts without any suspicion there would be an issue.  Not even thinking of the grieveances.
