LETTER OF AGREEMENT

INVENTORY ADJUSTMENT:LAYOFF / BUMPING / RECALL / JOB POSTINGS

When a need arises to adjust inventory, the following procedure will be used.The four-shift operation shall be reduced to a three-shift operation, plant wide.This procedure describes how 21:02(b) is to be amended when this need arises,during the life of this agreement. This is intended to establish an agreed uponprocedure to be utilised, in an effort to develop a system of handling layoffs asdescribed above. The clear objective is to assure seniority prevails in a layoffwhile allowing for a smooth transition.

BUMPING RIGHTS:

(1) In the event of a layoff of more than five (5) consecutive days, the primaryobjective will be to continue employment seniority, as the determining factor inregards to implementation and that for the duration of the layoff those employeeswith the lowest plant seniority shall be laid off.

(2) "Previously fulfilled satisfactorily" is to mean that the employee:(a) has trained on the job through a job posting and was not denied by the

Company, or(b) has worked overtime and has shown competence, or(c) has been previously classified on the job, in other words has hadexperience or training on the job.

(3) "Qualified to perform the work" is to mean classifiable with a minimum of training(maximum of one (1) week).

(4) Employees who cannot bump under 21.02(b) will be provided with training on thejob of their choice amongst those jobs which are vacant because of the layoff of ajunior employee.

(5) In the implementation of items 2) & 3), the employee, subject to layoff, has theright to choose which job he/she bumps into.

(6) In the event that it is necessary to provide training to a senior employee so thathe can bump a junior employee, the junior employee will only be laid off once thetraining is completed. This may result in the junior employee working beyond thelayoff date of more senior employees. Under no circumstances will the retainedjunior employee do production work unrelated to training. In no event will a junioremployee remain in the plant longer than three (3) weeks following the layoffdate.

RECALL PROCEDURE:

(7) On a general recall, employees, who were bumped or laid off, will return to theirclassified jobs.

Page 56: COLLECTIVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN MORBERN INC. AND … Consuma… · INTO AT CORNWALL, ONTARIO ON THIS 22nd DAY OF APRIL BY AND BETWEEN: MORBERN INC. a body politic and corporate, duly

56

(8) On a general recall, "unclassified" employees, who were laid off, will be assignedto jobs by the Company on an as needed basis.

(9) An employee, who was bumped or laid off, may lose his/her right to a recall to his"classified" job if he applied and was classified on a job posting. See section onjob postings for further clarification.

(10) An employee, who was bumped or laid off, may be assigned by the Company, ona temporary basis (maximum of three (3) months) to his/her former "classified"job despite having accepted a new job through a job posting and giving up theirright of recall. This will be done when a replacement on the employee's formerjob is not available.

(11) All employees, who were bumped or laid off, have a right to a recall on their"classified" jobs for a period of two (2) years from the date of their layoff or bump.After two years the jobs in question need to be posted.

(12) In the event a limited recall becomes necessary, employees will be recalled inorder of seniority.

JOB POSTING PROCEDURE:

(13) When possible, job postings for positions on a 4th shift will be continued despite alayoff. An employee will only be classified on a posted job once the 4th shift isrecalled. After successfully completing a trial period for a posted job, which is notyet vacant, the employee will return to his or her previous job and rate, pendingthe recall of the 4th shift. Despite having more seniority, an employee with a"4th" shift classification cannot bump a junior classified employee on the postedjob.

(14) Employees, who were bumped or laid off, lose their right to a recall to theirprevious job when they accept a 4th shift classification, provided they have hadan opportunity to do the job on their own prior to being asked to accept the job.In this situation, the employee's former "classified" job on the 4th shift would bethe next job posted.

(15) Employees classified on a posted job (currently vacant), who were bumped orlaid off, must decide at the time of classification if they wish to retain their right torecall to their former "classified" job. If yes, then on a recall they will return totheir "classified" job and the vacant job will be re-posted. If no, then on a recallthey will remain on their new job and the 4th shift vacancy will be posted. Article20.04, regarding demotions, will not apply to "bumped" employees applying forjobs during the layoff.

(16) Employees, who were bumped or laid off, will hold a recall right to their previous"classified" job in the event that the person who bumped them vacates the job foranother classified job as part of the job posting process.

(17) Jobs on the 4th shift, which become vacant as the result of a job posting will, ingeneral, be posted once the 4th shift is recalled but may be posted sooner at the

Page 57: COLLECTIVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN MORBERN INC. AND … Consuma… · INTO AT CORNWALL, ONTARIO ON THIS 22nd DAY OF APRIL BY AND BETWEEN: MORBERN INC. a body politic and corporate, duly

57

Company's discretion.

(18) All laid off employees that are continuing to accumulate seniority willautomatically have their names entered for all job postings.

OTHER ISSUES:

(19) Laid off employees who are continuing to accumulate seniority will:a) be paid for the first stat holiday during a layoff; they will not be paid for anysubsequent stats during the same layoff.b) be paid for the standard Christmas period stat holidays provided they areon the Company's active payroll on or anytime after November 1st of that year.

(20) Employees eligible for an RRSP payment that are continuing to accumulateseniority, who have been laid off during the year will be paid 25% of the RRSPtotal for each quarter in which the employee worked.

(21) This agreement will in no way impact on Article 21.01.

(22) Employees will be provided at least two (2) weeks notice of a shift schedulechange.

If this apprentice is also unsuccessful in advancing to the Class C Millwright level within 6months of commencing the Apprenticeship Progression, the Company reserves the right toremove the apprentice from the Apprenticeship Progression and to hire a Certified Millwright. Inthis circumstance, the Company is not required to post an apprenticeship vacancy.
