Article 4 - Jurisdiction of Work

4.01 With a view to balancing the number of members of each of the affiliated Unions in his employ the Employer shall, after hiring a new employee who is not a member of one of the affiliated Unions, require the new employee to apply for membership in the affiliated Union as directed by the QCCC.


4.02 Due to the nature of work involved in nondestructive testing, there shall be no jurisdictional boundaries or disputes with respect to work covered by this Agreement between the employees covered by this Agreement or between any of the affiliated Unions and any of the local Unions affected by this Agreement.


4.03 The Council agrees that employees who have worked for the employer for the preceding one (1) month or four (4) months out of the preceding twelve (12), may work in any region in Canada without financial or other restriction and without requirement that the members of any local Unions, in such Region, be hired instead of or in addition to, regular employees of the employer.


4.04 (a) The Council agrees that the Employer may perform any work within the scope of this Agreement according to the terms of this Agreement which may be subcontracted to the Employer by any other employer having a collective agreement with an affiliated Union or Local Union, and that compliance by the Employer with the terms of this Agreement for such work shall be deemed by the affiliated Unions and Local Unions to be in compliance with the subcontracting restrictions, if any, contained in the aforementioned collective agreement with the other employer.

(b) The Employer will subcontract work covered by this Agreement only to Employers who are signatory to the Agreement or covered by virtue of Article 2.01. Subcontracting includes any arrangement by which another party performs work under the CANADIAN NUCLEAR SAFETY COMMISSION Radioisotope Licence of the Employer.

4.06 The Local Union shall provide the regular employees with a suitable means of identity which such employees may present to shop stewards when the employees are working outside their home region. When it is the intention of the Employer to dispatch the employees to a locality outside their home local region (or into a different province within the prairie region) the Employer shall notify the designated Council office.


4.07 The Council and the affiliated Unions covenant and agree that the Local Unions affiliated with each of the affiliated Unions (herein referred to as "Local Unions") who may from time to time be affected by this Agreement are aware of the terms hereof and agree to abide by this Agreement.
