5.01 Authorized representatives of the
Council shall have access to jobs where employees covered by
this Agreement are employed and it shall be the responsibility
of the Employer to provide the authorized Council
representative with such access subject to the approval of the
owner or contractor subcontracting to the Employer. The
Council recognizes that a large percentage of the workmen on
jobs where the Employer is called upon to work are employed by
an owning company or by other contractors and the Council
agrees that it will not use rights of access provided by this
Article in such a way as to jeopardize the Employer's position
on such jobs or to interfere with the progress of work on the
job.
5.02 Stewards shall be appointed by the Council from
among the employees of the Employer who shall be the
employees' spokesman and the Employer shall be notified of the
appointment. The steward shall be one of the last three (3) employees terminated on the project and shall be one of the
first three (3) employees rehired within their classification. The
steward on a project shall not be discriminated against and
shall receive his fair share of overtime work for which he is
qualified.
Other than qualified employees required to complete the
project, the steward shall be one of the last three (3)
employees on that project terminated. On projects where there
are twenty (20) or more employees, when the employer determines it
is necessary to reduce the work force in excess of twenty five
percent (25%) by layoff, transfer or termination, the steward shall
receive notice of the employees that will leave the job. Such
notice shall be at least (2) hours, whenever possible, prior
to the end of the final shift.
