3.6.1 CEP and Employers will cooperate in maintaining a
desirable and competent labour
force. Employers will give preference to qualified Union
members who are able to meet
the requirements of the job. Employers will submit the
names, social insurance numbers
and classifications of all requested Employees to CEP’s
office in Edmonton for approval by CEP. Employers will ensure that this is accomplished
prior to commencement of
employment. If CEP is not able to supply the number of
qualified Employees required by
an Employer, the Employer will be able to hire from outside
CEP’s membership,
provided however that such Employees must nevertheless
obtain a dispatch slip and
provide it to the Employer before commencing work. CEP
agrees to promptly process
dispatch slip requests, which will not be unreasonably
withheld.
3.6.2 Subject to Article 3.6.1, Employers will not
discriminate against any Employee because
of Union membership or lack of it, and will inform all new
Employees of the contractual
relationship between Employers and CEP. Before commencing
work, or as soon as
reasonably possible after commencing work, new Employees
will be referred by the
Employer to a steward or representative in order to
describe CEP’s purpose and
representation policies to such new Employees.
3.6.3 New Employees will serve a probationary period of 60
days worked and thereafter will
attain regular employment status subject to the
availability of work. Probationary
Employees may be terminated at the discretion of Employers.
The discharge or layoff of
a probationary Employee will not be the subject of a
grievance or arbitration.
3.6.4 Probationary Employees are covered by this Part,
excepting those provisions which
specifically exclude such Employees.
3.6.5 An Employee laid off and rehired by the same Employer
will not start a new probationary
period, but will be given credit for their previous
employment, provided the Employee is
rehired within 6 months of the layoff.
3.6.6 Employees laid off for a period longer than 6 months
and rehired by the same Employer
will serve a new probationary period.
3.6.7 An Employee who quits or is terminated for just cause
and is rehired will serve a new
probation period.
