The structure is based on :
1. Employees having achieved the necessary competencies before they are classified at that higher level. In most cases order to meet the requirements of a particular level a person would need to meet the requirements of all lower levels for that area of work.
2. The opportunity being available at Level 5 to progress (with appropriate training and qualifications) from the Production stream to the Engineering stream if there is a position available. Prior to such transfer the appropriate Union Delegate will be consulted.
3. The structure is based on transferring A PERSON to a level not A JOB as it has been defined in the past.
4. A person is able to progress from Level 5 to Level 6 on their own initiative by attaining the skills required. This means that a person does not have to wait for a position to become available. The only restriction is on the amount of training and opportunity to learn the skills over a period of time.
5. At Level 7 of the Engineering stream a person becomes eligible for the level when they have acquired the skills defined for that Level. However, a restriction on the number of positions available at this level will apply. The number of positions at this level will be reviewed annually.
6. Positions available at Level 7 will be advertised within the Company and externally. A formal appraisal of the employee’s performance will be completed no later than three months after commencement. Failure to reach the required standard may lead to termination of employment.

3. If the employee’s assessment is not accepted by the Plant Engineer and the Engineering Manager it will be referred to a panel consisting of the Plant Engineer, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and a fellow employee who has already been accepted as being classified at the level sought. If this panel cannot agree as to the classification the Engineering Manager or Operations Manager will be the employee’s Supervisor or Managerfinal arbitrator.
