JOINT SESSIONS Sample Clauses

The "Joint Sessions" clause establishes a formal process for parties to meet and discuss issues collaboratively, often as a preliminary step before pursuing more adversarial dispute resolution methods. Typically, this clause requires representatives from each party to convene within a specified timeframe to attempt to resolve disagreements or clarify misunderstandings, sometimes with the assistance of a neutral facilitator. Its core practical function is to encourage open communication and negotiation, potentially resolving conflicts early and efficiently, thereby reducing the need for litigation or arbitration.
JOINT SESSIONS. Upon the request of either the Union or the Association, the Joint Arbitration Board will meet at mutually agreeable times to survey industry conditions and trade problems.
JOINT SESSIONS. Upon the request of either the Union or the Association, the Joint Arbitration Board will meet at mutually agreeable times to survey industry conditions and trade problems. Upon request of either the Union or the Association, the Joint Arbitration Board shall meet as a fact-finding body to determine whether any Employer has become delinquent in the payment of wages, travel, or subsistence owed under this Agreement. At any such hearing, the party that requested the Joint Arbitration Board meeting shall present evidence of such a delinquency, and the accused Employer shall present its books and records to evidence the payment of wages, travel, and subsistence. The Joint Arbitration Board shall thereupon render a factual finding as to whether the Employer is delinquent in the payment of wages, travel, or subsistence owed under this Agreement. If the Joint Arbitration Board makes a factual finding that the Employer is so delinquent, the Union’s time period for filing a grievance to collect that delinquency shall commence when the factual finding of delinquency is rendered. (The term “delinquent,” for the purpose of this provision, shall refer to a wholesale or widespread delinquency, not a failure to pay on one or a small number of employees or a good faith dispute over the amount owed.)
JOINT SESSIONS. The success of the mediation process relies on a constructive and open minded approach. I will not under any circumstances accept aggressive, threatening, intimidating or violent behaviour towards me or towards the other participant.
