JUST CAUSE AND RIGHT TO REPRESENTATION Sample Clauses

The "Just Cause and Right to Representation" clause establishes that disciplinary actions against employees must be based on legitimate, substantiated reasons and that employees are entitled to have a representative present during any related proceedings. In practice, this means that an employer cannot discipline or terminate an employee arbitrarily; instead, there must be clear evidence of misconduct or performance issues, and the employee can request union or legal representation during meetings that may lead to discipline. This clause protects employees from unfair treatment and ensures due process by requiring transparency and support during disciplinary actions.

JUST CAUSE AND RIGHT TO REPRESENTATION. Just Cause and Progressive Discipline: The Employer shall have the right to discipline and/or to discharge non-­­probationary employees for Just Cause only. Just Cause shall be defined to include the concept of Progressive Discipline. Progressive Discipline shall be corrective (i.e. verbal counseling, written warning(s), unpaid or paid suspension and termination/discharge) upon repeat occurrences of the same kind. The Employer will endeavor to use this form of discipline to correct the behavior rather than to punish the Employee. Communications between supervisors and employees about disciplinary matters shall be respectful and discipline shall be, in general, directed at correcting performance problems. Progressive discipline will not be applied when the nature of the offense is just cause for immediate suspension or discharge. Employees who are discharged will be issued a final paycheck by direct deposit or mail within five (5) days of the date of the termination of their employment. This final paycheck will include payment for all hours worked and not paid, as well as payment for any accrued personal leave.
