Common use of Name Requests Clause in Contracts

Name Requests. (a) There shall be no restrictions/limitations on the Employer's right to hire via name request, and the Employer shall retain the right to refuse employment to an individual if the Employer does not believe that such individual is suitable for the available work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such right is exercised, the Employer shall provide the Union with a letter or email outlining the reason(s) an individual was not suitable, upon receiving a written request from the Union to do so. (b) The Union shall process an Employer's "name request" hiring of a Union member provided the Union is first notified of the Employer's intention to name request such member and provided the member is "booked in" as available for work with the Union. Any Employee who subsequently quits working for an Employer after having been name requested by such Employer shall not be eligible to be re-employed on the same project. In order to qualify for a name request, a Union member must attend the nearest Union dispatch office prior to commencing work in order to receive a clearance upon dispatch.
