Rule #1 Sample Clauses

Rule 1 typically serves as the foundational provision in a set of rules or regulations, establishing the scope, authority, or basic definitions that govern the rest of the document. In practice, this clause may specify who the rules apply to, outline the general purpose of the rules, or set forth key terms that will be used throughout. By clearly defining the initial framework, Rule 1 ensures that all parties understand the context and applicability of the subsequent rules, thereby promoting clarity and reducing potential disputes over interpretation.
Rule #1. Disciplinary actions have active life spans. Active is defined as the total time 24 period the disciplinary action weighs against the employee. The active life spans are: 26 Counseling: 6 months 28 Step 1: 6 months 29 Step 2: 9 months 30 Step 3: 12 months 31 Step 4: 12 months 32 34 For instance, if Employee X receives a Step 1 disciplinary action on January 1, 2015, it 35 becomes inactive on June 30, 2015, 6 months from the date the action was imposed, 36 providing no further problems occur during that 6-month period. If further problems do 37 occur prior to June 30, 2015, the active life span shall be extended, as explained in Rule 38 #2. 40 Rule #2: Active life spans may be subject to linking. This is done to ensure that 41 documentation of prior disciplinary actions, often considered a basis for more 42 progressive disciplinary action, is not lost. 43 1 Continuing the example above, if Employee X were to receive a Step 2 disciplinary 2 action for any offense on March 1, 2015, the active life span of the Step 1 already given 3 is extended by the life span of the Step 2, or 9 months. The Step 1 and Step 2 actions 4 will remain “active” until November 30, 2015 unless an additional disciplinary action is 5 imposed prior to November 30, 2015, which would extend both actions even further. 7 The EDPP is structured to prevent repetitive disciplinary action, which is 8 counterproductive for both the employee and the Fire Department. 10 Repetitive disciplinary actions are controlled by Rule #3, which limits the number of 11 active actions in any step. This ensures that progressively more serious discipline is 12 imposed, when necessary.

Rule #1. If the Employer maintains one or more defined contribution plans (including any simplified employee pension plans) and has not maintained any defined benefit plan which during the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date had accrued benefits, the Top Heavy Ratio for this Plan alone or for the Required or Permissive Aggregation Group is a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the account balances of all Key Employees as of the Determination Date (including any part of any account balance distributed during the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date), and the denominator of which is the sum of the account balances (including any part of any account balance distributed during the 5-year period ending on the Determination Date) determined under Code §416 and the regulations thereunder. Both the numerator and the denominator of the Top Heavy Ratio will he increased to reflect any contribution that are not actually made as of the Determination Date but that are required to be taken into account under Code §416 and the regulations thereunder.

Rule #1. If the verb precedes the subject in VSO patterns, it only agrees with the subject in gender, and it is restricted the singular form. In VSO pattern, since the subject of the sentence normally comes after the verb, it can be singular (sentences 1, 4, 7), dual (sentences 2, 5, 8) or plural (sentences 3, 6, 9) as displayed in Table 1. The first three sentences (1,2 and 3) of Table 1 reveal that the verb for a masculine subject is not affected by the tense or the number of the sentence whether perfective or imperfective. Likewise, if the subject is feminine, only the feminine marker (-t ﺖـwith sukoon) is appended to the end of the verb as shown in sentences 4, 5, and 6. Such markers are not added to the verbs in the sentences when subjects are masculine. Similarly in imperative sentences (7, 8, & 9) in spite of the absence of the subjects, the number can be easily determined from the verb at the initial position and remains the same for both masculine and feminine. 1.
