Employees on short-short term disability leave, special leave, or any other paid leave of absence will be entitled to the basic rates of pay they received prior to substituting in a higher position. (c) Substitution pay is not payable when an employee has not been designated or assigned by the Employer to substitute, pursuant to (a)(1) or (2) above, or where an employee's current position normally requires periodic substitution in the higher position as defined in the functional job description. (d) Where this job description requires periodic substitution: (1) substitution pay shall not be payable for periods of substitution of 70 consecutive work hours or less in the higher position; (2) substitution in excess of the 70 consecutive work hours shall be payable from the commencement of the first shift of substitution; (3) substitution is not payable for any period of substitution during vacation relief in the higher position. (e) Payment for leave under Articles 21.1 Clauses 20.1 – Bereavement Leave and 21.2 20.2 – Special Leave will be made at an employee's basic pay, except if an employee has been working in a higher paid position than their regular position for a majority of their regularly scheduled hours in the four pay periods preceding their leave, in which case they shall receive the higher rate. (f) If an employee substitutes in a higher paying classification where the salary placement in the salary range is less than the salary they would have received if substituting in a classification between their current classification and the substituting classification, then the salary placement will be equivalent to the higher rate. This shall only apply to classifications in the same classification series or the classification series in which the employee is substituting. An employee shall not receive a salary greater than the maximum of the range of the classification in which the employee is substituting. (g) Grievances concerning (a) above, that are filed at arbitration, may be referred by either party to the expedited classification appeal process where the dispute is a disagreement on the classification level.
