Work of the Bargaining Unit/Employee Status Clause Samples

The "Work of the Bargaining Unit/Employee Status" clause defines which tasks and responsibilities are reserved exclusively for employees who are members of the bargaining unit, and clarifies the employment status of those performing such work. In practice, this clause typically restricts management or non-union personnel from performing duties that are normally assigned to bargaining unit members, and may also address the use of temporary, contract, or part-time workers in these roles. Its core function is to protect the job security and bargaining power of unionized employees by preventing the erosion of their work through reassignment or outsourcing.
Work of the Bargaining Unit/Employee Status. Volunteers (a) Persons who are not included within the bargaining unit’s jurisdiction shall not perform work which is currently or presently within the working jurisdiction of the bargaining unit, except in an emergency or for the purpose of instruction. i) Volunteers shall not be used to displace or replace CUPE employees in number, of their hours worked, or both. Volunteers shall be restricted to the provision of supplementary levels of service in areas or roles which do not encompass confidential or administrative information. ii) The Board, the Union and all employees agree to maintain positive relationships with volunteers. It is agreed that all problems or grievances related to the Board’s volunteers, whether individually or collectively, will be restricted to formal channels, namely the employee’s supervisor or the grievance procedure. (See also Letter of Understanding No. 8 – Practica and Work Experience Programs.)
