WORKERS INTERNATIONAL UNION AFL-ClO-CLC, AND LOCAL 7-0482, HEREINAFTER
REFERRED TO AS THE UNION.
THIS AGREEMENT CONTINUES TO GUIDE OUR WORK SYSTEM AND GOVERN THE RELATIONSHIPS
AND DEALINGS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNLESS BOTH AGREE TO CHANGE IT.
SECTION ONE: OUR OPERATING PHILOSOPHY
All employees, the union and the company at American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah
facilities, have shared a proud history, made possible by our hard work,
determination and commitment to success of our products in the marketplace. It
is a heritage not only to be proud of, but to carry forward and build on.
However, our industry and its competitive environment are changing and this
demands that we alter the traditional relationships between people and their
work. This Philosophy Statement will guide us to create new and more productive
relationships as we face the challenges of today and tomorrow. It will help us
build on our strengths, and focus on setting the directions and taking the
required actions that will result in the continuous improvement necessary to
ensure our future. It will make American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah an effective and
rewarding place to work.
BUSINESS OBJECTIVE
Our business objective is to manufacture and distribute products which satisfy
the needs and expectations of our customers as they perceive them and to do this
better than any other company or American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah location. Our
customers include those who buy and use our products, the employees, the
business sectors we serve, and society. Ultimately, customer satisfaction
determines our success. Only satisfied customers provide job securIty.
VALUES
Our business objective can only be obtained by mutually establishing a work
place based on the following values:
Safety
Both parties to this agreement support the concept that safety is a joint
responsibility and each individual is ultimately responsible for his/her own
safety. Local 7-0482 and American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah are pledged to cooperate
fully to support the letter and spirit of the following: "We are equally
committed to safety in the workplace. Working safely should be our number one
priority at all times at American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah. In fact, nothing is
more important than safety. There is no production goal, there is no cost or
time saving measure and there is no competitive advantage that is ever worth an
injury of any kind. In other words, our goal is an accident-free workplace.
This goal is difficult, but can be accomplished by providing continuing employee
education on safe
1
operating practices and by ensuring that our work environment meets or exceeds
ail governmental requirements for health and safety."
People
People in our operations are trustworthy, deserving of respect, and committed to
the success of the business. They take pride in work well done and want to
perform to the best of their abilities. People are most effective when they have
influence on all issues affecting them. We recognize the need for our people to
have a rewarding lifestyle at work, at home, and In the community at large.
The most productive relationships are based on mutual respect openness, and
cooperation in which differences in status are minimized, people are recognized
for their ideas and their achievements, there are no limits placed on the
contributions they make, and teams of individuals work together effectively
with minimal direction.
Work Design
The most effective work designs are those which create and encourage teamwork by
making certain that individuals and teams have the necessary information,
competency, self-sufficiency, freedom and responsibility to make decisions and
take action to achieve common goals. People perform at their fullest potential
when they are a part of creating their vision and direction, when they know
their role, and when their work is challenging meaningful, flexible, and when
their tasks are focused on specific business objectives.
Conflict
In order to reach the best possible decisions, where all points of view are
considered, an atmosphere in which questioning and openly discussing differences
is encouraged and valued. Opposing views, handled in a problem-solving manner,
result in better, more balanced solutions by ensuring that a full spectrum of
ideas has been considered and developed.
Teams/individuals are expected to resolve conflict. Informal one-on-one
discussions are recommended as the first step. If unsuccessful, one of the
following procedures will be used: Co-worker Issue Resolution, Issue-Resolution
-- Section Six, or Local 7-0482 Trial and Appeals Process.
Learning and Skill Development
Learning and skill development are critical because we understand that change is
continual. People have both the right and the accountability to learn and
practice the skills needed to perform tasks safely and proficiently. The needed
learning opportunities to promote long-term development and continued growth for
our people and the company will be provided.
Communications
Successful communication is the cornerstone of a strong organization. The most
productive communication is continuous, timely, open, direct, and occurs where
actions are consistent with communications. People need accurate and prompt
feedback on
2
both operating and personal levels to be effective members of the organization.
People make good decisions when provided with the necessary training and
information to know and understand their jobs. To promote commitment, ownership,
and understanding of the business, vital information will be shared. Everyone's
contribution counts.
Continuous Improvement
The application of this operating philosophy is a process which will evolve as
changes occur and as learning and experience are gained. This requires a
climate in which problems are identified and resolved early, and setbacks are
viewed as valuable learning experiences. This process should promote creative
initiative, innovation, and the generation of new ideas essential for business
success.
The union and the company are committed to an ongoing dialogue to ensure
continuous improvement in everything we do.

SECTION TWO: PRINCIPLES OF TEAM ORGANIZATION
A. American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah is organized into business units to
encourage a focus on teamwork, innovation, and process improvement around a
complete, process, product, or business.
B. Business unit structure will not limit or restrict individual or group
contributions to the unit.
C. Business units are designed around team(s) which possess the following
characteristics:
1. Team has complete task: input transformation or production output so
that a product or service is produced.
2. The work is designed so that team members cooperate in order to
complete tasks, make a unique contribution to results, and work in
proximity such that team identity is maintained and observable.
3. Team members will have the necessary knowledge and skills to complete
a whole task.
4. Teams will be self-sufficient, with as few support tasks as possible
outside of operating teams.
5. Team members and hourly leaders will have responsibility and authority
to determine who does what by when for daily activities, and will
participate in decision making and goal setting for the teams and
business unit. Team members are expected to take direction from
designated leadership.
6. Everyone on a team must possess some minimum number of skills and
demonstrate the flexibility to utilize those skills on a regular
basis, focusing on the process/business unit rather than a job or
task.
7. The training process is continuous and includes a team-building
curriculum.
8. The compensation system is designed to encourage and reward the
development and utilization of multiple skills.
9. Teams will give and receive accurate and timely information about
results, operating standards, and new developments.
D. In order to effectively manage our business we need productive daily team
meetings. The format and content will vary to meet the specific needs of
individual business units and teams.
E. Operating schedules will be designed to meet business needs and employee
preferences to the extent possible.

F. Teams are expected to develop new, innovative approathes to problem solving
and decision making.
5
SECTION THREE: SENIORITY AND SERVICE
A. Seniority
1. Definition: Seniority refers to the rank order of bargaining unit
employees relative to other bargaining unit employees. Rank order is
determined by the time spent with the American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah,
Business Unit, and Team. Mill seniority is retroactive to the
employee's start date on the hourly payroll.
The following definition of team seniority will be applied across the
facility:
Team seniority will refer to the rank order of an entire business unit
team (all shifts) in a particular function, i.e., Facility Services
business unit has a Materials team, Stores team, Janitor team and
Warehouse.
Shift crews will be rank ordered according to team seniority.
Employees who change shift crews within a team will carry their team
seniority with them.
Employees who join a business unit from another business unit will be
assigned to the last position on the team seniority list. (Exception:
Employees who where in service as of November 22, 1996 (date of
purchase) are grandfathered with the years of service from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇ Corporation for vacation, seniority, and vesting rights for the
Lakeview Facility Union 401K Plan.)
2. Principle's: The corporation has the responsibility to determine who
and how many persons it will employ. New hires will have a ninety (90)
calendar day probationary period. Probationary, temporary, and summer
employees do not accrue seniority during their probationary,
temporary, and summer employment. Mill seniority prevails if business
unit and team seniority are equal.
3. An employee absent due to illness or off-duty accident who returns to
work within one (1) year shall be returned without loss of seniority.
In unusual cases by specific agreements of the parties, an employee's
seniority can be protected beyond the one (1) year without loss of
seniority. An employee absent due to an on-duty accident shall be
returned to work without loss of seniority, regardless of the length
of the absence. This time off shall be included in computing service
time and seniority as if it were time worked.
Employees temporarily transferred outside of the bargaining unit shall
have their seniority protected for a period established by agreement
between the union president and management.
6
B. Service
Service is defined as the actual time spent employed by American Tissue
▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah. Service is considered broken by discharge or resignation.
For purposes of computing vacation privileges and other benefits for which
continuous employment is a factor, service is not broken by absences due to
off with permission, authorized leave, certified leave of absence, illness,
military service, or layoff. However, the actual time spent on certified
leave of absence (as defined in Section 12) or a layoff in excess of 30
days will be excluded in computing length of service.
The period of absence during any layoff shall be excluded in computing
pension service in accordance with the American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah
Hourly Employees Retirement Plan.
7
SECTION FOUR: TRANSFER PROCEDURE
When permanent vacancies exist, the following procedure will be used:
A. The vacancy will first be filled from within the business unit based on
business unit seniority and providing the employee can successfully perform
the necessary minimum tasks.
B. If the vacancy is not filled from within the business unit, the vacancy
will be announced (via posting) to all American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah
hourly union employees. Informational meetings will be held to discuss
specifics of the position(s). A minimum of two informational meetings will
be held, the second meeting being held at least 48 hours prior to the end
of the posting period. The posting period will be for 10 calendar days.
Employees who wish to transfer must call the facility contact by the
designated date/time specified on the posting, and place their name on the
posting list. When an employee places their name on the posting list, they
have accepted the vacancy if they are one of the senior qualified
employees. Employees will not be able to remove their name from the list.
Employees can place their names on as many posting lists as they wish.
Notification will be sent to each business unit regarding who responded to
the posting and the employees who filled the vacancy. Positions not
included within the current transfer procedure will be handled through
jointly developed posting procedures (e.g. trades apprentice). Employees
must have six months of mill seniority before being eligible for signing on
the transfer procedure. Employees will be selected on the basis of their
mill seniority, past performance, the ability to perform the necessary
minimum tasks for that business unit.
C. Involuntarily transferred employees displaced from their business unit due
to reductions will be given priority placement on the business unit
transfer list from which they were displaced. Involuntarily transferred
employees will be displaced by business unit seniority. These employees
will select from available vacancies by mill seniority. Employees
involuntarily displaced from more than one business unit will have
priority placement choice. These displaced employees will accumulate
seniority in the new business unit on the effective date of the first
transferred employee. When permanent vacancies exist, these employees will
be given one opportunity to return; if they decline they will lose their
priority position.
D. Employees with long-term, substantiated medical limitations will be given
priority consideration for selection and placement.
E. Vacancies created by a mill layoff will be filled by this transfer
procedure.
F. Physical transfers should be made within six weeks unless unusual
circumstances arise; then a consensus action plan will be developed between
union and management representatives. Team/business unit seniority begins
on the effective date of the first transferred employee. An employee who is
unable to perform the duties within the new business unit because of
substantiated medical limitations may return to the former business unit
with no loss of seniority within the period of thirty days of the transfer
date.
8
G. The intent of the company is to staff new American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah
operations, where possible, with current bargaining unit employees. The
selection process for staffing new or expanded American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ -
Neenah operations will be discussed in advance.
Where no permanent vacancies exist, the following procedure will be used:
Excess employees will be loaned out to other business units by business
unit seniority. Loaned employees will select from available business units
by mill seniority. Loaned employees will maintain their pay rate and will
not accrue seniority in the new business unit.
9
SECTION FIVE: MILL LAYOFF AND RECALL
A. Mill Layoff and Recall - American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah
1. When a reduction in the workforce is required and no alternative to a
layoff is found, employees will leave American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah
in reverse order of their mill seniority. Employees with maintenance
skills needed to maintain the business may be retained outside of mill
seniority order. Alternatives to consider would include voluntary
layoff by mutual agreement.
2. Vacancies created by junior employees being laid off will be filled by
utilizing the transfer procedure applied to American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ -
Neenah employees.
3. Employees will have recall rights of two years (probationary, summer,
and temporary employees do not have recall rights).
4. American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah employees will be recalled in the order
of their mill seniority. (Exception: Employees with maintenance skills
needed to maintain the business may be recalled outside of mill
seniority order).
5. Employees will return to work with no rights to their former business
unit.
6. The employee will be notified of an opportunity for recall by
registered mail sent to the last address furnished to the mill. The
employee will be given seventy-two (72) hours after receipt of the
recall notice to notify the mill of the employee's intent to return to
work and two (2) weeks to actually report for work, unless the period
is extended by the business unit. Failure to comply with either of the
above will result in the loss of the employee's recall rights.
10
SECTION SIX: ISSUE RESOLUTION
A. The Company and the Union have established the following principles:
1. informal handling of grievances and other conflicts within the
framework of our agreements.
2. Expeditious investigation and disposition of such grievances or
conflicts.
In the event a conflict occurs, the parties concerned, will use the following
procedure (Exception: Disciplinary action involving discharge will be referred
directly to Step 3):
Step 1: FACT-FINDING REVIEW AND RESOLUTION
The involved parties will meet to discuss the issue, ascertain all facts, and
make a genuine attempt to resolve it. This may necessitate more than one meeting
using whatever resources are available. The individual(s) involved should be
present at these meetings. A facilitator should be utilized on an as-needed
basis to aid in mutually resolving the issue. The facilitator, by mutual
agreement, can be any hourly or salaried person possessing the necessary skills.
Resolutions that arrive out of conflicts involving this or other
union-management agreements will be covered with the appropriate
union-management representatives.
Step 2: INFORMAL RESOLUTION
If the conflict has not been resolved in Step 1, the business unit leader and
the union area vice-president will meet with the parties involved in Step 1 and
be apprised of all pertinent facts.
A mutually agreed-upon facilitator may be utilized in all discussions to aid in
resolution.
Normally, it is expected that Step 1 and Step 2, if needed, would be completed
within one week.
Any resolution resulting from the informal discussion portion of this procedure
need not be precedent setting.
Step 3: FORMAL RESOLUTION
Issues that were not resolved in Steps 1 or 2 may be submitted to the business
unit leader (in writing) within five (5) working days (excluding Saturdays,
Sundays, and holidays).
Procedure:
The mill/plant manager or representative, a representative of the
international union, and the local bargaining committee shall discuss the
issue. These parties may be assisted by such mill personnel as
appropriate. The agreed-upon facilitator, if utilized in Step 2 of the
informal discussion, may also be utilized in
11
the formal discussions. If the parties are unable to agree upon a
satisfactory settlement within ten (10) working days (Saturdays, Sundays,
and holidays excluded) from the date of referral, the grievance may be
submitted to the impartial arbitrator as outlined below.
When circumstances warrant, the time limits specified agreement between the
parties.

by mutual agreement within ten (10) days after request for arbitration has
been received. For such purpose, each party shall submit to the other
party a list containing the names of at least three (3) persons considered
qualified to serve in such a capacity.
C. If the parties are unable to reach mutual agreement in the selection of the
impartial arbitrator, the parties shall then jointly request the Federal
Mediation and Conciliation Service to submit a panel of five (5) qualified
arbitrators from which the impartial arbitrator may be selected. In the
first arbitration case which arises between the parties, the Union shall
first strike two (2) names and the Corporation shall then strike two(2)
names, and the one (1) name remaining shall be selected as the impartial
arbitrator. In subsequent arbitrating cases which arise, the right of
initially rejecting any two (2) of the five (5) names submitted shall
alternate between the parties.
D. It is understood that the function of the arbitrator shall be to interpret
and apply this Agreement and any supplements to the Agreement. The

arbitrate a dispute concerning a general wage adjustment, nor to enlarge
his own jurisdiction except upon mutual consent of the Corporation and the
Union.
E. The decisions of the arbitrator concerning any matter properly arising out
of this Agreement shall (if not contrary to state or federal law) be final
and conclusive upon the employees, the Union, and the Corporation.
F. Each party shall bear the expense of preparing and presenting its own case,
including witnesses and attending employees, before the arbitrator. The
fees and expenses of the arbitrator shall be borne equally by the parties
to this Agreement.

16
SECTION NINE: PAY AND BENEFITS
A. TIME/GRADE
1. Definition/Principles
In the American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah trade/grade pay system,
employees are compensated for the Job related skills they possess and
can demonstrate rather than the work assignment they are performing.
For pay purposes, groups of skills are organized into time frames.
Once an employee has satisfied the requirements of their training
plan, they will be paid accordingly. Time/grade pay systems have
evolved and are applied differently in each business unit to best meet
the needs of that business unit. The specific rates of each business
unit's pay system are described in Section Seventeen.
2. Hiring Rate
New employees, except summer hires and temporary employees, will
receive the following rates:
Starting Rate Effective Date
------------- --------------
$14.61 6/1/00
$15.05 6/1/01
$15.50 6/1/02
$15.97 6/1/03
After satisfactory performance of ninety (90) days, employees will
receive the following rates and will be eligible for the time/grade
pay.
Rates Effective Date
----- --------------
$15.66 6/1/00
$16.13 6/1/01
$16.61 6/1/02
$17.11 6/1/03
Temporary employees will be paid ninety percent (90%) of the starting
rate. Summer hires will be paid $10.50 throughout their period of
employment.
Maintenance Tradepersons' starting rate is:
17
Start 30-day 60-day 90-day Effective Date
----- ------ ------ ------ --------------
Tradepersons'
Base rate
$18.81 $19.50 $20.19 $21.56 6/1/00
$19.37 $20.09 $20.80 $22.21 6/1/01
$19.95 $20.69 $21.42 $22.88 6/1/02
$20.55 $21.31 $22.06 $23.57 6/1/03
3. Assessment and Qualification
The qualification process for acquiring time/grade will include three
steps: training, checklist and 6 month review. Employees will receive the
pay for time/grade after they have completed the 6 month review.
a. Training
Training periods will not be fixed, but will be based on business unit
requirements and on an individual's capacity to learn a particular
skill. Opportunity to train will be based on team seniority, ability
to successfully perform the skill, and the distribution of required
skills within the team.
b. 6 Month Review
Once an employee has demonstrated the ability to competently perform
the skills on the skill checklist safely, efficiently and effectively
in the 6 month training plan, the employee's pay will be adjusted
accordingly. The employee will be expected to develop and utilize the
skills on a regular basis.
If an employee is off work 30 consecutive days or less, that time will
be credited toward the master period or time/grade system. Time off
exceeding 30 consecutive days (excluding vacations) will not be
credited toward mastery or time/grade system.
c. Follow-up
Employees will be expected to perform the skills on a regular basis.
Follow-up assessments may be required of employees to demonstrate
ongoing skills. Employees who are unable to demonstrate such skills
will be reassessed for pay purposes.
4. Transfers
The following principles will apply to the treatment of time/grade pay in
transfers or other movement.
18
a. Voluntary Transfer from Team to Team
Employees returning to a former team within two years will transfer in
at the entry rate [$15.66 eff. 6/1/00, $16.13 eff. 6/1/01, $16.61 eff,
6/11/02, $17.11 eff. 6/1/03]. During the first 30 days, employees
previously held skills will be reassessed using the skills checklist.
Upon successful completion of the skills checklist, the employee will
receive pay retroactive to the date of transfer. Employees returning
to a former team after two years will not be given credit for any
skills they previously held.
b. Involuntary Transfer -- Team to Team
When an employee is involuntarily transferred from one team to
another, they will have their rate maintained for a period of one year
from the date of transfer if a rate reduction would ordinarily result.
During this period, employees will receive wage increases only when
the pay for the time/grade attained in the new team equals or exceeds
the retained rate. After one year the employee will be paid for
time/grade in the new team. (Exception: see employees returning to
former team.) The rate of involuntary displaced maintenance
tradespersons will be maintained for a period of one year from the
date of transfer. Time spent during this involuntary displacement will
be credited toward the maintenance continuity block.
5. Physical Limitations -- On Duty
If an employee has physical limitations for 30 consecutive days or less,
that time will be credited toward time/grade system. Time off exceeding 30
consecutive days (excluding vacation) will not be credited toward
time/grade system. Current pay rate will be maintained and employee may be
utilized to meet business needs.
6. Rate Adjustments
When significantly new skills are required to perform the work in a
business unit, or when the current skills are rendered obsolete, management
and union may discuss the anticipated change in the area work design and
the time/grade pay system.
a. New or Changed Time/Grade
If new or changed skills are required, the area vice-president and
business unit manager may negotiate a pay rate based on a comparison
of similar skills within the American Tissue ▇▇▇▇▇ - Neenah. Rates
negotiated will be retroactive to the date of the change to the
time/grade pay system, but not to exceed 180 days. The establishment
of new rates will not be a subject of arbitration.
19
b. Obsolete Skills
When current skills are judged to be obsolete, affected employees
shall receive the pay for those skills for a period of one year from
the date the skill became obsolete.
B. PREMIUM PAY
1. Monday through Saturday Overtime
Overtime will be paid at time and one-half for all time worked in
excess of the basic schedule of eight (8) hours per day or weekly
hours in excess of forty (40), whichever is greater, but not both.
2. Sunday and Holiday Premium
Double time will be paid for work performed during a twenty four (24)
hour period on Sundays and holidays. Employees scheduled to work on a
Sunday or holiday will receive a minimum of three (3) hours at the
premium rate, exclusive of work that carries over into their next
regular shift.
Weekday overtime does not apply to hours worked on Sundays or holidays
except when the basic daily schedule on a Sunday or holiday is worked
and the employee continues to work consecutive hours into the next
work day. When this occurs, the employee will be paid week day
overtime of time and one-half for the hours worked after the Sunday or
holiday premium period. This is not applicable unless the hours worked
are consecutive hours.
3. Night Differential
For day workers, a night work differential of forty-five cents (45)
per hour shall be paid for all hours worked between the hours of 6
p.m. and 6 a.m., except as described in the section on temporary
change in work schedules.
For employees on eight (8) hourshift schedules, a twenty-five (25)
cents per hour night differential will be paid for work performed on
the "B" shift and a forty-five (45) cents per hour differential will
be paid for work performed for the "C" shift.
4. Temporary Changes in Daily or Weekly Work Schedules (This applies only
to day workers and shift workers who are moved to days for more than a
week).
A temporary change from day to night work is one which does not
