JOB CLASSIFICATIONS 32.01 Employees holding positions which fall within the Bargaining Unit shall be provided with a job description upon written or email request. 32.02 New job classifications properly included in this Collective Agreement may be established by the Employer during the term of the Collective Agreement. Basic hourly rates of pay for such new job classifications shall be negotiated with the Union. If negotiations fail to produce an agreement within sixty (60) calendar days of the date of written notice from the Employer to the Union regarding the new job classification, then the basic hourly rates of pay may be settled through arbitration in accordance with clause 14.04(d).
Job Classification Full-Time and Part-Time (a) When a new classification (which is covered by the terms of this Collective Agreement) is established by the Hospital, the Hospital shall determine the rate of pay for such new classification and notify the Local Union of the same within seven (7) days. If the local challenges the rate, it shall have the right to request a meeting with the Hospital to endeavor to negotiate a mutually satisfactory rate. Such request will be made within ten (10) days after the receipt of notice from the Hospital of such new occupational classification and rate. Any change mutually agreed to resulting from such meeting shall be retroactive to the date that notice of the new rate was given by the Hospital. If the parties are unable to agree, the dispute concerning the new rate may be submitted to arbitration as provided in the Agreement within fifteen (15) days of such meeting. The decision of the Board of Arbitration (or Arbitrator as the case may be) shall be based on the relationship established by comparison with the rates for other classifications in the bargaining unit having regard to the requirements of such classification. (b) When the Hospital makes a substantial change during the term of this agreement in the job content of an existing classification which in reality causes such classification to become a new classification, the Hospital agrees to meet with the Union, to permit the Union to make representation with respect to the appropriate rate of pay. (c) If the matter is not resolved following the meeting with the Union the matter may be referred to arbitration as provided in the Agreement within fifteen (15) days of such meeting. The decision of the Arbitrator shall be based on the relationship established by comparison with the rates for other classifications in the bargaining unit having regard to the requirements of such classifications. (d) The parties further agree that any change mutually agreed to or awarded as a result of arbitration shall be retroactive only to the date that the Union raised the issue with the Hospital.
Tax Classification The Series shall elect to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3 with effect for each taxable period of its existence. The Series and each Member shall file all tax returns and shall otherwise take all tax and financial reporting positions in a manner consistent with such treatment. No election will be filed with the Internal Revenue Service (or the tax authorities of any State) to have the Series taxable other than as an association taxable as a corporation for income tax purposes.

EMPLOYEE CLASSIFICATIONS Section 1. Definition and Use
New Classifications If a new classification is created within the bargaining unit, the Employer agrees to meet with the Union and negotiate a rate of pay for this new classification. If the parties cannot reach agreement, at the request of either party, the matter shall be submitted to the arbitration procedure in Article 26 of this Agreement.
Work in a Higher Classification Any employee who is assigned by his/her supervisor to a vacant position in a higher grade for a period of more than thirty (30) days shall receive the salary rate for the higher position from the first day of the appointment, provided such assignment has the prior approval in writing of the Appointing Authority or his/her designee. The approval of the Appointing Authority or his/her designee shall take effect as of the first day of the assignment. Any assignment to a vacant position in a higher grade must be in writing to be valid.
New Classification Should a new position or new classification be created within the Bargaining Unit during the term of this Agreement, the Employer and the Union will decide the rate of pay. Nothing herein prevents the Employer from filling such positions and having Nurses working in such positions during such negotiations. The salary when determined will be retroactive to the date on which the successful candidate commenced work in that classification.
WAGES AND CLASSIFICATIONS (a) Employees shall be paid a wage rate based upon their work performance. Upon initial appointment to a classification, an employee shall normally be paid the lowest wage rate for that classification. An employee may, however, be paid a wage rate above the lowest wage rate if circumstances justify it. Notwithstanding the following requirements relative to periods of employment at a salary step, the Chief of Police may recommend salary step increases at an earlier time or more than one step increase at a time. Step increases require City Manager, or his/her designee’s approval and may be granted when an employee achieves an overall performance evaluation rating of Meets Job Standards or higher as follows: After twenty-six (26) full pay periods of employment in each and every successive Compensation Step in the Compensation Ranges listed in Exhibit “A”. A full pay period as used herein is defined as one in which the employee works or is paid for time off for at least half of the regularly scheduled work hours. The effective date of a higher wage step shall be the first day of the pay period following qualification for the new step. (b) Should an employee wish to appeal a denial of a step increase, the employee may do so by submitting an appeal (1) to the Chief of Police, and if not resolved, (2) to an advisory committee comprised of two (2) representatives designated by the Association and one (1) representative designated by Police management. The committee will consider the appeal and make an advisory recommendation to the Personnel Director whose decision will be final. Such appeal must be made within thirty (30) days of the date of denial of the merit increase. 8.2 Wages shall be paid at bi-weekly intervals on Thursdays for a pay period ending no earlier than the preceding Saturday. If a pay day falls on a holiday, payment shall be made on the preceding workday. All new employees must make arrangements to have their pay deposited to a bank account via electronic transfer. 8.3 When an employee is temporarily assigned to work in a classification higher than the employee’s regular classification, the employee shall be paid at the rate established for the higher classification, with a minimum of four (4) hours and time computed to the next full hour, except when the work is performed outside of the regular work hours and the duration is less than four (4) hours. When an employee is temporarily assigned to work in a higher classification which has a wage range overlapping the wage range of the employee’s regular classification, the employee shall be paid at the wage rate of the classification to which the employee is temporarily assigned, which is next higher to the employee’s present wage rate, but not more than the top wage rate of the temporary classification. 8.4 When an employee is temporarily assigned to work in a classification lower than the employee’s regular classification, the employee’s rate of pay will not be reduced. 8.5 For purposes of wage rate progression in a temporary classification, the time worked by an employee in other than the employee’s regular classification shall also be accrued in such temporary classification. 8.6 Attached hereto and made a part hereof is Exhibit “A” titled “Schedule of Wage Rates.” (a) Attached hereto and made a part hereof is Exhibit “B” entitled “Job Definitions.” 8.7(b) Attached hereto and made a part hereof is Exhibit “C” entitled “Minimum Performance Standards for Community Service Officers, Property and Evidence Technicians, and Crime Scene Technician”;
Industry Classification Groups For purposes of this Agreement, the Borrower shall assign each Portfolio Investment to an Industry Classification Group. To the extent that any Portfolio Investment is not correlated with the risks of other Portfolio Investments in an Industry Classification Group, such Portfolio Investment may be assigned by the Borrower to an Industry Classification Group that is more closely correlated to such Portfolio Investment. In the absence of any correlation, the Borrower shall be permitted, upon prior notice to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, to create up to three additional industry classification groups for purposes of this Agreement.
