UNDERSTANDING IN THE ADMINISTRATION
OF THE WORK RULES
1. All
existing and future work rules shall be subject to mutual
agreement before becoming effective. The
University

of new work
rules,
and such changes shall not become effective until they have been agreed upon
by the University and
the
Union. After agreement, such new rules or changes shall be posted prominently
on the bulletin boards

a period of ten (10) consecutive work days before becoming effective. Upon mutual
agreement a
shorter
period may be effected.
2, The
University agrees to furnish each employee with a copy
of all existing work rules thirty (30) days after
they
become effective. New employees shall be provided with a copy of the rules at
the time of
employment.
Employees shall comply with all existing rules, provided the rules are uniformly
applied and
uniformly
enforced. Any unresolved complaint as to a work rule or any complaint involving
discrimination
in
the application of such rules shall be resolved through the grievance procedure.
APPENDIX C ~ UNDERSTANDINGS
The following understandings incorporate Letters of
Understanding agreed to during past contract negotiations.
1. The
conditions contained in Article XVII, VACATIONS, Section
4, shall not apply to the four (4) elected
officers
of Local 590, namely: President, Vice President, Secretary-Treasurer, Recording
Secretary, and that the
employees
while so elected to one (1) of the aforementioned offices shall be allowed to
accumulate vacation
days
up to one hundred (100) days.
The
paragraph above shall not apply to officers elected for
the first time after August 1, 1988.
2. The
Library Administration shall notify the President of
the Union no later than December 1 of each year
which
libraries will be open or closed if the University’s closing code is announced
to the public.
3. It
is understood that the change from one year to two years
made to the units of service in Article VI, Sections
1
and 3, applies to employees hired after February 1, 1978. For employees hired
prior to February 1, 1978, the
unit
of service criteria to be followed will remain the same as set forth in the Collective
Bargaining Agreement
dated
November 1, 1974.
It
is also understood that the movement of employees with
more than twelve years of service, which is
described
in Article VI, Section 3, Paragraph 3, will take place after one (1) year for
employees hired prior to
February
1, 1978. (11/1/1979)
4. In
reference to the change to Article VII, PROMOTION, Section
3(a), involving the change from one year to
two
years for promotion, such change to be applicable only or employees hired after
February 1, 1978. For
employees
hired prior to February 1, 1978, the language of these sections as set forth
in the Collective
Bargaining
Agreement dated November 1, 1978, shall be applicable. (11/1/1979)
5. In
connection with our negotiations for a new collective
bargaining agreement, for the term of the agreement
presently
being negotiated, the University will continue its practice of making available
to University employees
represented
by AFSCME Local No. 590 new University benefits that the University decides to
make available
to
other University nonexempt employees, whether or not covered by collective bargaining
agreements. Please
accept
this letter as written confirmation of that practice as hereinafter explained.
As
you know this matter came to a head with grievances filed
concerning the supplemental pension
contribution
provided for in the Agreement dated June 1, 1978 between the University and Local
835 of the
Operating
Engineers, and the legal fund contribution provided for in the Agreement dated
August 1, 1977
between
the University and Teamsters Local 115. The University never intended Article
XX, Section 7,
Paragraph
2, as set forth in the Agreement of November 1, 1977, to apply to benefits such
as these which (1)
were
not initiated by the University in accordance with its procedures for creating
new University benefits; (2)
