Do you have a question about your rights under the Collective Agreement? If you do, someone else probably does too. Submit your question here and we'll have Chief Steward Debra Warren write up an answer.

 

 

Question of the month:

What do I do if I have signed my SWF but during the semester discover that the SWF does not adequately reflect my workload?

 

Answer:

Discuss the SWF with your supervisor. If you present your arguments clearly, you may be able to convince your supervisor to make changes [11.02A 6 (a)].  The discussion should take place within 14 days of your becoming aware of the unacceptable circumstances. (The "circumstances" could be the SWF you have received or a change in your workload such that your SWF no longer reflects your actual workload.) Your supervisor must provide a response to your complaint within 7 days of your discussion.

 

If your supervisor does not settle the matter to your satisfaction and  issue a new SWF containing the appropriate changes, refer the unsatisfactory SWF to the Workload Monitoring Group, in writing,  within 7 days of your supervisor's response.
