Article 18
Grievance Procedure

18.01 In cases of alleged misinterpretation or misapplication arising from agreements concluded by the National Joint Council of the Public Service on items which may be included in a collective agreement and which the parties to this agreement have endorsed, the grievance procedure will be in accordance with section 15 of the NJC By-laws.

18.02 The parties to this Agreement emphasize the necessity of a satisfactory grievance procedure, the purpose of which is to provide an orderly and effective process for the consideration and prompt resolution of the grievances of officers within the bargaining unit.

Both parties recognize that an officer, accompanied by an Officers' Representative if the officer so wishes, has the right to discuss with his/her supervisor a complaint relating to the officer's working conditions and conditions of employment, including those governed by the provisions of this Agreement, without prejudice to the right of the officer to have subsequent recourse to the grievance procedure.

18.03 An officer has the right to representation by an authorized representative of the Guild when presenting a grievance at any stage in the grievance procedure.

18.04 In this procedure:

"grievance" means a complaint in writing presented by an officer on his/her own behalf or on behalf of the officer and one or more other officers other than a complaint arising from the classification process;
"authorized representative of the Guild" means a person designated by the Guild to represent an aggrieved officer in the processing of a grievance;
"Officers' Representative" means an officer appointed or elected by the Guild;
"Employer" means a person authorized to respond in writing to the grievances of officers;
"days" referred to in this procedure are calendar days excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

18.05 Subject to, and as provided in section 208 of the Public Service Labour Relations Act, an officer who feels that he/she has been treated unjustly or considers himself/herself aggrieved by any action or lack of action by the Employer in matters other than those arising from the classification process, is entitled to present a grievance in the manner prescribed in clause 18.08, except that:

where there is another administrative procedure provided by law to deal with the officer's specific complaint, such procedure must be followed,
and
where the grievance relates to the interpretation or application of this Collective Agreement or an arbitral award, the officer is not entitled to present the grievance unless the officer has the approval of and is represented by the Guild.

18.06 A grievance of an officer shall not be deemed to be invalid by reason only of the fact that it is not in accordance with the form supplied by the Employer.

18.07 An officer who wishes to present a grievance at any prescribed level in the grievance procedure shall transmit the grievance, either directly or through the Officers' Representative, to the officer's immediate supervisor or local officer-in-charge who shall forthwith:

forward the grievance to the representative of the Employer authorized to reply to the grievances of officers at the appropriate level;
and
provide the officer with a receipt stating the date on which the grievance was received by him/her.

18.08 Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a grievance shall be processed as follows:

level 1 - the person authorized to reply initially to the grievances of officers;
level 2 (and 3 in departments or agencies where such a level is established) - intermediate level(s);
final level - the Deputy Minister (or his equivalent) or his delegated representative.

18.09 An officer may present a grievance to the first level of the grievance procedure in the manner prescribed in clause 18.07 not later than the twenty-fifth (25^th) day after the date on which the officer was notified, orally or in writing, or on which the officer first became aware of the action or circumstance giving rise to the grievance. In the situation where officers are at sea, the twenty-five (25) day period will commence on return to the officer's home port.

18.10 The Employer shall normally reply to an officer's grievance at any level of the grievance procedure, except the final level, within ten (10) days after the grievance is presented, and within thirty (30) days where the grievance is presented at the final level.

18.11 Where the decision of the Employer is not satisfactory to the officer, an officer may present the grievance at each succeeding level in the grievance procedure beyond the first level not later than the tenth (10^th) day after the written decision of the Employer has been conveyed to the officer.

18.12 Where the Employer at any level fails to reply to the officer's grievance within the prescribed time limit, the officer may present the grievance to the next level not later than the fifteenth (15^th) day after the last day on which the Employer was required to reply to the grievance at the last preceding level of the grievance procedure.

18.13 The time limits prescribed above are maximum time limits in order to provide for circumstances which might cause delay. Both parties agree that grievances at all levels shall be dealt with as expeditiously as possible. However, the time limits stipulated in this procedure may be extended by mutual agreement between the Employer and officer and, where applicable, the Guild.

18.14 Where an officer has been represented by the Guild in the presentation of the officer's grievance, the Employer will forward to the appropriate authorized Guild representative a copy of the Employer's decision at each level in the grievance procedure at the same time that the Employer's decision is conveyed to the officer.

18.15 Where it appears that the nature of the grievance is such that a decision cannot be given below a particular level of authority, any or all the levels, except the final level, may be eliminated by agreement of the Employer and the officer and, where applicable, the Guild.

18.16 Where the Employer terminates an officer for cause or demotes an officer pursuant to paragraph 12(1)(c), (d) or (e) of the Financial Administration Act, the grievance procedure set forth in this Article shall apply, except that:

the grievance may be presented at the final level only;
the thirty (30) day time limit within which the Employer is to reply at the final level may be extended to a maximum of sixty (60) days by mutual agreement of the Employer and the officer and, where applicable, the Guild.

18.17 Where the provisions of clause 18.07 cannot be complied with and it is necessary to present a grievance by mail, the grievance shall be deemed to have been presented on the day on which it is postmarked and it shall be deemed to have been received by the Employer on the day it is delivered to the appropriate office of the department. Similarly, the Employer shall be deemed to have delivered a reply at any level on the date on which the letter containing the reply is postmarked, but the time limit within which the grievor may present his/her grievance at the next higher level shall be calculated from the date on which the Employer's reply was delivered to the address shown on the grievance form.

18.18 An officer may, by written notice to his/her immediate supervisor or local officer-in-charge, abandon a grievance at any time during the grievance process. No person who is employed in a managerial or confidential capacity shall seek to intimidate by threat of discharge or by any kind of threat to cause an officer to abandon a grievance or to refrain from presenting a grievance, as provided for in this Agreement.

18.19 Any officer who fails to present a grievance to the next higher level within the prescribed time limits shall be deemed to have abandoned the grievance unless, due to circumstances beyond the officer's control, the officer was unable to comply with the prescribed time limits.

18.20 The decision given by the Employer at the final level in the grievance procedure shall be final and binding upon the officer unless the grievance is a class of grievance that may be referred to adjudication.

18.21 Where an officer has presented a grievance up to and including the final level in the grievance procedure with respect to:

the interpretation or application in respect of the officer of a provision of this Collective Agreement or an arbitral award,
or
disciplinary action resulting in discharge, suspension or a financial penalty,
or
termination of employment or demotion pursuant to paragraph 12(1)(c), (d) or (e) of the Financial Administration Act,

and the officer's grievance has not been dealt with to the officer's satisfaction, the officer may refer the grievance to adjudication in accordance with the provisions of the Public Service Labour Relations Act and its Regulations.

18.22 Where a grievance that may be presented by an officer to adjudication is a grievance relating to the interpretation or application in respect of the officer of a provision of this Collective Agreement or an arbitral award, the officer is not entitled to refer the grievance to adjudication unless the Guild signifies in the prescribed manner:

its approval of the reference of the grievance to adjudication,
and
its willingness to represent the officer in the adjudication proceedings.

18.23 The Employer shall designate a representative at each level in the grievance procedure and shall inform the officers to whom the procedure applies of the name or title of the representative so designated, together with the name or title and address of the immediate supervisor or local officer-in-charge to whom a grievance is to be presented. An information copy of the above shall be provided to the Guild.

Article 19
Leave – General

19.01

Subject to clauses 19.02 and 19.03, in the event of termination of employment for reasons other than death or lay-off, unearned leave taken by an officer shall be recovered from any monies owed this officer by the Employer, calculated on the basis of the rate of pay to which the officer is entitled by virtue of the certificate of appointment in effect at the time of termination of the officer's employment.
The rate of pay used for calculation under paragraph 19.01(a) shall not include a rate of pay pertaining to a position held for a temporary period.

19.04 When an officer, who is in receipt of a special duty allowance or an extra duty allowance, is granted leave with pay, the officer is entitled during the officer's period of leave to receive the allowance if the special or extra duties in respect of which the officer is paid the allowance were assigned to the officer on a continuing basis or for a period of two (2) or more months prior to the period of leave.

However, the above exception shall not apply to an Officer who receives severance pay on lay-off and is reappointed to the Public Service within one year following the date of lay-off.

20.04 Vacation leave with pay shall be granted on an hourly basis with the hours debited for each day of vacation leave being the same as the hours the officer would normally have worked on that day.

1. Notwithstanding paragraph (a), on the date of signing of this Agreement or on the date an officer becomes subject to this Agreement, he or she has more than the limits provided in paragraph (a) above of unused vacation leave credits earned during previous years, this number of unused vacation leave credits shall become the officer's accumulated leave maximum.

1. in proceeding to his/her place of duty,
  and
2. in returning to the place from which he/she was recalled if he/she immediately resumes vacation upon completing the assignment for which he/she was recalled, after submitting such accounts as are normally required by the Employer.

20.13 Notwithstanding clause 20.12, an officer whose employment is terminated by reason of a declaration that he/she abandoned his/her position is not entitled to receive the payment referred to in clause 20.12 unless he requests it in writing within six (6) months following the date upon which his employment is terminated.

23.02 Bereavement Leave With Pay

For the purpose of this clause, immediate family is defined as father, mother, (or alternatively stepfather, stepmother or foster parent), brother, sister, spouse, (including common-law spouse resident with the officer), child of the officer (including child of common-law spouse), stepchild or ward of the officer, father-in-law, mother-in-law, grandchild and relative permanently residing in the officer's household or with whom the officer permanently resides.

During such period, the officer shall be granted leave with pay for those days which are not the regularly scheduled days of rest for that officer. In addition, the officer may be granted up to three (3) days' leave for the purpose of travel related to the death.
In special circumstances and at the request of the officer, bereavement leave may be extended beyond the day of the funeral but the total number of days granted must be consecutive and not greater in number than those provided for in paragraph 23.02(a), and must include the day of the funeral.
An officer is entitled to bereavement leave with pay, up to a maximum of one (1) day, if it is practical for the officer to leave and rejoin the vessel, in the event of the death of the officer's grandparent, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law and sister-in-law.
It is recognized by the parties that the circumstances which call for leave in respect of bereavement are based on individual circumstances. On request, the deputy head of a department may, after considering the particular circumstances involved, defer or grant bereavement leave with pay for a period greater than that provided for in subparagraph 23.02(a), (b) and (c).
If, during a period of paid leave an officer is bereaved in circumstances under which the officer would have been eligible for bereavement leave under subparagraph (a), (b) or (c) of this clause, the officer shall be granted bereavement leave and his/her paid leave credits shall be restored to the extent of any concurrent bereavement leave granted.

Where an officer participates in a personnel selection process for a position in the Public Service, as defined in the Public Service Labour Relations Act, the officer is entitled to leave with pay for the period during which the officer's presence is required for purposes of the selection process, and for such further period as the Employer considers reasonable for the officer to travel to and from the place where his/her presence is so required.

23.04 Court Leave With Pay

  or
2. sickness resulting from the nature of his/her employment;
  or
3. over-exposure to radioactivity or other hazardous conditions in the course of his/her employment,
if the officer agrees to remit to the Receiver General for Canada any amount received by him/her in compensation for loss of pay resulting from or in respect of such injury, sickness or exposure providing, however, that such amount does not stem from a personal disability policy for which the officer or the officer's agent has paid the premium.
If a designated holiday falls during a period of injury-on-duty leave, the officer will be paid for the holiday and injury-on-duty leave will not be granted for that day.

23.06 Examination Leave With Pay

Subject to operational requirements and at the discretion of the Employer, examination leave with pay may be granted to an officer for the purpose of writing an examination in order to qualify for a higher professional certificate of competency, provided the qualification can in the opinion of the Employer increase the officer's usefulness to the Employer.

1. where the officer has not yet proceeded on maternity leave without pay and her newborn child is hospitalized,
  or
2. where the officer has proceeded on maternity leave without pay and then returns to work for all or part of the period during which her newborn child is hospitalized,
the period of maternity leave without pay defined in paragraph (a) may be extended beyond the date falling eighteen (18) weeks after the date of termination of pregnancy by a period equal to that portion of the period of the child's hospitalization during which the officer was not on maternity leave, to a maximum of eighteen (18) weeks.
The extension described in paragraph (b) shall end not later than fifty-two (52) weeks after the termination date of pregnancy.

An officer shall inform the Employer in writing of her plans for taking leave with and without pay to cover her absence from work due to the pregnancy at least four (4) weeks in advance of the initial date of continuous leave of absence during which termination of pregnancy is expected to occur unless there is a valid reason why the notice cannot be given.
Leave granted under this clause shall be counted for the calculation of "continuous employment" for the purpose of calculating severance pay and "service" for the purpose of calculating vacation leave. Time spent on such leave shall be counted for pay increment purposes.

23.10 Maternity Allowance

An officer who has been granted maternity leave without pay shall be paid a maternity allowance in accordance with the terms of the Supplemental Unemployment Benefit (SUB) Plan described in paragraph (c) to (i), provided that she:
1. has completed six (6) months of continuous employment before the commencement of her maternity leave without pay,
2. provides the Employer with proof that she has applied for and is in receipt of maternity benefits under the Employment Insurance or the Québec Parental Insurance Plan in respect of insurable employment with the Employer,
  and

  2. following her return to work, as described in section (A), she will work for a period equal to the period she was in receipt of the maternity allowance;
  3. should she fail to return to work in accordance with section (A), or should she return to work but fail to work for the total period specified in section (B), for reasons other than death, lay-off, early termination due to lack of work or discontinuance of a function of a specified period of employment that would have been sufficient to meet the obligations specified in section (B), or having become disabled as defined in the Public Service Superannuation Act, she will be indebted to the Employer for an amount determined as follows:
    
    however, an officer whose specified period of employment expired and who is rehired in any portion of the Core Public Administration as specified in the Public Service Labour Relation Act within a period of ninety (90) days or less is not indebted for the amount if her new period of employment is sufficient to meet the obligations specified in section (B).
For the purpose of sections (a)(iii)(B), and (C), periods of leave with pay shall count as time worked. Periods of leave without pay during the officer's return to work will not be counted as time worked but shall interrupt the period referred to in section (a)(iii)(B), without activating the recovery provisions described in section (a)(iii)(C).

Maternity allowance payments made in accordance with the SUB Plan will consist of the following:
1. where an officer is subject to a waiting period of two (2) weeks before receiving Employment Insurance maternity benefits, ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay for each week of the waiting period, less any other monies earned during this period,
  and
2. for each week that the officer receives a maternity benefit under the Employment Insurance or the Québec Parental Insurance Plan, she is eligible to receive the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay and the maternity benefit, less any other monies earned during this period which may result in a decrease in her maternity benefit to which she would have been eligible if no extra monies had been earned during this period.

At the officer's request, the payment referred to in subparagraph 23.10(c)(i) will be estimated and advanced to the officer. Adjustments will be made once the officer provides proof of receipt of Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits.

The maternity allowance to which an officer is entitled is limited to that provided in paragraph (c) and an officer will not be reimbursed for any amount that she may be required to repay pursuant to the Employment Insurance Act or the Parental Insurance Act in Québec.
The weekly rate of pay referred to in paragraph (c) shall be:
**
1. for a full-time officer, the officer's weekly rate of pay on the day immediately preceding the commencement of maternity leave without pay,
  
  Effective April 1, 2010:
  The weekly rate of pay is equal to the hourly rate provided in appendix "A-4", "B-4" or "C-4" as applicable multiplied by:
  - Forty-two (42) for full-time officers working under Appendix "H" or "I";
  - Forty-six (46) for full-time officers working under Appendix "J";
  - Forty (40) for full-time officers working under Appendix "K".
2. for an officer who has been employed on a part-time or on a combined full-time and part-time basis during the six (6) month period preceding the commencement of maternity leave, the rate obtained by multiplying the weekly rate of pay in subparagraph (i) by the fraction obtained by dividing the officer's straight time earnings by the straight time earnings the officer would have earned working full-time during such period.
The weekly rate of pay referred to in paragraph (f) shall be the rate to which the officer is entitled for her substantive level to which she is appointed.
Notwithstanding paragraph (g), and subject to subparagraph (f)(ii), if on the day immediately preceding the commencement of maternity leave without pay an officer has been on an acting assignment for at least four (4) months, the weekly rate shall be the rate she was being paid on that day.
Where an officer becomes eligible for a pay increment or pay revision while in receipt of the maternity allowance, the allowance shall be adjusted accordingly.
Maternity allowance payments made under the SUB Plan will neither reduce nor increase an officer's deferred remuneration or severance pay.

23.11 Special Maternity Allowance for Totally Disabled Officers

An officer who:
1. fails to satisfy the eligibility requirement specified in subparagraph 23.10(a)(ii) solely because a concurrent entitlement to benefits under the Disability Insurance (DI) Plan, the Longterm Disability (LTD) Insurance portion of the Public Service Management Insurance Plan (PSMIP) or the Government Employees Compensation Act prevents her from receiving Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits,
  and
2. has satisfied all of the other eligibility criteria specified in paragraph 23.10(a), other than those specified in sections (A) and (B) of subparagraph 23.10(a)(iii),
shall be paid, in respect of each week of maternity allowance not received for the reason described in subparagraph (i), the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay and the gross amount of her weekly disability benefit under the DI Plan, the LTD Plan or via the Government Employees Compensation Act.

Effective April 1, 2010:
The weekly rate of pay is equal to the hourly rate provided in appendix "A-4", "B-4" or "C-4" as applicable multiplied by:

- Forty-six (46) for full-time officers working under Appendix "J";
- Forty (40) for full-time officers working under Appendix "K".

An officer shall be paid an allowance under this clause and under clause 23.10 for a combined period of no more than the number of weeks during which she would have been eligible for maternity benefits under the Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan had she not been disqualified from Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits for the reasons described in subparagraph (a)(i).

  or
2. where the officer has proceeded on parental leave without pay and then returns to work for all or part of the period during which his or her child is hospitalized,
the period of parental leave without pay specified in the original leave request may be extended by a period equal to that portion of the period of the child's hospitalization during which the officer was not on parental leave.

An officer who intends to request parental leave without pay shall notify the Employer at least four (4) weeks in advance of the commencement date of such leave.
The Employer may:
1. defer the commencement of parental leave without pay at the request of the officer;
2. grant the officer parental leave without pay with less than four (4) weeks' notice;
3. require an officer to submit a birth certificate or proof of adoption of the child.
Leave granted under this clause shall count for the calculation of "continuous employment" for the purpose of calculating severance pay and "service" for the purpose of calculating vacation leave. Time spent on such leave shall count for pay increment purposes.

2. Unused compensatory leave credits equivalent to the officer's accumulated compensatory leave maximum shall be carried over into the following fiscal year;
3. The officer's accumulated compensatory leave maximum as calculated pursuant to clause (c)(i) above shall be reduced irrevocably by the number of compensatory leave credits liquidated during the fiscal year.
When an officer commences compensatory leave, such leave shall be granted at the sub-group and level that is in effect on the day on which the compensatory leave is granted.

Article 31

compensation at the applicable overtime rate for any work performed,
or
compensation equivalent to three (3) hours' pay at the officer's applicable overtime rate of pay, to a maximum of eight (8) hours' pay in an eight (8) hour period.

provided that the period of overtime worked by the officer is not contiguous to the officer's designated hours of work.

In such instances, officers shall not be entitled to the minimum compensation under clause 31.01(b).

31.04 Compensation under this Article is not to be construed as different from or additional to overtime pay, but shall be construed as establishing minimum compensation to be paid.

31.05 This Article does not apply:

or
if the officer is on the Employer's premises at the time of notification of the requirement to work overtime,
or
when an officer is on security duty,
or
to officers holding a position identified in Appendix "G".

Article 32

or
compensation equivalent to three (3) hours' pay at the applicable overtime rate.

Article 33
Security Duty

33.01 Where an officer is required to remain on board a vessel in order to be responsible for the safety and security of that vessel to respond to situations which may endanger personnel, the vessel or equipment, the officer shall be paid three-tenths (3/10) of his/her straight-time hourly rate for each completed half (1/2) hour of security duty, except that an officer subject to Appendix "I" shall be paid one-sixth (1/6) of his/her straight-time hourly rate for each completed half (1/2) hour of security duty.

Article 34
Technological Change

34.01 The parties have agreed that in cases where, as a result of technological change, the services of an officer are no longer required beyond a specified date because of lack of work or the discontinuance of a function, the National Joint Council Work Force Adjustment Agreement concluded by the parties will apply. In all other cases, the following clauses will apply.

34.02 "Technological Change" means:

the introduction by the Employer of equipment or material of a substantially different nature than that previously utilized which will result in significant changes in the employment status or working conditions of officers;
or
a major change in the Employer's operation directly related to the introduction of that equipment or material which will result in significant changes in the employment status or working conditions of the officers.

34.03 Both parties recognize the overall advantages of technological change and will, therefore, encourage and promote technological change in the Employer's operations. Where technological change is to be implemented, the Employer will seek ways and means of minimizing adverse effects on officers which might result from such changes.

34.04 The Employer agrees to provide as much advance notice as is practicable but, except in cases of emergency, not less than one hundred and twenty (120) days written notice to the Guild of the introduction or implementation of technological change.

34.05 The written notice provided for in clause 34.04 will provide the following information:

the nature and degree of change;
the anticipated date or dates on which the Employer plans to effect change;
the location or locations involved.

34.06 As soon as reasonably practicable after notice is given under clause 34.04, the Employer shall consult with the Guild concerning the effects of the technological change referred to in clause 34.04 on each group of officers. Such consultation will include but not necessarily be limited to the following:

the approximate number, class and location of officers likely to be affected by the change;
the effect the change may be expected to have on working conditions or terms and conditions of employment on officers.

34.07 When, as a result of technological change, the Employer determines that an officer requires new skills or knowledge in order to perform the duties of his or her substantive position, the Employer will make every reasonable effort to provide the necessary training during the officer's working hours and at no cost to the officer.

Article 35
Pay Administration

35.01 Except as provided in this Article, the terms and conditions governing the application of pay to officers are not affected by this Agreement.

35.02 An officer is entitled to be paid for services rendered at the pay specified in Appendix "A", "B", "C" or "D" for the group, sub-group and level prescribed in the officer's certificate of appointment.

35.03

The rates of pay set forth in Appendix "A", "B", "C" or "D" shall become effective on the date specified.
Where the rates of pay set forth in Appendix "A", "B", "C" or "D" have an effective date prior to the date of signing of this agreement, the following shall apply
1. "retroactive period" for the purpose of clauses (ii) to (v) means the period from the effective date of the revision up to and including the day before the Collective Agreement is signed or when an arbitral award is rendered therefore;
2. a retroactive upward revision in rates of pay shall apply to officers, former officers or in the case of death, the estates of former officers who were officers in this bargaining unit during the retroactive period;
3. for initial appointments made during the retroactive period, the rate of pay selected in the revised rates of pay is the rate which is shown immediately below the rate of pay being received prior to the revision;
4. for promotions, demotions, deployments, transfers or acting situations effective during the retroactive period, the rate of pay shall be recalculated, in accordance with the Public Service Terms and Conditions of Employment Regulations, using the revised rates of pay. If the recalculated rate of pay is less than the rate of pay the employee was previously receiving, the revised rate of pay shall be the rate, which is nearest to, but not less than the rate of pay being received prior to the revision. However, where the recalculated rate is at a lower step in the range, the new rate shall be the rate of pay shown immediately below the rate of pay being received prior to the revision;
5. no payment or notification shall be made pursuant to clause 35.03(b) for one dollar ($1.00) or less;
6. in order for former officers or, in the case of death, for the former officers' representatives to receive payment in accordance with clause (b)(iii), the Employer shall notify, by registered mail, such individuals at their last known address that they have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the registered letter to request in writing such payment after which time any obligation upon the Employer to provide payment ceases.

35.04 When an officer is required by the Employer to substantially perform the duties of a higher classification level on an acting basis for a temporary period of at least one (1) complete working day, the officer shall be paid acting pay calculated from the date on which the officer commenced to act as if the officer had been appointed to that higher classification level for that period in which the officer acts.

35.05 If, during the term of this Agreement, a new classification standard is established and implemented by the Employer, the Employer shall before applying rates of pay to new levels resulting from the application of the standard, negotiate with the Guild the rates of pay and the rules affecting the pay of officers on their movement to the new levels.

35.06 The pay increment period for full-time officers shall be twelve (12) months and a pay increment shall be to the next rate in the scale of rates.

35.07 The annual pay increment date for officers appointed to a position in the bargaining unit upon promotion, demotion or from outside the Public Service, shall be the anniversary date of such appointment. The anniversary date for an officer who was appointed to a position in the bargaining unit prior to September 1, 1990 shall be the anniversary of the date on which he/she received his/her last pay increment.

35.08 The Employer will endeavour to make cash payments for overtime, acting pay and other premium payments within four (4) weeks following the end of the calendar month in which it is earned.

Article 36
Officer Performance Review and Officer File

36.01 When a formal review of an officer's performance is made, the officer concerned shall be given an opportunity to discuss and then sign the review form in question upon its completion to indicate that its contents have been read and understood.

36.02 At the request of the Guild and with the consent of the officer, the Employer at the appropriate level shall provide the Guild with the reasons and a description of the circumstances surrounding disciplinary action taken against the officer.

36.03 The Employer agrees not to introduce as evidence in a hearing relating to disciplinary action any document from the file of an officer, the existence of which the officer was not aware at the time of filing or within a reasonable period thereafter.

36.04 Upon written request of an officer, notice of disciplinary action which may have been placed on the personal file of the officer shall be destroyed after two (2) years have elapsed since the disciplinary action was taken provided that no further disciplinary action has been recorded during this period.

36.05 Upon written request of an officer, the personnel file of that officer shall be made available once per year for the officer's examination in the presence of an authorized representative of the Employer.

Article 37
Contracting Out

37.01 The Employer will continue past practice in giving all reasonable consideration to continued employment in the Public Service of officers who would otherwise become redundant because work is contracted out.

Article 38
Canadian Coast Guard Officer Cadets

38.01 Except as specifically provided in Appendix "E", the provisions of this Agreement do not apply to Canadian Coast Guard Officer Cadets.

Article 39
Agreement Re-Opener

This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent.

Article 40

work in bilges and spaces below the bottom floor plates for periods in excess of fifteen (15) minutes,
or
repair or maintain ships' sewage disposal tanks and associated piping, pumps and valves, including any part of a vessel's sewage system, which necessitates the officer to come into contact with effluent, or system components which are downstream from the fixture connection and contain effluent.

or
work on top of boilers while steam pressure is being maintained,
or

the officer shall receive, in addition to the appropriate rate of pay, an additional one (1) hours pay the officer's straight-time rate for each hour worked.

An officer is entitled to the above compensation on a prorata basis for each completed fifteen (15) minute period worked.

40.02 Supervision or inspection of duties described in clause 40.01(a), (b), (c) or (d) does not entitle an officer to the allowance specified in clause 40.01.

40.03 All of the foregoing duties must have the prior approval of the responsible manager before work is commenced.

Article 41

Appendix "H"

Lay-Day Operational
Crewing System

This is to confirm the understanding reached between the Employer and the Canadian Merchant Service Guild with respect to the operation of vessels, or other appropriate situations where the Employer deems that continuous operations are desirable, on the lay-day crewing system.

The Employer shall make every reasonable effort to allow an officer the option of electing not to serve on a lay-day system, if the officer does so in writing.

The number of vessels operating on the lay-day crewing system can be modified from time to time through consultation by the parties.

Notwithstanding the provisions of the Ships' Officers Collective Agreement, the following conditions shall apply:

Lay-Days

General

Subject to operational requirements, the Employer will operate the selected vessels on a lay-day system. Under this system, all days will be considered as working days and there will be no days of rest.
"Lay-day" means a day off work with pay to which an officer becomes entitled by working on the Lay-Day Crewing System for a number of days. A lay-day shall be considered a part of the work cycle and as such is not considered as a day of authorized leave with pay.
Officers will be informed of the anticipated work schedule for the operational year. Officers will be notified of changes to the anticipated work schedule at the earliest possible time. Normally, officers will receive two (2) months notice of changes to the anticipated work schedule, with a minimum of fourteen (14) days notice.
The workday will consist on-duty-cycle of twelve (12) hours of work per day. For each day worked or for each on-duty-cycle day on which an officer is on authorized leave with pay other than compensatory leave and vacation leave with pay, an officer shall earn one (1) lay-day in addition to the officer's Lay-Day rate of pay.

An officer will be compensated at the applicable rate of pay as described in Appendix "A3", "B3" or "C3" of the Ships' Officers Collective Agreement. Effective April 1, 2010, an officer will be compensated at the applicable rate of pay as described in Appendix "A-4", "B-4" or "C-4" of the Ships' Officers Collective Agreement. In order to maintain the officer's rate of pay, the officer must either:
1. work,
2. be on lay-days,
  or
3. be on authorized leave with pay.
In the event that an officer does not work and is neither on lay-days nor on authorized leave with pay, his regular pay shall be deducted by an amount equal to his lay day rate of pay for each day's absence, unless the officer has received an advance of lay-day credits.
It is recognized that lay-days are intended to be taken as time off work with pay. Normally, lay-days shall be paid in cash in cases of termination of employment or permanent appointment to a position which is not on a vessel operating on the lay-day system, or is not within the same department or region. However, at the request of the officer and with the concurrence of the Employer, lay-days may be converted into compensatory leave.
For the purpose of cashing in earned lay-days, a lay-day will equal the lay-day rate of pay multiplied by one decimal five (1.5).

Advancement of Lay-Day Credits

At the Employer's discretion, lay-day credits may be advanced to an officer, subject to the deduction of such advanced credits from any lay-day credits subsequently earned.

In the event of termination of employment for reasons other than death or lay-off, the Employer shall recover the advance from any monies owed the officer.

Leave - Interpretation

Sick leave With Pay and Injury on Duty Leave can only be granted during the on-duty cycle.

Administration

For greater clarity, a lay-day rate of pay is equivalent to six (6) hours of pay.
Lay-day credits shall be accumulated at the rate of pay for the sub-group and level at which they are earned.
Lay-day credits may be prorated on the basis of the hours in the normal work day.
Lay-days which have been displaced by vacation leave may be paid out at the direction of the Employer. The officer will have the option of converting these days to either cash or compensatory leave. Lay-days displaced by vacation leave will be paid in cash at the officer's lay-day rate of pay multiplied by two decimal zero (2.0).
An officer who has reported for work without being notified not to report, and remains ashore waiting to board his or her vessel for crew change, shall be considered to be at work and is entitled to meals and quarters under Article 25.
Where the Employer alters the scheduled "off cycle" the Employer shall reimburse the officer's non-refundable portion of travel contracts or reservations made by the officer with respect to that period, subject to the presentation of such documentation as the Employer may require. The officer will make every reasonable attempt to mitigate any loss incurred and will provide proof of such action to the Employer.
At the request of the officer and with the concurrence of the Employer, compensation earned in accordance with Article 21, Designated Holidays, may be converted into compensatory leave.

(Arbitral Award August 18, 2004)

An officer shall not accumulate more than sixty-five (65) days in their lay-day bank. In circumstances where an officer is required to work after accumulating sixty-five (65) days the officer shall be paid, in addition to his/her regular pay and lay-day factor, the cash equivalent of one decimal five (1.5) lay days for each day worked beyond the sixty-five (65) day cap.
The premium payment may be waived after agreement between the Employer and the Guild.

For the purposes of overtime or any other hourly rated benefit the hourly rate shall be the appropriate rate found in Appendix "A-2". Effective April 1, 2010, for the purposes of overtime or any other hourly rated benefit the hourly rate shall be the appropriate rate found in Appendix "A-4".

Article 2 - Interpretation and Definitions

"Day" in relation to an officer means the twenty-four (24) hour period during which that officer is normally required to perform the duties of his/her position and commences at the designated crew change time.

**(Arbitral Award June 27, 2008)

For the purpose of granting vacation leave for officers subject to the lay-day system, in accordance with this Appendix, all vacation leave credits for officers entering or in the lay-day system will be multiplied by a factor of two decimal one (2.1). For employees leaving the system, vacation leave credits will be adjusted by reversing the factor. (Effective March 31, 2010, the paragraph is deleted)

**(Arbitral Award June 27, 2008)

Six (6) hours of vacation leave are to be deducted for each day of vacation leave and a lay-day credit shall not be earned.

Article 21 - Designated Holidays

For each designated holiday for which an officer does not work, the officer shall receive his regular pay for that day plus eight (8) hours pay at the straight-time rate, and a lay-day will be deducted from the officer's lay-day bank.

1. an officer shall receive, in addition to his regular pay and lay-day factor, the cash equivalent to two decimal fifty (2.50) lay-days;
2. an officer shall be entitled to be compensated in accordance with the overtime compensation clause above, for work performed on a designated holiday in excess of twelve (12) hours.
For each designated holiday for which an officer is scheduled to work, but is granted the designated paid holiday off, the officer will receive his/her regular lay-day pay and his/her lay-day credit for that day. A lay-day credit will not be deducted from the officer's lay-day bank and the officer will not be entitled to any additional pay.

Article 22 - Sick Leave With Pay

An officer shall earn sick leave credits under Article 22 for each calendar month for which he receives at least two (2) weeks' pay.

Notwithstanding clauses 25.01, 25.02 and 25.03, but subject to clause 25.06, when an officer is required by the Employer to attend legal proceedings, training or other such work related activities, the Employer reserves the right, where in its opinion circumstances warrant, to reimburse actual and reasonable costs incurred for meals and/or lodging, where such costs exceed the amounts in 25.01, 25.02 or 25.03.

Article 29 - Severance Pay

For the purpose of this Article, "weekly rate of pay" means the officers lay-day rate of pay as set out in Appendices "A-3B", "B-3B" and "C-3B" multiplied by seven (7), applying to the officer's classification, as shown in the instrument of appointment.

Dear Mr. Boucher:

RE: Granting of Days Off

This letter will confirm the understanding reached between the Employer and the Canadian Merchant Service Guild in negotiations with respect to the granting of days off.

For the duration of the Ships' Officers Group Collective Agreement which will expire on March 31, 2011 the Employer recognizes the desirability of granting days off at such times and in such locations so as to provide an officer the opportunity to enjoy his/her days off preferably at home, or if not at home, in a community which affords the officer a recreational outlet.

The Employer shall designate a home port for each officer, and subject to operational requirements undertakes the following:

The Employer will grant an officer compensatory leave in the officer's home port unless otherwise mutually agreed.
The Employer will grant days of rest to an officer either
1. in the officer's home port,
  or
2. when, in the opinion of the Employer, an officer is within reasonable travelling distance from his/her place of residence or the officer's home port,
  or
3. in a location which, in the opinion of the Employer, provides adequate recreational facilities,
  or
4. in any other location which might be agreeable to both the officer and the Employer.
When 2 above does not apply, an officer shall work on his/her day of rest at the applicable overtime compensation or, if, in the opinion of the Employer, sufficient work is not available and the officer does not work, the officer shall be granted one-half (1/2) day of compensation. If the officer works less than a day, he/she shall receive a minimum of four (4) hours' pay at the applicable premium rate.

The Employer further undertakes, on request in writing from the Guild, to consult with the Guild with respect to locations which the Employer considers provide adequate recreational facilities as envisaged in 2(c) above.

Dear Mr. Boucher:

RE: Variable Hours Of Work

This will confirm the understanding reached by the parties in negotiations regarding the implementation of a variable hours work schedule for officers working under Appendix "K" and "L".

It is agreed that the implementation of any such variation in the hours of work shall not result in any additional expenditure or cost by reasons only of such variation, nor shall it be deemed to prohibit the right of the Employer to schedule any hours of work permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

Any special arrangement may be at the request of either party and must be mutually agreed between the Employer and the Guild and shall apply to all employees at the work unit.

1. General Terms

Officers, with the approval of the Employer, may complete their weekly hours of employment in a period other than five (5) full days provided that over a period to be determined by the Employer, officers work an average of forty (40) hours per week. In every such period, officers shall be granted days of rest on days not scheduled as normal work days for them.

The starting and finishing times, meal breaks and rest periods shall be determined according to operational requirements as determined by the Employer.

Scheduled hours shall be consecutive, exclusive of meal periods, and all hours in excess of the scheduled hours shall be overtime hours.

A designated paid holiday shall account for the normal daily hours specified in Article 21.

When an officer works on a Designated Paid holiday, the officer shall be compensated, in addition to the normal daily hours' pay, time and one-half (1 1/2) up to his or her regular scheduled hours worked and double (2) time for all hours worked in excess of his or her regular scheduled hours.

3. Leave

Where an officer is granted bereavement leave in accordance with the provisions of Article 23.02 a day shall equal the scheduled hours of work.

Dear Mr. Boucher:

RE: Training

This will confirm the understanding reached by the parties in negotiations regarding the application of training for officers working under Appendices "H", "I" and "J".

Definition

Training refers to an activity where the Employer has determined that such training is necessary or will assist the officer in carrying out his/her assigned duties.

The following activities shall be deemed to be training:

a course given by the Employer,
a course offered by a recognized academic institution,
a seminar, convention or study session in a specialized field directly related to the officer's work,

Time required to maintain or re-qualify or re-certify training previously taken under (a), (b) or (c).

Training is divided into short and long term. Short term training is any training scheduled to be twenty-eight (28) days or less in duration and long term training is that which is scheduled to be duration longer than twenty-eight (28) days.

Short Term Training

For short term training the officer shall remain in their normal "work cycle". In those periods where the officer is undertaking training during the normally scheduled off duty portion of the work cycle the officer will be compensated for the scheduled training period at their straight time rate of pay.

Long Term Training

For long term training the officers shall be temporarily removed from their work system and shall work, and be compensated, in accordance with Appendix "K".

Memorandum of Understanding
Between
The Canadian Merchant Service Guild
and
the Treasury Board
on
Special Lay Day Bank - 65 Day Cap

In accordance with Article 39, the parties agree to amend the Collective Agreement as follows:

The Employer and the Canadian Merchant Service Guild agree to the continuation of the Memorandum of Understanding on "Special Lay Day Banks".

It is understood that in recognition of operational and administrative difficulties in scheduling personnel, there is a need to establish a "Special Lay Day Bank" which will be administered, effective the date of signing of this memorandum, in accordance with the following procedures:

When an Officer is scheduled or required to work where he/she exceeds the 65 day cap on lay-days, the additional lay-days so earned (i.e., lay-day factor) shall be accumulated in the "Special Leave Bank".
Credits shall be accumulated in days and Officers shall be advised in writing, on each occasion that days are added to this "Special Lay Day Bank", of the number of days and the lay-day rate at which they have been earned.
Credits in this "Special Lay Day Bank" shall be held in reserve to be liquidated as time off work with pay at the request of the Officer and at the discretion of the Employer or at the request of the Employer subject to the Employer making every reasonable effort, subject to operational requirements, to grant the lay days at such time as the Officer may request.
The accumulation of such lay day credits shall not exceed sixty-five (65) days. Should an officer reach the maximum of sixty-five (65) days, he or she must proceed on leave.
It is recognized that lay day credits accumulated in this bank are intended to be taken as time off work with pay. Normally, the credits in this bank shall only be paid in cash in cases of termination of employment or permanent appointment to a position which is not on a vessel operating on the lay-day system, or is not within the same department or region.

For the purposes of cashing out such converted lay day credits, it is agreed that this will be at the lay-day rate of pay multiplied by 1.5.

Memorandum of Understanding
Between

on
Compensatory Leave

In accordance with Article 39, the parties agree to amend the Collective Agreement as follows:

Notwithstanding clause 30.14, for the duration of this Collective Agreement, the Guild and the Employer recognize the benefit to all parties of Officers accumulating compensatory leave credits for use in special circumstance noted in (1) and (2) below when Coast Guard Vessels may be non-operational.

Accordingly Officers are encouraged to accumulate and retain compensatory leave credits sufficient to cover:

periods during which the vessel will be non-operational by reason of refit, repair, seasonal lay-up;
and
periods during which the employee is not required to work in accordance with a rotational or relief crew system.

To facilitate such accumulation of compensatory leave, the Employer undertakes to provide officers with as much notice as possible of these periods.

Consequently, the parties agree, on a without prejudice basis that, at the request of an Officer, and subject to the approval of the Employer, compensatory leave credits may be accumulated in excess of four (400) hundred hours for these special circumstances. In the event that such accumulated compensatory leave in excess of four (400) hundred hours is not used for the purpose requested, the credits shall be liquidated in cash.

**Memorandum of Understanding
on
Temporary Lack of Work Situation

As a result of the removal of the vacation leave factors, as set out in paragraph 20 of the arbitral award (PSLRB File 585-02-10) and in recognition of the Guild's concern regarding temporary lack of work situations for indeterminate full time Officers and notwithstanding Article 30.13, the following steps shall be undertaken in the event of a temporary lack of work situation:

When a temporary lack of work situation has been identified, the Officer shall be informed in writing with a copy provided to the Regional Guild Office with as much notice as possible of these situations, and shall include the anticipated dates of the temporary lack of work. Consultation with the Guild at the Regional level shall take place.
The Officer's leave credits shall be managed in accordance with the provisions of the collective agreement and the MOU regarding Compensatory Leave.
The Officer shall exhaust all his/her lay-day, annual leave and compensatory credits.
When all the lay-day, annual leave and compensatory credits have been exhausted, the Employer shall endeavour to provide an opportunity for training or alternate assignment(s) at the Officer's substantive pay level during this period. Where alternate assignments within the Officer's home region cannot be found, alternate assignments in other regions will be considered. Nothing in this MOU will limit the Employer's requirements with respect to competencies, qualifications, knowledge and abilities for potential assignments.
A review of the current staffing situation (casual, term, acting positions) will be completed to determine if opportunities are available. Alternate assignments in reference to this MOU, will be made to positions occupied by casual and term employees prior to affecting indeterminate Officers performing duties in accordance with Article 35.04.
Consultation with the Guild at the National level shall be completed prior to an Officer being placed in off-duty status.

In no case will an Officer be placed in an off-duty status unless the above steps have been completed.

Should an Officer refuse an offer of an alternate assignment or a training opportunity in accordance with this MOU, the provisions of this MOU will no longer apply for this temporary lack of work situation.

An officer who has been granted maternity leave without pay shall be paid a maternity allowance in accordance with the terms of the Supplemental Unemployment Benefit (SUB) Plan described in paragraph (c) to (i), provided that she:
1. has completed six (6) months of continuous employment before the commencement of her maternity leave without pay,
2. provides the Employer with proof that she has applied for and is in receipt of maternity benefits under the Employment Insurance or the Québec Parental Insurance Plan in respect of insurable employment with the Employer,
  and
3. has signed an agreement with the Employer stating that:
  1. she will return to work on the expiry date of her maternity leave without pay unless the return to work date is modified by the approval of another form of leave;
  2. following her return to work, as described in section (A), she will work for a period equal to the period she was in receipt of the maternity allowance;
  3. should she fail to return to work in accordance with section (A), or should she return to work but fail to work for the total period specified in section (B), for reasons other than death, lay-off, early termination due to lack of work or discontinuance of a function of a specified period of employment that would have been sufficient to meet the obligations specified in section (B), or having become disabled as defined in the Public Service Superannuation Act, she will be indebted to the Employer for an amount determined as follows:
    
    however, an officer whose specified period of employment expired and who is rehired in any portion of the Core Public Administration as specified in the Public Service Labour Relation Act within a period of ninety (90) days or less is not indebted for the amount if her new period of employment is sufficient to meet the obligations specified in section (B).
For the purpose of sections (a)(iii)(B), and (C), periods of leave with pay shall count as time worked. Periods of leave without pay during the officer's return to work will not be counted as time worked but shall interrupt the period referred to in section (a)(iii)(B), without activating the recovery provisions described in section (a)(iii)(C).

Maternity allowance payments made in accordance with the SUB Plan will consist of the following:
1. where an officer is subject to a waiting period of two (2) weeks before receiving Employment Insurance maternity benefits, ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay for each week of the waiting period, less any other monies earned during this period,
  and
2. for each week that the officer receives a maternity benefit under the Employment Insurance or the Québec Parental Insurance Plan, she is eligible to receive the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay and the maternity benefit, less any other monies earned during this period which may result in a decrease in her maternity benefit to which she would have been eligible if no extra monies had been earned during this period.

At the officer's request, the payment referred to in subparagraph 23.10(c)(i) will be estimated and advanced to the officer. Adjustments will be made once the officer provides proof of receipt of Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits.

The maternity allowance to which an officer is entitled is limited to that provided in paragraph (c) and an officer will not be reimbursed for any amount that she may be required to repay pursuant to the Employment Insurance Act or the Parental Insurance Act in Québec.
The weekly rate of pay referred to in paragraph (c) shall be:
**
1. for a full-time officer, the officer's weekly rate of pay on the day immediately preceding the commencement of maternity leave without pay,
  
  Effective April 1, 2010:
  The weekly rate of pay is equal to the hourly rate provided in appendix "A-4", "B-4" or "C-4" as applicable multiplied by:
  - Forty-two (42) for full-time officers working under Appendix "H" or "I";
  - Forty-six (46) for full-time officers working under Appendix "J";
  - Forty (40) for full-time officers working under Appendix "K".
2. for an officer who has been employed on a part-time or on a combined full-time and part-time basis during the six (6) month period preceding the commencement of maternity leave, the rate obtained by multiplying the weekly rate of pay in subparagraph (i) by the fraction obtained by dividing the officer's straight time earnings by the straight time earnings the officer would have earned working full-time during such period.

23.11 Special Maternity Allowance for Totally Disabled Officers

An officer who:
1. fails to satisfy the eligibility requirement specified in subparagraph 23.10(a)(ii) solely because a concurrent entitlement to benefits under the Disability Insurance (DI) Plan, the Longterm Disability (LTD) Insurance portion of the Public Service Management Insurance Plan (PSMIP) or the Government Employees Compensation Act prevents her from receiving Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits,
  and
2. has satisfied all of the other eligibility criteria specified in paragraph 23.10(a), other than those specified in sections (A) and (B) of subparagraph 23.10(a)(iii),
shall be paid, in respect of each week of maternity allowance not received for the reason described in subparagraph (i), the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay and the gross amount of her weekly disability benefit under the DI Plan, the LTD Plan or via the Government Employees Compensation Act.

Effective April 1, 2010:
The weekly rate of pay is equal to the hourly rate provided in appendix "A-4", "B-4" or "C-4" as applicable multiplied by:
- Forty-two (42) for full-time officers working under Appendix "H" or "I";
- Forty-six (46) for full-time officers working under Appendix "J";
- Forty (40) for full-time officers working under Appendix "K".

An officer shall be paid an allowance under this clause and under clause 23.10 for a combined period of no more than the number of weeks during which she would have been eligible for maternity benefits under the Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan had she not been disqualified from Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits for the reasons described in subparagraph (a)(i).

23.12 Parental Leave Without Pay

Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) above, at the request of an officer and at the discretion of the Employer, the leave referred to in the paragraphs (a) and (b) above may be taken in two periods.

Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b):

  or
2. where the officer has proceeded on parental leave without pay and then returns to work for all or part of the period during which his or her child is hospitalized,
the period of parental leave without pay specified in the original leave request may be extended by a period equal to that portion of the period of the child's hospitalization during which the officer was not on parental leave. However, the extension shall end not later than one hundred and four (104) weeks after the day on which the child comes into the officer's care.

An officer who intends to request parental leave without pay shall notify the Employer at least four (4) weeks in advance of the commencement date of such leave.

23.13 Parental Allowance

An officer who has been granted parental leave without pay, shall be paid a parental allowance in accordance with the terms of the Supplemental Unemployment Benefit (SUB) Plan described in paragraphs (c) to (i), providing he or she:

2. provides the Employer with proof that he or she has applied for and is in receipt of parental, paternity or adoption benefits under the Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan in respect of insurable employment with the Employer,
  and
3. has signed an agreement with the Employer stating that:
  1. the officer will return to work on the expiry date of his/her parental leave without pay, unless the return to work date is modified by the approval of another form of leave;
  2. Following his or her return to work, as described in section (A), the officer will work for a period equal to the period the officer was in receipt of the parental allowance, in addition to the period of time referred to in section 23.10(a)(iii)(B), if applicable;
  3. should he or she fail to return to work in accordance with section (A) or should he or she return to work but fail to work the total period specified in section (B), for reasons other than death, lay-off, early termination due to lack of work or discontinuance of a function of a specified period of employment that would have been sufficient to meet the obligations specified in section (B), or having become disabled as defined in the Public Service Superannuation Act, he or she will be indebted to the Employer for an amount determined as follows:
    
    however, an officer whose specified period of employment expired and who is rehired in any portion of the Core Public Administration as specified in the Public Service Labour Relations Act within a period of ninety (90) days or less is not indebted for the amount if his or her new period of employment is sufficient to meet the obligations specified in section (B).
For the purpose of sections (a)(iii)(B), and (C), periods of leave with pay shall count as time worked. Periods of leave without pay during the officer's return to work will not be counted as time worked but shall interrupt the period referred to in section (a)(iii)(B), without activating the recovery provisions described in section (a)(iii)(C).

Parental Allowance payments made in accordance with the SUB Plan will consist of the following:
1. where an officer is subject to a waiting period of two (2) weeks before receiving Employment Insurance parental benefits, ninety-three per cent (93%) of his/her weekly rate of pay for each week of the waiting period, less any other monies earned during this period;
2. for each week the officer receives parental, adoption or paternity benefits under the Employment Insurance or the Québec Parental Insurance Plan, he or she is eligible to receive the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of his or her weekly rate of pay and the parental, adoption or paternity benefit, less any other monies earned during this period which may result in a decrease in his/her parental, adoption or paternity benefit to which he or she would have been eligible if no extra monies had been earned during this period;
3. where an officer has received the full eighteen (18) weeks of maternity benefit and the full thirty-two (32) weeks of parental benefit under the Québec Parental Insurance Plan and thereafter remains on parental leave without pay, she is eligible to receive a further parental allowance for a period of two (2) weeks, ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay for each week, less any other monies earned during this period.

At the officer's request, the payment referred to in subparagraph 23.13(c)(i) will be estimated and advanced to the officer. Adjustments will be made once the officer provides proof of receipt of Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan parental benefits.

The parental allowance to which an officer is entitled is limited to that provided in paragraph (c) and an officer will not be reimbursed for any amount that he or she is required to repay pursuant to the Employment Insurance Act or Parental Insurance Act in Quebec.

The weekly rate of pay referred to in paragraph (c) shall be:
1. for a full-time officer, the officer's weekly rate of pay on the day immediately preceding the commencement of maternity or parental leave without pay;
  
  Effective April 1, 2010:

The weekly rate of pay referred to in paragraph (f) shall be the rate to which the officer is entitled for the substantive level to which she or he is appointed.
Notwithstanding paragraph (g), and subject to subparagraph (f)(ii), if on the day immediately preceding the commencement of parental leave without pay an officer is performing an acting assignment for at least four (4) months, the weekly rate shall be the rate the officer was being paid on that day.
Where an officer becomes eligible for a pay increment or pay revision while in receipt of parental allowance, the allowance shall be adjusted accordingly.
Parental allowance payments made under the SUB Plan will neither reduce nor increase an officer's deferred remuneration or severance pay.

The maximum combined maternity and parental allowances payable under this collective agreement shall not exceed fifty-two (52) weeks for each combined maternity and parental leave without pay.

23.14 Special Parental Allowance for Totally Disabled Officers
