JURISDICTIONAL DISPUTE

If any Jurisdictional dispute arises between or among two or more Unions or groups of employees, there shall be no strike, slowdown, or other interference with the work because of such dispute and the provisions of this article shall be followed to settle the dispute.

The employees who have been performing the work under dispute as allocated by the Employer will continue to do so until the dispute is settled under the provisions of this article. A CLRA and Bricklayers Local No. 1 Collective Agreement 2022-2027 Page 10

If none of the parties to the dispute have been performing the work in question, then the Employer will decide, subject to Article 12.05 initially which employee or group of employees will perform the work under dispute until the dispute is settled under the provisions of this Article.

In allocating work, the Employer shall follow the established local practice decision of record of the Impartial Board for Settlement of Jurisdictional Disputes or International Union Jurisdictional Agreement, if any, and will consult with the Union involved.

If the matter cannot be adjusted between the Union and groups of employees involved, the matter shall be referred to the office of the International Unions concerned for possible adjustments. In the event that the matter is not then adjusted, the dispute may be referred for decision to the Impartial Board for the Settlement of Jurisdictional Disputes (Canada Plan) and such decision shall be final and binding.

If and when the Unions and groups of employees involved in the dispute have reached agreement settling it, or if and when it is settled, the Employer will accept such decision.

Nothing in this Article shall be construed to limit or restrict the Employer's right to fully pursue any and all remedies available under law in event of a Jurisdictional dispute.
