APPENDIX E
WORKING CONDITIONS FOR PLASTERER INSPECTOR
As a result of the 1974 settlement, the Parties have established
craft-determined rates for Plasterer Inspectors, with the specific under-
standing that such agreement is restricted to establishing rates of pay for
such classifications. �
It is, consequently, agreed that the Rnployer in applying Article
III - EMPLOYER RIGHTS of the MAINTENANCE LABOR AGREEMENT, shall have the
� right to operate the Department in the same manner as heretofore, with
management rights unaffected, and that the establishment of separate rates
for these classifications as well as for Inspector classifications in other
Bargaining Units, may not result in disputes over assignaents or over rates
of pay for work performed, nor will any jurisdictional claims or restrictions
be asserted by the UNION because members of various Inspector classifications
are assigned to work which is also performed by other Inspector classifications.
