Article 30
Pay

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

30.02

1. The rates of pay set forth in Appendix "A" shall become effective on the date specified therein.
2. Where the rates of pay set forth in Appendix "A" have an effective date prior to the date of signing of the collective agreement, the following shall apply:
   1. "retroactive period", for the purpose of sub-clause 30.02(b)(ii) to (v), means the period from the revision up to and including the day before the day 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 employees, former employees or in the case of death, the estates of former employees who were employees in the group 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 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 immediately below the rate of pay being received prior to the revision;
   5. no payment or no notification shall be made pursuant to paragraph 30.02(b) for one dollar ($1.00) or less.

30.03 An employee is entitled to be paid for services rendered at the rate of pay specified in Appendix "A" for the classification of the position to which he is appointed.

30.04 Acting Pay

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

30.05 When an employee is temporarily required by the Employer to perform the duties of a classification in the bargaining unit with a lower rate of pay than the employee is receiving, the employee shall continue to hold the employee's higher classification and be paid at the rate for that classification.

The provision of this clause shall not apply to an employee on "lay-off" as defined in clause 2.01.

30.06 An employee who was receiving a holding rate of pay on the effective date of this Agreement shall continue to receive that rate of pay until such time as there is a rate for the employee's classification level which is equal to or higher than the employee's holding rate. At that time, the employee will be paid the rate which is equal to or higher than the employee's holding rate.

30.07 Payments made as a result of clause 30.05 shall not change the holding rates of pay or the holding scale of rates to which an employee is entitled.

30.08 If, during the term of this Agreement, a new classification standard is established, and new rates of pay are applied, any disagreement between the parties arising out of the new rates of pay shall be subject to negotiation.
