All discussions conducted pursuant to this Section shall be in accord with the meet and<br />

discuss provisions of the Public Employe Relations Act.<br />

Section 9. The provisions of Sections 1 through 7 shall not be applicable to employees whose<br />

hours of work, prior to the date of this Agreement, have customarily been either part-time,<br />

irregular, intermittent, employee controlled, or contractor or vendor controlled. Such employees<br />

will continue their hours of work in accordance with past practices, unless changed by the<br />

Employer under terms of Article 2 of this Agreement.<br />

ARTICLE 7<br />

REST PERIODS<br />

Section 1. An employee shall be permitted a fifteen-minute paid rest period during each<br />

one-half work shift provided the employee works a minimum of three hours in that one-half shift.<br />

Whenever practical, the employee shall be permitted to take the rest period at the middle of such<br />

one-half shift. Where rest periods are scheduled, the Employer shall be able to vary the scheduling<br />

of such period when, in its opinion, the demands of work require such variance. The regular<br />

scheduling of rest periods immediately before or after meal periods or at the beginning or end of<br />

the work day is permissible in certain operations where the Union and the Employer agree to such<br />

a practice or where the present practice is to schedule rest periods in that manner.<br />

Section 2. Employees who work, without interruption, beyond their regular shift for at least<br />

one hour shall receive a fifteen-minute paid rest period and shall thereafter receive a fifteen-minute<br />

paid rest period for each additional two hours of such work unless at the end of such two hour<br />

period the employee's work is completed or unless the employee takes a meal period during or at<br />

the end of the two hour period.<br />

If employees take a meal period at the expiration of their normal work day, then they shall<br />

thereafter be given a fifteen-minute rest period for each additional two hours of such work unless at<br />

the end of such two hour period their work is completed or unless the employee takes a meal<br />

period during or at the end of the two hour period.<br />

Section 3. Part-time employees shall be granted a fifteen-minute rest period during each 3-3/4<br />

hour work period.<br />

Section 4. The Employer will not require employees to continuously perform repetitive<br />

keyboard motions at a VDT for a period in excess of two consecutive hours. The Employer will<br />

attempt to provide 15 minutes of alternative work consistent with the employee's job classification.<br />

When alternative work is not available the Employer shall provide the 15 minute rest period<br />

referred to in Section 1 above or a meal period.<br />
