The payments will be made on the regular January 25, 2009 pay date, or as soon thereafter as the necessary payroll system adjustments can be prepared, but in no case later than the regular February 25, 2009 pay date. 7. The Employer shall not unreasonably deny requests by employees for extensions for submitting grades whenever the individual has had her work affected by the compression of the academic term(s).

In addition, any member may ask to have an additional two months grace period at the end of her graduate program to complete her degree if she can show that the strike affected her ability to complete all her degree requirements within the required time period. This request shall not be unreasonably denied by FGS. 9. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this protocol shall be referred to the grievance procedures provided in the collective agreement, beginning with step 4. - 18 SCHEDULE “B” - AMENDMENTS TO THE CURRENT DECEMBER 1, 1994 “GUIDELINES FOR THE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF THE JOINT OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE” - AS PER THE EMPLOYER’S PROPOSAL DOCUMENT OF NOVEMBER 4, 2008 REVISED AS NECESSARY CONSISTENT WITH THE FOLLOWING 1.
