Any contract between the Board and a Professional Staff Member, School Secretary and Custodian, and Paraprofessional heretofore or hereafter executed, shall be subject to and consistent with, the terms and conditions of this agreement.


III AGENCY SHOP - REPRESENTATION FEE

A. Purpose of Fee

If an employee included under the provisions of Article 1, does not become a member of the Association during any membership year, which is covered in whole or in part by the Agreement, said employee would be required to pay a representation fee to the Association for that membership year. The purpose of this fee will be to offset the employee's per capita cost of services rendered by the Association as exclusive and sole representative.

B. Amount of Fee

1. Notification - Prior to the beginning of each membership year, the Association will notify the Board in writing of the amount of regular membership dues, fees and assessments charged by the Association to their own members for that membership year. The representation fee to be paid by non-members will be determined by the Association in accordance with the law.

2. Legal Maximum - In order to adequately offset the per capita cost of services rendered by the Association as exclusive and sole representative, the representation fee should be equal in amount to the regular membership dues, fees and assessments charged by the Association to their own members. The representation fee has been set at the maximum allowed by law.

3. Demand and Return System - The Association shall have a Demand and Return system in place which provides a procedure for non-members to challenge the amount of the fee.

C. Deduction and Transmission of Fee

1. Notification - At the beginning of each membership year covered in whole or in part by this Agreement, the Association in conjunction with the Board Secretary will establish a list of those employees who have not become members of the Association for the then current membership year. The Board will deduct from the salaries of such employees in accordance with Paragraph 2 below, the full amount of the representation fee and promptly will submit the amount so deducted to the Association.

2. Payroll Deduction Schedule - The schedule for the deduction of representation fees and the transmission of such fees to the Association will be the same as those used for the deduction and transmission of the membership dues to the Association.

3. Changes - The Association will notify the Board in writing of any changes in the list provided for in Paragraph 1 above and/or in the amount of representation fee.
4. New Employees - On or about the last day of each month beginning with the month this agreement becomes effective, the Board will submit to the Association, a list of all employees who began their employment in a bargaining unit position during the preceding thirty (30) day period. The list will include names, job titles, and dates of employment for all such employees.

5. The Association shall indemnify and hold the Board harmless against any and all claims, demands, suits and other forms of liability, including liability for reasonable counsel fees and other legal costs and expenses that may arise out of, or by reason of any action taken or not taken by the Board in conformance with this Article.

Both parties agree that during the period of negotiations the only information or publicity accorded the negotiations will consist of a joint statement, or in the event the parties are unable to agree upon the wording of the statement, a joint statement shall be made stating that, "no progress has been made". This does not exclude necessary confirmation and advisement within the parent groups.

E. It is further agreed that neither party will add any consultant to their negotiating team or bring to the meetings the consultant without giving the other part one (1) week prior written notice. This notice shall include name, position and reason for the consultant.

The parties shall then select an arbitrator from the list of two selected by the Board and the aggrieved Professional Staff Member, School Secretary or Custodian or Paraprofessional and/or Association. If the parties are unable to agree on the selection of the arbitrator within designated number of days after the list has been furnished, the arbitrator shall be selected by the Burlington County Superintendent of Schools.

A Paraprofessional must work at least ninety (90) days in the school year that the child care leave commences or terminates.

3. Personal Leave

All Professional Staff Members, School Secretaries and Custodians and Paraprofessionals are entitled to personal (non-cumulative) leave as stated below:

Up to a total of four (4) days (non-cumulative) personal leave (with pay) may be granted. The Board agrees to shift each of these unused personal days of an employee to an equal day of accumulated sick leave for each school year.

a. The request for personal leave must be given in writing, on the established form, at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance. In cases of emergency, the procedure is outlined in 7b below.

b. Personal leave with or without pay must be approved by the Superintendent and/or the Board of Education. Anyone taking unauthorized or unapproved leave will cause a breach of contract.

This form is obtained from the county, state, or federal government at the time of jury duty.

6. Board Granted Leaves

In general, the Board of Education is opposed to the granting of personal leave in addition to the number of days stipulated thus far, yet the Board realizes that extenuating circumstances may make it possible that requests for other personal leave may occur from time to time. If such requests are made, they will be considered on their individual merits. The prime consideration in granting or denying such leave will be the efficient operation of the school and the education program. Requests for such leave must be made to the Superintendent in writing at least two (2) weeks prior
to the requested leave. The Superintendent shall determine the feasibility of such leave and should he feel it necessary, consult with the School Board. He should keep in mind the importance of efficient school operation, classroom continuity, and employee morale when making his determination. This type of personal leave will be considered "approved personal leave - without pay" and 1/200 of the Professional Staff Member's annual salary, or 1/240 of the School Secretary’s or Custodian’s annual salary, or 1/200 of the Paraprofessional’s annual salary, will be deducted for each day granted.


7. Procedure Concerning Reporting of Absences

a. If any Employee will be absent from his/her assigned duties for any reason whatsoever, he/she must notify the Registry or his/her supervisor at least two (2) hours prior to his/her reporting time on the day of the absence. If an Employee is absent and fails to notify the Registry or his/her supervisor of such absence, as the case may be, the absence will be considered "leave without pay" and disciplinary action may be taken by the Board.

b. In cases of an emergency, the employee must notify the Registry, if applicable, or his/her supervisor as soon as possible, and the emergency will be documented.

8. Emergency Leave (Long Term)

The Board recognizes that occasions could arise when a Professional Staff Member, School Secretary, Custodian, or Paraprofessional or a member of his/her immediate family might be stricken with an illness, accident, or personal emergency that would necessitate an emergency leave by the employee. The Superintendent shall be notified in writing of such and, in turn, shall notify the Board of this emergency upon the employee’s request.

a. Remuneration, if granted by the Board, shall begin after accumulated sick days, personal leave days, and vacation days, if applicable, are exhausted. The Board shall have the right to require a doctor's certificate or other necessary affidavits. The Board of Education shall be the sole determiner if any and/or how much remuneration will be granted.

VIII INSURANCE

A. Hospitalization

The Board of Education agrees to pay the annual premium for full family coverage for full-time Professional Staff Members, School Secretaries, Custodians and Paraprofessionals at the prevailing full family (or husband/wife/partners in a statutory Civil Union Relationship) rate.
