In addition to the leave for Shop Stewards specified in the company recognition agreement, the following arrangements shall apply:—

 

• All shop stewards' leave may be pulled, and
• Shop Stewards who are Union office bearers shall be entitled to a further five days' leave per annum for attending to Union business.

 

Shop stewards shall be granted reasonable leave for purposes of participating in the following Glass Sector employer/employee structures.

 

• Sector Wage Negotiations for participating employers at NBCCI.

Any other leave which Shop Stewards may require for Union business falls within the ambit of the company recognition agreement and may change; therefore, it is negotiable at the plant level.
