The Supervisory Differential is to be used in the following manner:
(1) determine the non-supervisory rate of pay according to zone and level;
(2) determine the Supervisory Differential by multiplying the applicable Supervisory Differential Percentage by the non-supervisory rate of pay;
(3) determine the supervisory rate of pay by adding the non-supervisory rate of pay with the Supervisory Differential.
For example, an employee on August 5, 2000 in Zone 2, at level 5 (HDO) and a Supervisory Coordinate C3, would receive a basic rate of pay of nineteen dollars and ninety cents ($19.90) as per Annex "A". The Supervisory Differential of two dollars and twenty-nine cents ($2.29) is arrived by multiplying the Supervisory Differential Percentage of eleven decimal five per cent (11.5%) (C3) by the basic rate of pay (non-supervisory). Therefore in this case the applicable supervisory rate of pay would be twenty-two dollars and nineteen cents ($22.19).
Notwithstanding the general provisions of this collective agreement, the following specific provisions shall apply to employees performing duties in the Lightkeeper Group.
Interpretation and Definitions
(a) "daily rate of pay" means an employee's weekly rate of pay divided by seven (7);
(b) "remuneration" means pay and allowances;
(c) "weekly rate of pay" means an employee's annual rate of pay divided by 52.176.
Accumulation of Vacation Leave

(b) four (4) weeks per vacation year commencing with the month in which the employee's eighth (8th) anniversary of service occurs;
**
(c) four (4) weeks and two decimal eight (2.8) days per vacation year commencing with the month in which the employee's

(d) four (4) weeks and four decimal two (4.2) days per vacation year commencing with the month in which the employee's seventeenth (17th) anniversary of service occurs;

5.07 The Employer will consult with the Lightkeeper on the need for the Employer to supply bed and bedding when the Department of Fisheries and Ocean's guests are to be accommodated in the Lightkeeper's dwelling and, if required, bed and bedding will be supplied by the Department.
The Employer will maintain the present practice within the Department of Fisheries and Oceans of providing employees where necessary when proceeding on leave, transportation to and from convenient public transportation and payment of reasonable expenses incurred by employees due to delays in proceeding to and returning from leave, when the delays are considered by the Employer to be beyond the control of the employees.
Concerning the administration of sick leave for employees assigned to rotational lightstations.
(a) A lightkeeper assigned to a rotational lightstation who is granted sick leave with pay during an on-duty period shall be deemed to be on duty for purposes of clause 4.03 of this Appendix and shall accordingly be credited with one rotational day off for each twenty-four (24) hour period of sick leave granted.
(b) A lightkeeper assigned to a rotational lightstation is not eligible for sick leave with pay between active duty periods on the rotational lightstation, except as otherwise provided in clause 35.07 of the Agreement.

Where a lightkeeper is required by management to perform the duties of an absent lightkeeper from the same lightstation, the lightkeeper shall earn one (1) day of compensatory leave for each day the lightkeeper is required to perform the duties of the absent lightkeeper. However, where two (2) lightkeepers are required to share the duties of an absent lightkeeper from the same lightstation, they shall each earn one-half (1/2) day of compensatory leave for each day they are required to perform said additional duties. Compensatory leave credits earned in accordance with this Clause may be liquidated as leave or, at the employee's option, by cash payment.
The Employer wishes to confirm its intention of continuing the present practice of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to the effect that all lightkeepers, save those on rotational stations, may absent themselves during off-duty periods, subject to the restrictions imposed by management for safety purposes.
