ernmental Affairs.
Article XIV – Addition of the positions of Assistant
Business Manager, Director of Servicing, Director of
Organizing and Director of Governmental Affairs as
Delegates to District Council #5.
Article XVII – Addition of the following Section:
In recognition of the fact that the District Council’s
strength in negotiations comes in large measure by its
ability to supply highly skilled, responsible workers to
employers, it shall be the duty of all members to render
a fair days work in a workmanlike manner. Any member,
who is terminated for cause three times within a twenty-
four month period, from a position under a District
Council collective bargaining agreement, shall be sub-
ject to charges. Unless the Trial Board finds exceptional
circumstances, the penalty shall be expulsion from
membership.
In cases where the terminations resulted strictly from
lack of skills, the Trial Board may require the member to
attend Journeyperson upgrade training classes in lieu of
expulsion. For members whose termination was a re-
sult of falling in the category of dispensated Member as
defined by Section 102 of the IUPAT Constitution, the
Trial Board may recommend that Section 102 be imple-
mented in lieu of expulsion.
Article XIX – Change of Seattle Office Address.
Addendum – Change of Local Addresses and dele-
tion of merged Locals.
