This Memorandum is intended to set out the parties’ understanding of the Corporation’s certificate requirements for Chief Officer, Mate (ASTO, Minor and Intermediate Vessels), and Second, Third and Fourth Officer (Crews). Without prejudice to the Corporation’s residual right to establish certificate requirements and selection criteria, it is understood that except for regulatory changes or significant changes in the Corporation’s operation, the certificate requirements identified herein shall remain in place for the foreseeable future. It is also understood that should the regulations or operations change, the parties shall meet to discuss the impact of such changes.
The parties acknowledge the following:
1. The Corporation has set the minimum certificate requirement for a Chief Officer, Large, Northern, Spirit, and Pacific Cat Vessels, and for an ASTO Mate, Minor Vessel at a CN1 certificate (Master Local Voyage). This certificate enables the holder to sail as Master without voyage to tonnage restrictions on the coast of British Columbia.

The holder shall be eligible for appointment or substitution to the position for which s/he has been successfully assessed.
2. The Corporation has set the minimum certificate requirement for Second, Third, and Fourth Officers, (except Second Officer, Staffing Pool and Second Officer, Northern Vessel), at a Watch Keeping Mate certificate (WKM).

The holder shall be eligible for appointment or substitution to the position for which s/he has been successfully assessed.
3. The Corporation has set the minimum certificate requirement for a Second Officer, Northern Vessel at the CN11 certificate (Mate Local Voyage). Possession of the CN11 certificate, or its equivalent, permits the holder to be assessed as a Second Officer, Northern Vessel. The holder shall be eligible for appointment or substitution to the position for which s/he has been successfully assessed.
4. The Corporation has set the minimum certificate requirement for a Mate, Minor and Mate, Intermediate Vessel at a Watch Keeping Mate Ferry Mate Long Run Endorsed certificate (WKM-E). This certificate enables the holder to sail as a Mate of a ferry on the coast of British Columbia without voyage or tonnage restrictions. Possession of the WKM-E certificate, or its equivalent, permits the holder to be assessed for a Mate, Minor or Mate, Intermediate Vessel. The holder shall be eligible for appointment or substitution to the position for which s/he has been successfully assessed.
5. An employee who has successfully assessed, cleared, and who has substituted as Chief Officer with a CN11-E or WKM-E certificate, as of October 9, 1998, shall continue to be eligible for substitution as Chief Officer, Large, Spirit, or Northern Vessel, at her/his present point of assembly. These employees shall also be eligible for appointment as Mate, Minor or Mate, Intermediate Vessel. These employees shall be eligible for substitution at other points of assembly, or to be appointed as Chief Officer, Large, Spirit, or Northern Vessels on completion of the CN1 certificate, (Master Local Voyage), or its equivalent. These employees shall not be further assessed for Chief Officer, provided the employee has continued to periodically substitute as a Chief Officer, Large, Spirit, or Northern Vessel and provided the CN1 certificate, or its equivalent, has been obtained within four (4) years following October 9, 1998. This protection shall not apply to substitution or appointments as Chief Officer on Pacific Cat Vessels.

These employees shall also be eligible for substitution or appointment as Second Officer, Large, or Spirit Vessel and as Mate, Minor or Mate, Intermediate Vessel. This protection shall not apply to substitution or appointments as Second Officer, Staffing Pool or Second Officer on Pacific Cat Vessels.

An employee who has been successfully assessed as Chief Officer, Large or Spirit Vessel, with a WKM-E or CN11-E certificate, who has not been cleared or who has not substituted as Chief Officer, Large, or Spirit Vessel, shall not be eligible for substitution on those vessels. These employees are eligible for appointment as Mate, Minor and Mate, Intermediate Vessel. The assessment that has been successfully completed for the position of Chief Officer, Large, or Spirit Vessel shall be recognized provided the employee has obtained a CN1 certificate, or its equivalent, within four (4) years following October 9, 1998. Those employees who wish to become eligible for substitution or appointment to the position of Chief Officer, Large, or Spirit Vessel shall be required to successfully complete a further assessment based on incremental revisions to the selection criteria.

MOU IX Job Evaluation and Pay Grid Revision Committee**
(a) Additional Funding
In the April 1, 2000 to March 31, 2001 budget year, the Employer shall commit one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the then current annual regular employee unionized payroll (that is, the amount for regular employees pay only) for purposes of addressing inequities resulting from implementation of the job evaluation plan.

Within three months of (the date of Union ratification), the parties shall form a joint technical working committee on job evaluation and pay grid revision comprising of up to four (4) technical experts appointed by each side. The committee shall make decisions by consensus, shall develop its own methods of proceeding, and shall meet in accordance with clause 2.11.
The committee’s mandate is to develop recommendations regarding amendments to the salary grid and, if necessary, other aspects of the Licensed and Unlicensed Job Evaluation Plans. These recommendations shall, if possible, be presented to the parties for their ratification during the term of the current Collective Agreement. No change shall be made to the salary grids of the Job Evaluation Plans unless they are ratified by both parties.
Without limiting the scope of the committee’s work, the committee shall endeavour to develop new, and more appropriate grade levels based upon the existing evaluated rates for each job.
