n order to hold the lead position, an employee must have a minimum of 5 years seniority in the bargaining unit and must have worked in one of the classifications they are seeking to lead for a minimum of 2 years. Should no potential candidate meet these requirements, employees with less than 5 years seniority may be considered if they can demonstrate 5 or more years’ comparable experience in a lead or leadership role and have worked in one of the classifications they are seeking to lead for a minimum of 2 years.

In the event candidates meet the above requirements, but are found not qualified by the selection committee, the Company may accept applications from employees who have at least 3 years seniority and must have worked in one of the classifications they are seeking to lead for a minimum of 1 year.

When the Company selects an employee for promotion to lead, preference will be given to the employee with the greatest seniority, where ability, training, job skills, and efficiency are substantially equal.

Leads will perform duties of their current classification. In addition, they will train employees, ensure team members have the proper parts and tools to perform work, and communicate daily priority of work assignments to be completed (taking into account available manpower). Leads will not have the responsibility nor authority to hire, fire, discipline, promote or demote, or monitor for the purpose of discipline, any employee.
