Think back to the first time
you were in a fall LTO and submitted your QECO category change for the first
time to the Board, and through no fault of your own, had your QECO
processing delayed beyond the Dec. 31st submission deadline. Were
you paid retroactively back to the start of your LTO? If this is the case,
please email us, asap at: etfotvot@gmail.com
Article L18.01 of our
collective agreement stipulates that Occasional Teachers should receive “all
keys necessary to the assignment”. If you are not receiving keys for your
daily assignments at particular schools, please e-mail the Local at: etfotvot@gmail.com. Under no circumstances should
you be required to trade a personal item (e.g. car keys) for the classroom
keys.
