MAIN INDEX PARAGRAPH 211 - 220 (211) When eligible employees are on an approved leave of absence and return to work following the holiday but during the week in which the holiday falls, they shall be eligible for pay for that holiday. Eligible employees whose leave of absence terminates during the Christmas Holiday Period, and who report for work on the next scheduled work day after the Christmas Holiday Period, will be eligible for holiday pay beginning with the first holiday such employees would otherwise have worked and each holiday thereafter in the Christmas Holiday Period. (212) Employees not working in necessary continuous seven-day operations who may be requested to work on a holiday and have accepted such holiday work assignment and then fail to report for and perform such work, without reasonable cause, shall not receive holiday pay under this Holiday Pay Section. [See Par. (203)] (213) When any of the above-enumerated holidays falls on Sunday and the day following is observed as the holiday by the State or Federal Government, the day of observance shall be considered as the holiday under the provisions of this Holiday Pay Section. [See Par. (86)] (213a) It is the purpose of the Holiday Pay Provisions in Paragraphs (203) through (213) of this Agreement to enable eligible employees to enjoy the specified holidays with full straight time pay. If, with respect to a week included in the Christmas Holiday Period, employees supplement their Holiday Pay by claiming and receiving an unemployment compensation benefit, or claim and receive waiting period credit, to which they would not have been entitled if their Holiday Pay had been treated as remuneration for the week, such employees shall be obligated to pay to the Corporation the lesser of the following amounts: (a) an amount equal to their Holiday Pay for the week in question, or, (b) an amount equal to either the unemployment compensation paid to them for such week or the unemployment compensation which would have been paid to them for such week if it had not been a waiting period. The Corporation will deduct from earnings subsequently due and payable the amount which such employees are obligated to pay as provided above. GENERAL PROVISIONS (214) After consultation with the Shop Committee, the Corporation shall make reasonable rules in each plant regarding smoking. Any protest against the reasonableness of the rules may be treated as a grievance.

(218) Employees with seniority in any General Motors plant who are summoned and report for jury duty (including coroner’s juries), as prescribed by applicable law, or who report for pre-jury duty examination required by the court or administrative governmental agency, shall be paid by the Corporation an amount equal to the difference between the amount of wages including night shift premium) they otherwise would have earned by working during straight-time hours for the Corporation on that day and the daily jury duty fee paid by the court or agency (not including travel allowances or reimbursement of expenses), for the day on which they report for pre-jury duty examination, and for each day on which they report for or performs jury duty and on which they otherwise would have been scheduled to work for the Corporation.

A payment will be made for each day, except for a day for which they receive holiday pay, which they would otherwise have worked equal to the amount by which their straight time rate of pay as of their last day worked plus applicable night shift premium (but not including overtime) for not more than eight (8) hours, exceeds their military earnings for that day including all allowances except for rations, subsistence and travel.
