In force for the next five years, they are important ad- ditions to the Board's present financial restraint program. They could result in savings of many hundreds of thousands of dollars. Board administrators and District 41, Ontario Secon- dary School Tea hers' Federation develope la ns for the policies in accordance with the Revised Teachers' Superannuation Act of 1983. The plans will allow senior teachers opportunities and in- centives to retire early and will provide opportunity to hire- teachers as significant cost savings. With examples based on discussion with teachers at one secondary school, Jack Sifton, Chief Negotiator for District 41, OSSTF, estimates that total potenti vings at that school over the nex 've years could be $452,000. Here are some features of the job sharing plan: only full- time permanent teachers can take part; only two people can share one full-time posi- tion; sharing can be on a dai- ly, term, or semester basis; and a teacher may take part in job sharing only three times. The Early Retirement In- centive. -Plan includes these conditions: only full-time per- manent teachers with at least seven continuous years in Middlesex can take part; and the plan is not to cost the board more money than is to be saved by the retirement. • The superannuation credit for previous employment credits that will be financial- ly advantageous not only to OPEN 6 DAYS A WEEK COMMENCING SATURDAY JULY 7/84 MONDAY THRU THURSDAY 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. FRIDAY SATURDAY 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. 9:00 a.m. to 1 p.m. Member: Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation C VG • VLCIOR1A AND GREY '[RUST Since 1844 425 MAIN STREET, EXETER PHONE 235-0530 oai6wood burr feed attjacts 600 people the teacher but also to the • board. Director of Education Stewart Toll has called the ,move, "the most exciting 'development in Board person- nel work since the board's for- mation fifteen years ago." He believes the whole plan may be a lighthouse project for'On- tario. While other boards may be considering similar plans, a$ far as is known locally, Middlesex is the first to declare policy statements in detail. When the plan ends in August 1989, the Early Retire- ment Incentive Plan will be re-established in the Board's Collective Agreement with its secondary school teachers.
