[QUOTE="HubBub, post: 1033911, member: 39666"] This one has me scratching my head: "No supervisor or employee shall be allowed to turn on a moving belt that they did not turn off. Only the supervisor or employee that turned the belt off shall be allowed to turn the belt on when the area is deemed safe." Firstly, more often than not its workers turning the belts on and off, so this language will mostly just lead to workers being in violation of the contract. Secondly, if the belt is moving (as per the first sentence), why would anyone need to turn it on? Or are they referring to belts that can potentially move? Is there such a thing as a belt that cannot move? Thirdly, it's just impractical. What if the person who turned off the belt has left the area or the building and we need the belt on? Do we go searching for him or call him back before we can resume the operation? Just a strange paragraph imo. [/QUOTE]
