altered by the rearrangement of positions, finds himself unable to
perform the duties thereof can be returned to his former position and
wage or salary without loss of seniority; Item 4 provides for the
addition of "rank" after the name of each officer or firefighter on the
seniority list; Item 5 clarifies overtime when an employee is required
to work half an hour overtime after his regular shift; Item 6 to provide
that dental coverage be extended to include employees who are included
in the Supplementary Pension Plan will be dealt with by Arbitration, as an

Burnaby and Vancouver contracts; however, the Agreement is still subject
to approval by the Anti-Inflation Board.
