2. Posting of wages and rules.
The scale of wages and the rules in regard to working conditions shall be posted in a conspicuous place at or near every mine.
3. No discrimination on account of membership or non-membership in labor or other organizations.
There shall be no discrimination by the company or by any of its employees on account of membership or non-membership in any society, fraternity or union.
4. The right to hire and discharge, and the management of the properties.
The right to hire and discharge, the management of the properties, and the direction of the working forces, shall be vested exclusively in the company, and, except as expressly restricted, this right shall not be abridged by anything contained herein.
5. Employees’ right to caution or suspension before discharge.
There shall be posted at each property a list of offenses for commission of which by an employee dismissal may result without notice. For other offenses, employees shall not be discharged without first having been notified that a repetition of the offense will be cause for dismissal. A copy of this notification shall, at the time of its being given to an employee, be sent also to the president’s industrial representative and retained by him for purposes of future reference. Nothing herein shall abridge the right of the company to relieve employees from duty because of lack of work. Where relief from duty through lack of work becomes necessary, men with families shall, all things being equal, be given preference.
