7.01 The establishment of classifications for remuneration of Residents shall conform with the level of their approved training as recognized by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada  (the “RCPS”) or the College of Family Physicians of Canada (the “CFPC”) unless another classification is recommended by the Faculty Postgraduate Medical Education Committee (the “PGME”) of the Faculty of Medicine, University of Manitoba, and agreed to, in writing, by the Resident.

7.02 A Resident who transfers into another program shall receive credit for previous training in terms of the number of completed years of approved training according to the requirements and regulations of the program to which the Resident is transferring as defined by the RCPS or the CFPC, unless another classification is recommended by the PGME.

NOTE:
(i)    Where a Department of the University or a Program Director requires a postgraduate training in excess of the training required by RCPS as a prerequisite to the successful completion of training leading to certification in a particular program (provided such training is not remedial training due to unsuccessful completion of a previous year of training), such extra training, for the purpose of calculating the remuneration level of the Resident concerned, shall be considered to be required by and acceptable to the RCPS as leading to certification in that program and the Resident shall be guaranteed a fully funded position at the same remuneration level.  It is understood that the application of this provision shall not result in a Resident being paid or classified at a level higher than Level VIII (PGY-8).

7.04   
(a) The foregoing salary classifications shall apply to all Residents registered through the Division of Postgraduate Medical Education of the University of Manitoba during the term of this Collective Agreement.

(b) Remuneration levels for the salary classifications shall be as set out in Schedule “1” attached hereto.

(c) Administrative allowances for Chief and Senior Administrative Residents shall be paid as follows:

(i)CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE RESIDENT:

A Resident with special administrative responsibilities relating to the academic and service activities of an entire department.  This Resident is assigned specific administrative duties, in addition to those expected as a normal part of his/her program.

An Administrative Allowance of Two Hundred and Seventy-Five Dollars ($275.00) per month shall be paid for this position.

(ii)    SENIOR ADMINISTRATIVE RESIDENT:

A Resident with special administrative responsibilities relating to the academic and service activities of a section of a department in which there are at least five (5) trainees (clinical clerks, Residents) at a given time.  This Resident is assigned specific administrative duties, in addition to those expected as a normal part of his/her program.

An administrative allowance shall be paid for this position, at a rate of one-half the administrative allowance of the Chief Administrative Resident position.

7.05 Each Resident shall be paid appropriate remuneration once every two (2) weeks.

7.1 Any retroactive payments due to a Resident following the conclusion of a revised Collective Agreement shall be paid to the Resident within thirty (30) days, exclusive of weekends and holidays, of the signing of the Collective Agreement.
