Community briefs Minnova visits Schreiber School The senior kindergarten class at Schreiber Public School invited representatives from Minnova Inc., Winston Lake Division, to visit their classroom to do a small pre- sentation. The theme was "our community worker." Mine Manager Tom Dick- son and Receptionist Madge Richardson, visited the class on Thursday, Feb. 6. Dickson explained the clothing and equipment wom by a miner for his work under- ground. The children were suitably impressed when he stood before them all suited compiled by Darren MacDonald up. Each child was given a sample of the ore mined at Winston Lake. Colouring books explaining the mining process and Win- ston Lake balloons were dis- tributed to each child as mementos, as well as books outlining many of the items made from or with zinc to take home and share with their families. The children were very attentive and quite excited to share their stories as well. Education grants announced Education Minister Tony Silipo has announced the gen- eral legislative grants (GLG) to school boards. This is the formula whereby boards can determine how much money they will receive from the ministry in grants. The total amount of money the ministry will provide this year is $4.923 billion. "While the Treasurer's announcement restricted over- all transfer payments to school boards to a one per cent increase, the GLG announced today will moderate the impact of this small increase |} on the less affluent boards," Silipo. "We must move ahead as quickly as possible with a more equitable system of funding education," he said.

"I would say it (the agree- ment) is unprecedented in that it was reached not under duress, but in between contract negotiations," says Davis. Grimm says the pact will help eliminate some arbitrary job classifications that have evolved over time. "Years ago, management and labour got together and said 'We're going to make one person a nail driver, and some- body else a board sawer and another person a glass cutter'," he says. "Those are the kinds of bar- riers we're talking about elimi- nating--job description barri- ers that don't do anything except divide work up in a meaningless fashion." Davis says he hopes that the agreement will help avoid trou- bles other pulp mills are facing. "What we're trying to avoid is exactly what's happening at Domtar and other mills," he says. "We're trying to work with the company to get a bet- ter trained work force and to produce the pulp at a more eco- nomic rate." Davis says he hopes the agreement will lead to a stable workforce at Kimberly-Clark. "In the long-term, we're probably not going to have any major layoffs," he says, "but there will probably be a reduced workforce." Grimm says the short-term impact on the mill is uncertain.

"I think we'll have a year of rough sledding, and then a year from now we'll have some demonstrable results." Grimm says that during the course of negotiations, they learned that the best way to implement an agreement like this was to keep it as unstruc- tured as possible. "Basically we found two types of groups," he says. "One group came out with a very specific plan--they said here's 48 steps, follow these steps and you'll be okay. But the other group said 'We don't really know what we can do differ- ently, but we know we have to do something." A year later, Grimm says the second group was making progress after some false starts. "And the group with the 48 steps were at each other's throats because they discov- | ered that they didn't really understand the process that well," he says. "Nobody in this area has really done this before, so I can't really forecast how far we're going tO go, Says Davis.
