The Employer and the Union agree that where a wage adjustment is made, it shall not be used as the basis for argument or as comparison criteria to alter the classification or value of any other classification. The Pay Plan will be revised and renumbered to take into account that existing Pay Grades 30, 32, and 33 are no longer required and have been removed.
