(a) Substitute teachers shall be certified, wherever possible, and shall be paid at the following rates per full day, including vacation pay:

Upon commencement of the sixth (6th) day of extended substitute teaching, a substitute teacher shall be paid for each day taught at the per diem rate (to be calculated as 1/x of the salary to which a teacher of the same qualifications and experience would be entitled under the basic salary schedule of the current collective agreement, where x = the number of days in the current school year). Such pay shall be retroactive to the first day of the assignment, and the rate of pay for the extended teaching assignment shall continue in effect until the end of the extended teaching assignment.
In-service days and/or Administrative days shall not constitute a break in the extended teaching assignment.

A substitute teacher who has been employed for at least nine (9) consecutive days of extended substitute teaching in a school year shall be entitled to one (1) day of sick leave with pay for each nine (9) days taught in that assignment. Sick leave shall not accumulate from one extended substitute teacher assignment to another.
The use of a sick leave day with pay shall not constitute an interruption of the extended substitute teaching assignment.
(h) Manitoba Teachers’ Society fees and St. James-Assiniboia Teachers’ Association fees shall be deducted from a substitute teacher’s pay monthly.
(i) The Association shall indemnify and save harmless the Division from any and all losses, costs, liabilities, or expenses suffered or sustained by the Division as a result of any claim or legal action arising from the deduction of local Association fees or Manitoba Teachers’ Society fees.
