Artisans are employed in 18 departments on a wide variety of duties which require dexterity and appropriate skills. These duties range from the installation, operation and servicing of mechanical and electrical equipment, supervision of subordinate staff, to rendering supporting services to medical personnel. It has been represented to us that generally no functional difference exists between Artisan I and Artisan II ranks. We accept this and propose that the two ranks should be combined and paid from a single pay scale in the appropriate group.
We
There are also ranks currently paid on the same scales as Artisans who perform skilled work at a similar level, and where the distinction is one of title only. recommend that these ranks be merged with the Artisan grade and paid from the same scale. These include the Chargeman/Artisan, Carpenter I and II, Electrician, Fitter, Plantman I and II, and Workshop Assistant grades. We also recommend that Painter I and II should be merged with the Artisan grade.
Departmental titles e.g. Artisan (Fitter), Artisan (Electrician), may be used to reflect the operational requirements of departments. In this regard, we also suggest that Artisans in the Cargo Handling Unit and the Pollution Control Unit of the Marine Department be given new departmental titles so as to reflect their duties more
accurately.
