- C and M. Departmental seniority shall mean the term of service beginning on the date the employee begins employment within the custodian bargaining unit department. In the event a member transfers departments within Local 1579 (e.g., an employee moves from the custodial unit to the paraprofessional unit), he/she forfeits all vacation and departmental seniority rights, however, he/she will retain the sick leave accumulation he/she earned under his/her previous department. Under no circumstances, however, shall an employee become eligible for a sick leave or a longevity payment upon severance of employment by transferring from one Local 1579 department to another, (e.g., a paraprofessional hired prior to the 2007-2010 contract will not be eligible for terminal leave or a sick leave payout if he/she transfers into the custodial unit).
