Claiming. In order to avoid a layoff or bump, an employee may take a transfer or demotion to a vacancy in another Agency (or in the Department of Transportation a seniority unit) in a class/class option for which the employee is determined qualified by the Employer. The receiving Agency shall determine if the employee is qualified for the position, and if so shall not unreasonably deny the request. An employee who has a layoff option that is transferable, within the same employment condition and within thirty-five (35) miles (for MnDOT within the seniority unit) must take the vacancy before a claim. Eligibility for claiming under this provision begins on the date of the written layoff notice and continues until fourteen (14) calendar days after the actual date of layoff. No severance or vacation liquidation shall be paid to the employee and the employee's name shall not be placed on any layoff lists until the end of the claiming period. Employees may waive their post-layoff claiming rights and the Agency shall authorize payment of any severance or vacation liquidation and the employee will be eligible for placement on appropriate layoff lists.
