Consultation with the Union Clause Samples

Consultation with the Union. A reasonable time before any budget reduction or change of program that may result in the layoff of supervisors, the District shall notify the Union of the financial and program status of the District and of the possible need to eliminate or reduce classified positions. The District and the Union shall meet not later than ten days following notification to the Union. The purpose of the discussion is to examine alternatives and opportunities available to each supervisor who may be subject to layoff, unique conditions that may affect specific supervisors and the possible consequences for other supervisors. The District may hold division, department or campus meetings to explain the conditions leading to layoff and to explain the reasons for selecting certain positions for layoff. The Union staff may be present and participate at such meetings.
