Discussions Before Termination. (a) Where an employer has made a definite decision that the employer no longer wishes the job the teacher has been doing done by anyone and this is not due to the ordinary and customary turnover of labour and that decision may lead to termination of employment, the employer shall hold discussions with the teachers directly affected and with their Union, where applicable. (b) The discussion shall take place as soon as is practicable after the employer has made a definite decision which will invoke the provisions of paragraph (a) of this subclause and shall cover among other things, any reasons for the proposed terminations, measures to avoid or minimise the terminations and measures to minimise any adverse affect of any terminations on the teachers concerned. The employer will confirm the content of these discussions in writing. (c) When the employer identifies a potential redundancy and before a teacher is named as the person whose position has been declared redundant, the employer shall offer all teachers at that school the opportunity to take leave without pay for a period of one school year or such a period to resolve the potential redundancy. Where a suitable application is received that resolves the potential redundancy, then the teacher shall be granted leave without pay for the period.
