Displacement Allowances. (a) So long after a displaced employee’s displacement as he is unable, in the normal exercise of his seniority rights under existing agreements, rules and practices, to obtain a position producing compensation equal to or exceeding the compensation he received in the position from which he was displaced, he shall, during his protective period, be paid a monthly displacement allowance equal to the difference between the monthly compensation received by him in the position in which he is retained and the average monthly compensation received by him in the position from which he was displaced. Each displaced employee’s displacement allowance shall be determined by dividing separately by 12 the total compensation received by the employee and the total time for which he was paid during the last 12 months in which he performed services immediately preceding the date of this displacement as a result of the transaction (thereby producing average monthly compensation and average monthly time paid for in the test period). Both the above “total compensation” and the “total time for which he was paid” shall be adjusted to reflect the reduction on an annual basis, if any, which would have occurred during the specified twelve month period had Public Law 91-169, amending the Hours of Service Act of 1907, been in effect throughout such period (i.e., 14 hours limit for any allowance paid during the period between December 26, 1970 and December 25, 1972 and 12 hours limit for any allowances paid thereafter); provided further, that such allowance shall also be adjusted to reflect subsequent general wage increases. If a displaced employee’s compensation in his retained position in any month is less in any month in which he performs work than the aforesaid average compensation (adjusted to reflect subsequent general wage increases) to which he would have been entitled, he shall be paid the difference, less compensation for time lost on account of his voluntary absences to the extent that he is not available for service equivalent to his average monthly time during the test period but if in his retained position he works in any month in excess of the aforesaid average monthly time paid for during the test period he shall be additionally compensated for such excess time at the rate of pay of the retained position. (b) If a displaced employee fails to exercise his seniority rights to secure another position available to him which does not require a change in his place of residence, to which he is entitled under the working agreement and which carries a rate of pay and compensation exceeding those of the position which he elects to retain, he shall thereafter be treated for the purposes of this section as occupying the position he elects to decline. (c) The displacement allowance shall cease prior to the expiration of the protective period in the event of the displaced employee’s resignation, death, retirement or dismissal for justifiable cause.
