Recall Rights Teachers whose contracts have been suspended or non-renewed because of a reduction in force shall be so notified in writing and shall have rights to recall as follows:
1. Recall rights shall be limited to the twenty-four (24) months period commencing on the day following the employee's last day of work.
2. Teachers whose contracts were non-renewed or suspended shall be recalled to a vacancy in the inverse order of non-renewal or suspension as positions become available in their area of certification/licensure at the time of recall; provided however, that certificated tutors whose contracts were non-renewed or suspended shall be recalled only to certificated tutor vacancies, and then in the inverse order of non-renewal of suspension as such positions become available in their area of certification/licensure at the time of recall; and further provided however, seniority shall not be the basis for recalling a teacher, except when making a decision between teachers who have comparable evaluations. Teachers must notify the District of any changes in their area of certification/licensure.
3. A teacher notified of recall to a position may turn down the first offered position, allowing the Superintendent to offer said position to the next person on the recall list who is qualified to fill said position. The person making the turndown would retain his/her position on the recall list. If a teacher refuses recall to another position, said teacher's name shall be removed from the recall list; except no teacher shall be removed from the recall list for refusing a lesser position (time or pay) than the one from which he/she was reduced. Provided however, no teacher whose continuing contract has been suspended shall lose the right of recall and restoration to continuing service status by reason of having declined recall to a position that is less than full-time or, if the teacher was not employed full-time just prior to suspension of the teacher's continuing contract, to a position requiring a lesser percentage of full-time employment than the position the teacher last held while employed in the district.
4. Teachers on recall status shall have the responsibility for keeping the Superintendent informed of their current address, name change, and telephone number. Notification of recall shall be by certified mail at the teacher's last known address. Failure to contact the Superintendent to accept such recall within ten (10) calendar days of the date of such mailing shall remove the teacher from recall status.
5. Teachers, who during recall receive additional training or additional areas of certification/licensure, shall provide documentation of such to the Board, who shall upgrade the teacher’s status on the Recall List. No new employees shall be hired to fill a vacancy until teachers on the Recall List have been asked to fill the vacancy.
LAYOFFS AND RECALL 16.01 It is not the intent of these lay-off and recall procedures to apply to the normal summer period. However, where known, recall dates of ten (10) month employees shall be indicated on the Separation Certificate issued by the Employer.
16.02 In the event of lay-off, employees shall be laid off in reverse order of their seniority provided that those persons retained have the necessary skills, qualifications, and ability to perform the duties of those jobs maintained.
a) In order to minimize the potentially disruptive nature of an Educational Assistant lay-off during the school year, an Educational Assistant who has received a lay-off notice during the school year may elect to:
i) Accept the lay-off and be recalled under the terms of the Collective Agreement or;
ii) Displace the most junior permanent Educational Assistant in the Division.
b) Where there are Educational Assistants who are on lay-off or who are laid off at the end of June, and there will not be sufficient positions in September for them all to be recalled, then the Employer will lay-off a sufficient number of the most junior Educational Assistants so as to enable the more senior Educational Assistants to be recalled in September.
c) Educational Assistants who receive a lay-off notice must declare their intention to displace a junior Educational Assistant within the first five (5) working days of receipt of the lay-off notice. It is agreed between the parties that failure to do so will mean that the Educational Assistant accepts lay-off at the end of the notice period.
16.03 Employees shall be recalled in order of their seniority provided that the person recalled has the necessary skills, qualifications, and ability to perform the duties of the job.
16.04 New employees shall not be hired if there are employees on lay-off with the necessary skills, qualifications, and ability to perform the work.
16.05 In the event of lay-off, every employee affected shall be given four (4) weeks’ notice before the date on which she is to be laid off, and to the extent that such minimum notice is not given, the employee shall receive pay in lieu thereof.
16.06 Grievances concerning lay-offs and recalls shall be initiated at Step II of the grievance procedure.
16.07 Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 15.01, an Educational Assistant who normally works twenty-seven and one-half (27 ½) or more hours per week, and whose hours of work have been unilaterally reduced during the school year, shall, at the Educational Assistant’s option, be deemed to have been laid off. An Educational Assistant accepting a position having fewer hours than their normal working day will be given primary consideration upon application when new positions become available having comparable hours.
16.08 All Educational Assistants laid off shall be placed on a recall list, with copy furnished to the Union, and shall be called back to work as required beginning with the most senior Educational Assistant and descending from there.
16.09 No Educational Assistant shall be permitted to have her name remain on the recall list in excess of twelve (12) school months following the month in which the layoff occurred.
Call Rights (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 4, the Company shall have the following call rights with respect to the Warrant:
(i) immediately upon receipt of any Exercise Notice from the Holder and prior to any pending Exercise Date (as determined pursuant to Section 2(b)), the Company shall have the right to purchase that portion of the Warrant proposed to be exercised by the Holder pursuant to such Exercise Notice, and if the Company exercises such right, the Holder shall be required to sell such portion of the Warrant to the Company at a purchase price (the "Call Price") determined in accordance with Section 4(b);
(ii) at any time within thirty (30) days following (a) the date of the Company's delivery to the Holder of the appraisal performed by an independent appraiser at the Company's request in connection with the ESOP that sets forth the per share value of the Common Stock as of September 30, 2009 (the "September 2009 Appraisal"), if the ESOP is still in existence on September 30, 2009 and none of clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of "Current Market Price" in Section 3(c)(ii) below are applicable, or (b) the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Effective Date, if the conditions of clause (b) above are not met (in either case, the "First Put/Call Date"), the Company shall have the right to purchase up to fifty percent (50%) of the Warrant from the Holder, and if the Company exercises such right, the Holder shall be required to sell up to fifty percent (50%) of the Warrant to the Company at the Call Price determined in accordance with Section 4(b) below; and
(iii) at any time within thirty (30) days prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall have the right to purchase up to one hundred percent (100%) of the Warrant from the Holder, and if the Company exercises such right, the Holder shall be required to sell the Warrant or any portion thereof, as the case may be, to the Company at the Call Price determined in accordance with Section 4(b) below.
Required Filings Relating to Placement of Placement Shares The Company agrees that on such dates as the Securities Act shall require, the Company will (i) file a prospectus supplement with the Commission under the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (each and every filing under Rule 424(b), a “Filing Date”), which prospectus supplement will set forth, within the relevant period, the amount of Placement Shares sold through Xxxxx, the Net Proceeds to the Company and the compensation payable by the Company to Xxxxx with respect to such Placement Shares, and (ii) deliver such number of copies of each such prospectus supplement to each exchange or market on which such sales were effected as may be required by the rules or regulations of such exchange or market.
Material Transactions or Affiliations Except as disclosed herein and in the IACH Schedules, there exists no contract, agreement or arrangement between IACH and any predecessor and any person who was at the time of such contract, agreement or arrangement an officer or director. IACH has no commitment, whether written or oral, to lend any funds to, borrow any money from, or enter into any other transaction with, any such affiliated person.
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS (a) Employees will be laid off in reverse order of seniority whenever there is a reduction of employees in the bargaining unit. The only exception to this provision is when the client requests in writing that a specific security guard be retained at their site. Guards can bump due to (1) loss of site, (2) being bumped by a senior guard, (3) client removal for non-disciplinary reasons, (4) return from approved leave of absence or (5) loss of position on a site.
(b) The Company shall notify employees whose position is to be eliminated due to the loss of work at a specific site or the loss of the entire site at least five (5) working days prior to the effective date of termination of the position. Such employee will be entitled to bump junior employees at other sites in order to maintain employment and status. The company will meet with the affected employee and their Union representative as quickly as possible after notification in order to allow the employee to review options and make an informed decision where they wish to bump into. The parties will attempt to place the security guard into an alternate site where said guard will not lose any days of pay, but in no event, will the placement, or bumping take more than five (5) working days (no more than five (5) unpaid days). If an employee is not slotted into their new position within said five (5) working days, the company will provide payment in lieu of work. During the up to five (5) days waiting period, the employee will be entitled to be on top of the spare board list if they so desire.
(c) The Company shall generally give notice of recall by registered mail to the last recorded address of the employee. The employee shall keep the Company informed of the employee's present address of location where he may be reached. The employee who fails to do so shall forfeit his right of recall.
(d) If, within one (1) calendar day from the receipt of such notice, the employee accepts the recall, the job will be held open for one (1) calendar day from the day of the employee's acceptance. In the event that such recalled employee is employed elsewhere at the time of recall, the Company will hold the position vacant for two (2) weeks if the Company has received appropriate advance notice from its client.
(e) In circumstances where the Company must fill vacant positions without delay, the Company shall give notice of recall by telephone until able to find a qualified employee who is prepared to report to work immediately.
(f) If the employee declines the position, or fails to respond to the notice within one (1) calendar day from the date of receipt of the original notice, or fails to report to work within the time period outlined above, such employee shall be considered to have resigned and shall forfeit his recall rights. Should such employee be prevented from returning to work due to illness or accident he shall retain his recall rights and the Company shall be at liberty to recall another employee. The employee shall be required to show proof of such illness or accident.
Layoff and Recall Procedure a. In the event that a bargaining unit member's position is eliminated or reduced, or the bargaining unit member is bumped, said bargaining unit member shall have the right to bump the bargaining unit member with the least seniority among those bargaining unit members with equal or more scheduled work hours in the classification; provided that said bargaining unit member is qualified for the position.
b. Only if no position is available with equal or more scheduled work hours in the classification for which the employee is qualified and for which she is more senior, said bargaining unit member shall have the right to bump the bargaining unit member with lower seniority among those bargaining unit members whose number of work hours in the classification most closely aligns with her original hours; provided that said bargaining unit member is qualified for the position. The bargaining unit member shall have no more than two (2) work days after receipt of her layoff notice or schedule reduction notice to notify the Board in writing of her intention to exercise her right to bump, and the specific position which she intends to bump. If the employee fails to exercise her right to bump within two workdays under this article, she shall be laid off. If the employee exercises her right to bump under this article, the Board shall notify the bargaining unit member within two (2) workdays to verify the effective starting date for the position, and follow up said notification in writing as soon as practicable.
c. When a vacancy occurs, bargaining unit members in the classification who are on layoff shall be recalled in the following order:
(1) Laid off bargaining unit members in the classification of the vacancy in the order of most seniority first;
(2) Laid off bargaining unit members not in the classification of the vacancy in the order of most seniority first, provided that the bargaining unit member is qualified for the job;
(3) In no case shall a new employee be hired by the Board while there are laid-off bargaining unit members who are qualified for a vacant or newly-created bargaining unit position.
Layoff and Recall Section 19.1 Reasons, Notice When the Employer determines, because of lack of work, lack of funds, reorganization, or a job abolishment that is to last more than one (1) year, a layoff is necessary, the Employer shall notify the affected employees twenty-one (21) calendar days in advance of the effective date of the layoff or job abolishment. It is understood and agreed that no provisions of Civil Service Law or rules shall apply to layoffs.
Section 19.2 Classifications The Employer shall determine in which classification(s) layoffs will occur. Within each classification affected, employees will be laid off in accordance with their classification seniority for the classifications affected by the layoff. The employee(s) with the least classification seniority as defined in Article 20 will be laid off first. Bumping or displacement will also occur in accordance with the employee’s seniority with the least senior employee, as defined by Article 20, laid off first.
Section 19.3 Recall List Employees who are laid off shall be placed on a recall list for a period of eighteen (18) months. If there is a recall, employees who are still on the recall list shall be recalled, in the inverse order of their layoff. Notice of recall shall be sent to the employees by certified or registered mail. The Employer shall be deemed to have fulfilled its obligation by mailing the recall notice by registered mail, return receipt requested, to the last mailing address provided by the employee. Employees shall be responsible for keeping the Office notified, in writing, of any changes in his address. The recalled employee shall have seven (7) calendar days following the receipt of the recall notice to notify the Employer of his intention to return to work and shall have fourteen (14) calendar days following the receipt of the recall notice in which to report for duty, unless a different date for returning to work is otherwise specified in the notice. If the employee does not respond within seven (7) calendar days the employee shall be removed from the recall list. If, upon recall, an employee must receive additional training, the Employer shall provide and pay for the training required to maintain his certification. The employee shall be required to complete the training in a timely fashion established by the Employer. If the employee fails to complete the training, the employee may be removed without recourse to the grievance procedure or the State Personnel Board of Review.
Section 19.4 Bumping Bumping rights will be extended to the employee under this Agreement. Employees may bump or displace employees in other classifications so long as the employee previously worked in the classification or assignment and displaces an employee with less seniority. Employees from other bargaining units not covered by this Agreement, and other employees of the Sheriff’s Office who previously worked in a classification covered by this Agreement, may displace into positions covered by this Agreement so long as the employee displaced has less classification seniority. The employee displaced will be the one with the least seniority. Employees seeking to displace less senior employees will displace to the most recently held classification, and the next most recent, etc. until the employee is able to displace a less senior employee. If no employee in a previously-held classification has less seniority, then the employee seeking to displace shall be laid off. Employees displaced shall be placed on the recall list. An employee who is displaced may take a voluntary layoff, when layoffs occur rather than displace to a lower classification.
Time Off for Union Activities The employer agrees to grant the necessary time off, without discrimination or loss of seniority rights and without pay, to any employee designated by the Union to attend a labor convention provided that there is two-week notice of any union convention. Due consideration shall be given to the number of personnel affected in order that there shall be no disruptions of employer's operations due to lack of available employees.
LAY-OFF AND RECALL 13.01 In the event of a proposed lay-off of a permanent or long-term nature, the Employer will:
(a) Provide the Union with at least ninety (90) days’ notice.
(b) Meet with the Union to review the following:
(i) the reasons causing the lay-off;
(ii) the service which the Employer will undertake after the lay-off;
(iii) the method of implementation, including areas of cutback and the nurses to be laid off.
13.02 In the event of a proposed temporary lay-off, a bed cutback or a cutback in service, the Employer shall provide the Union with reasonable notice. If requested, the Employer shall meet with the Union to review the effect on nurses in the bargaining unit.
13.03 Any agreement between the Employer and the Union resulting from the review above concerning the method of implementation will take precedence over the terms of this Article.
(a) A lay-off shall be defined as any reduction of a nurse's hours of work and/or a permanent discontinuation of a position.
(b) In the event of a lay-off, nurses shall be laid off in the reverse order of seniority. Subject to the foregoing, probationary nurses shall be first laid off. Casual part-time nurses shall not be utilized while full-time or regular part-time nurses remain on lay-off, unless all laid off nurses have been offered and declined any available work. An offer will have been deemed to have been made and declined when the Employer has attempted to contact the nurse by telephone and there is no answer or a message is left with a person or on an answering machine for the nurse to contact the Employer within a specified period of time and this contact is not made by the nurse. For an offer of a permanent or temporary rotation, in excess of thirty (30) days, if the telephone contact was unsuccessful, the Employer will notify the nurse by registered letter. The offer will be deemed to have been made and declined if the Employer does not receive a written response from the nurse within ten (10) calendar days.
(c) A nurse who has been notified of an impending lay-off may:
(i) accept the lay-off; or
(ii) exercise the right to bump or displace another nurse who has lesser bargaining unit seniority.
(d) Nurses shall be recalled in the order of seniority, unless otherwise agreed between the Employer and the Union.
(e) Where a vacancy occurs in a position following a lay-off hereunder as a result of which a full-time or part-time nurse has been transferred to another position, the affected nurse will be offered the opportunity to return to her/his former position providing such vacancy occurs within six (6) months of the date of lay-off. Where the nurse returns to her/his former position, there shall be no obligation to consider the vacancy under Article 12.05
(a) (i). Where the nurse refuses the opportunity to return to her/his former position, she/he shall advise the Employer in writing.
(f) No reduction in the hours of work shall take place to prevent or reduce the impact of a lay-off without the consent of the Union.
(g) All full-time and part-time nurses represented by the Union who are on lay-off will be given a job opportunity in the full-time and part-time categories before any new nurse is hired into either category.
(h) A full-time nurse shall maintain her full-time status and recall rights when accepting temporary or part-time recalls. It is understood that a nurse doing such a temporary vacancy will receive the percentage in lieu of benefits as per Article A.02 (e).
(i) Full-time and part-time lay-off and recall rights shall be separate.
