Wet Weather In the event of wet weather, work in the open will continue until the particular work in hand can no longer be done safely and efficiently. Whilst it is raining, employees will be required to: Continue to work under cover or relocate to alternative work under cover, on site. Obtain materials and services for employees working under cover where there is only minimal exposure to inclement weather. When required, perform emergency and safety work. In addition, work on unexpected breakdowns, which can be corrected in limited time duration. Should a portion of the project be affected by wet weather, all other employees not so affected shall continue working in accordance with award conditions, regardless that some employees may be entitled to cease work due to wet weather. If a halt to productive work occurs due to inclement weather, the parties agree that employees may be relocated to other unaffected sites. Where the above steps are not possible, affected employees may be required to attend tool box meetings, work planning sessions or skills development activities, all of which will count as productive time for payment purposes.
Demotion in Lieu of Layoff The appointing authority shall determine by class, subject to review by the Director, whether demotion shall be afforded employees as an option in lieu of layoff. At the request of the appointing authority, a permanent employee shall, in lieu of layoff, be afforded the option of demotion within the same department to a position in a lower class, provided that no such demotion shall in turn require the layoff or demotion from such lower class of any employee whose layoff rating is at least as high as that of the demoting employee. A probationary employee may be afforded the opportunity to accept a demotion within the same department to a position in a lower class provided no such demotion shall in turn require the layoff of any employee in the lower class. Such probationer shall not become permanent in the lower class by this action except by completing a new full probation period in such lower class.
Retirement in Lieu of Layoff Any employee who was subject to being, or was in fact, laid off and who is qualified for and who elected service retirement from the Public Employees’ Retirement System shall be placed on an appropriate reemployment list. The District shall notify the Board of Administration of the Public Employees’ Retirement System of the fact that retirement was due to layoff. If he/she is subsequently subject to reemployment and accepts, in writing, the appropriate vacant position, the District shall maintain the vacancy, but may fill it on a temporary basis until the Board of Administration of the Public Employees’ Retirement System has properly processed his/her request for reinstatement from retirement.

The agreement adopted based on paragraph 3, regarding the accelerated elimination of a customs duty for an originating good, shall prevail over any customs duty or tariff elimination schedule set out in the Annexes to this Article. 5.
