Displacement Procedure. In all cases of reduction in work force or layoffs and rehiring, the principles of seniority shall govern, provided that the employee is qualified to perform the job. Employees shall be permitted to displace other employees as follows: 1) The most senior employee in the job classification in the affected unit to be reduced shall displace the least senior employee in the same or comparable positions at the same facility. If there is no same or comparable position at the facility, the employee may bump the least senior employee in the same or comparable position within the Region. The displacing employee shall be paid the step rate of the job classification nearest to, but not higher than, his/her former rate of pay. 2) The displaced employee shall be laid off. 3) If the displacing employee elects not to exercise his/her seniority pursuant to Paragraph (1) of this Section, s/he shall be laid off. 4) In the event an employee being affected is qualified to perform another classification within the same field, and wishes to change classifications, he/she must submit to Human Resources a timely written request to change classifications. Said requests will be accommodated provided a suitable vacancy exists.
