Common use of Dissolving a Job Share Clause in Contracts

Dissolving a Job Share. Section M.10.1 If a job share is dissolved, the individual who held a position in that building prior to the formation of the job share (the "owner") retains the right to that position after the dissolution of the job share. The job share partner who gave up another full-time position to join the job share (the "visitor") will be placed as though returning from a leave of absence, but will also retain the right to request a transfer unless a vacancy exists in the current location. If no vacancy exists, the individual may list his/her current location on his/her transfer request list. (Both partners in the job share retain all building seniority accrued prior to the formation of the job share and continue to accrue additional building seniority during the job share. This total accrued seniority may be used in the transfer process.) Section M.10.2 If only one of the job share partners wishes to dissolve the job share, the remaining job share partner may seek a different teacher-partner at the current location provided that individual is the "owner" of the position. If the remaining job share partner is the "visitor,” he/she may seek a different partner in another position at that location or at a new location. The "visitor" will take all accrued building seniority with him/her to the new location and will continue to accrue seniority for transfer purposes in the new location. Section M.10.3 If the individual wishing to continue in a job share is unsuccessful in finding a new job share partner, he/she may also elect to return to full-time in the position currently held, provided he/she is the "owner" of that position.

If no vacancy exists, the individual may list his/her current location on the transfer request. Section M.10.4 In the event that the original job share partner who was the "owner" of the position is no longer part of the job share, the individual having the most seniority in the job share retains the right to the position. Section M.10.5 If both job share partners were originally located in the same building and it cannot be determined who held the position originally, the individual with the most building seniority will be considered the "owner" of the position; the individual with the least building seniority will be considered the "visitor" and may seek a different job share partner in another position at the current location if a vacancy exists, or in another building if such vacancy does not exist; or the individual will be placed as though returning from a leave of absence, but will also retain the right to request a transfer to a full-time position which may include the current location.
