See Section 10.03 for order of call-outs based on seniority within each Section of the Field Operations Division. When establishing new sections within the Field Operations Division of the Department of Public Works (e.g. Sewer Maintenance Section), the employer may assign that number of workers needed to complete or initially establish the section. (If the employer creates any additional sections in the future, the employer and union will negotiate transfer rights of employees between the new section(s) and existing sections.) Once an employee is assigned a position within either the Street or Sewer Maintenance Sections, he or she shall remain there until an opening is created in the other section at which time the employee has the option of bidding (based on seniority) a transfer to the section with the opening. New employees shall be assigned to the section where an opening exists after more senior employees’ first exercise their right to accept or reject the transfer. If an employee bids and accepts transfer to the Water Services, Street Maintenance or Sewer Maintenance Sections from another section he/she shall start to accrue seniority beginning with the first day of assignment to the new section. (However, such employee shall retain his or her Division seniority rights for layoffs, vacation leave and longevity pay.) Overtime will be assigned within the respective Water Services, Street Maintenance, Sewer Maintenance and Vehicle Maintenance Sections based on agreed seniority lists within each of the individual sections.

Nothing in this article shall prevent the assignment of employees for training purposes between Street and Sewer Sections, including (but not limited to) training on the “television truck”, “vac truck” and street sweeper.

In case of disputes concerning Division seniority, the employer’s records shall govern this measurement. In the event Division seniority is the same, the senior employee shall be determined alphabetically by the last name of the employee. Temporary or part- time employees shall not accumulate nor exercise any Division seniority rights. Division seniority will be utilized in promotions and bidding as provided in Article 7 for the bargaining unit positions of Building Custodian/Messenger, General Maintenance Worker, Lab Sample Collector, and any other entry level position in existence or which is created.
