Termination of Seniority An employee's seniority shall terminate:
A. If the employee resigns
B. If the employee retires
C. If the employee is discharged
D. If the employee is laid off for a period of more than twenty-four (24) consecutive months
E. If the employee who has completed his/her probationary period fails to report to work as scheduled after any authorized absence or layoff, he may be terminated effective on the 4th calendar day following the scheduled return to work date
Application of Seniority Seniority shall be the controlling factor in the following situations:
Accumulation of Seniority The seniority of an employee shall continue to accrue during an absence due to:
(a) accident or illness;
(b) maternity or parental leave;
(c) any unpaid leave of absence of up to twelve (12) months;
(d) any paid leave of absence provided for under this Agreement.
Unpaid Leave - Affecting Seniority and Benefits Any employee granted unpaid leave of absence totalling up to twenty (20) working days in any year shall continue to accumulate seniority and all benefits and shall return to her/his former job and increment step. If an unpaid leave of absence or an accumulation of unpaid leaves of absence exceeds twenty (20) working days in any year, the employee shall not accumulate benefits from the twenty-first (21st) day of the unpaid leave to the last day of the unpaid leave but shall accumulate benefits and receive credit for previously earned benefits upon expiration of the unpaid leave.
Posting of Seniority List The Administration shall post the seniority list twice annually by October 1 and March 1 of each work year. The seniority list shall be posted on the designated bulletin board in each building/work site and will indicate, by area of certification, license, or entry-level requirement, the first day worked, the date of Board resolution to hire, and the contract status (limited or continuing) of each employee. Said list shall be provided by the Superintendent to the Association President on or before the date of posting.
A. The name of employees on the seniority list shall appear in seniority rank order within areas of certification, license, or entry-level requirements, with the name of the most senior employee appearing at the top of the listing and the name of the least senior employee appearing at the bottom of the listing.
B. The names of employees who are certificated, licensed, or otherwise minimally qualified in more than one (1) area shall be included on the listing for all areas of certification, license, or entry-level requirement.
C. The names of part-time employees shall appear on the seniority list but shall be listed separately from the names of full-time employees.
Retention of Seniority (a) Any employee, other than a probationary employee, whose employment ceases through no fault of his own, shall retain seniority and shall be recalled on the following basis:
(i) An employee with less than one year's continuous service shall retain these rights for six (6) months from the date of lay-off.
(ii) An employee with one or more year's continuous service shall retain these rights for twelve (12) months from the date of lay-off, plus two (2) additional months for each year's service up to an additional twenty-four (24) months.
(b) Failure of the employee to report for work within one (1) week of notice by registered mail at their last address reported to and received by the mill shall result in his termination of employment with the Company. Bona fide reasons for failure to report shall not deprive an employee of his recall rights.
Loss of Seniority An employee shall lose all seniority and shall be deemed terminated if:
Definition of Seniority Seniority shall consist of the length of service from the date of hire. All seniority must be continuous and uninterrupted except as otherwise provided in this agreement. Bargaining unit seniority shall be defined as the amount of time an employee has accrued while represented by the Wausau Professional Police Association. Officers not represented by the bargaining unit shall be allowed to return to the bargaining unit with their full bargaining unit seniority, including length of service outside of the unit, if their return is caused by the elimination of their position.
Loss of Seniority and Employment A Nurse shall lose both Seniority and employment in the event that:
(a) The Nurse is discharged for just cause and is not reinstated.
(b) The Nurse resigns or retires from employment.
(c) After recall, the Nurse fails to notify the Employer as set out in lay off provisions unless such notice was not reasonably possible.
(d) The Nurse is laid-off for more than two (2) years, subject to lay off provisions.
(e) The Nurse is absent from work for three (3) consecutive scheduled shifts or more without sufficient cause or without notifying the Employer, unless such notice was not reasonably possible.
(f) A Nurse who retires from employment loses employment and Service, but if within six months of the retirement, the Nurse returns to work in any Bargaining Unit represented by the Nova Scotia Nurses’ Union, the Nurse will maintain the Seniority the Nurse had prior to retirement and may accumulate additional Seniority on either a Casual or Regular basis depending on the status of the appointment after retirement.
(g) The Nurse fails to return from an approved leave of absence, without notifying the Employer unless such notice was not reasonably possible or takes unauthorized employment while on an approved leave of absence.
Distributions on Account of Separation from Service If and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of the Executive’s employment shall be made unless and until the Executive incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.
