Filling Temporary Vacancies. A. The Employer has the option, but is not required, to post a temporary vacancy that is expected to be less than thirty (30) calendar days in length. A temporary vacancy that is expected to be thirty (30) calendar days or longer shall be posted. The posting shall indicate that the vacancy is temporary, and the expected duration of the vacancy.
B. A temporary vacancy that is posted shall be filled by the most senior applicant who, in the opinion of the Director of Transportation, is qualified and capable of adequately performing the assignment. An employee shall be deemed to be “qualified and capable of adequately performing the assignment” for an assignment in the same classification as the employee’s current assignment. [Example: A bus driver will be deemed to be qualified and capable of adequately performing the assignment for all driving positions.] A temporary vacancy that is not required to be posted shall be filled at the Employer’s discretion.
C. If no bargaining unit member bids on a posted temporary vacancy, the temporary vacancy shall be offered to a person on layoff within that classification who is qualified to perform the duties of the temporary position in accordance with the recall provisions in this Agreement. Pay shall be at the lowest step on the salary schedule for that classification.
D. If no bargaining unit member bids on a posted temporary vacancy, and there are no laid off employees who accept the temporary assignment, the vacancy may then be filled through temporary transfers or employment of substitutes or outside temporary workers at the Employer’s discretion.
E. If a bargaining unit member bids on and is assigned to a temporary vacancy, the regular permanent position of that bus driver may be filled through temporary transfer or employment of substitutes or outside temporary workers at the Employer’s discretion, until the conclusion of the temporary assignment, when the driver shall return to his/her regular permanent assignment.
