Frozen Seniority Sample Clauses

Frozen Seniority. In regard to transfers or promotions out of the bargaining unit, an employee who is transferred or promoted to a position under the employer not included in the bargaining unit shall be given a trial period of up to sixty (60) work days, during which time he shall be entitled to transfer back to his former job and location. His seniority will continue to accumulate during this time, and a substitute employee may be utilized to fill the vacated position during the trial period. In the event the employee remains on his new job beyond the trial period, his accumulated seniority on his former job will be frozen as of the date of completion of his trial period. If the employee is allowed to re-enter the bargaining unit by applying for and being granted a position by management, his frozen seniority will be reinstated.

Frozen Seniority. Seniority will not accrue when an employee accepts a temporary position / acting assignment outside of the bargaining unit. Seniority accumulated as at the date of transfer to the temporary position will be retained and reactivated upon the employee's return to the bargaining unit provided the employee has not been in a non-bargaining unit position for a period greater than twenty-four months and provided s/he continues to pay dues to the CUPE 503 during his/her tenure outside of the bargaining unit.
