Furlough Status Clause Samples
The Furlough Status clause defines the terms under which an employee may be placed on temporary unpaid leave, typically due to business needs or external circumstances such as economic downturns. It outlines the conditions that trigger furlough, the duration of the leave, and the impact on employee benefits and job status during the furlough period. This clause ensures both parties understand the implications of a furlough, providing clarity and legal structure to what could otherwise be an uncertain employment situation.

Such instruction, at prorated pay, will first be offered to the furloughed faculty members in the seated discipline in order of seniority and then to any other furloughed faculty in order of seniority at the College, who are qualified to provide this instruction in the judgment of the Vice President for Instruction as per 11.5(a) (f) During the furlough period the College may offer between 24.5 and 36 load units annually of instruction in the seated discipline of the furloughed faculty members provided such load is first offered to the furloughed faculty members in the seated discipline in order of seniority and then any other furloughed faculty, in order of seniority at the College who are qualified to provide this instruction in the judgment of the Vice President for Instruction as per 11.5(a) at prorated pay with the insurance benefits of full-time faculty members as provided in 9.4.
Furlough Status a. The President will offer furlough status to eligible faculty members in writing (see “1. (b)”). "Furlough Status" shall mean that the faculty member may be re-employed without a search as provided in “2. (d)” below. Should the faculty member not accept furlough status in writing within thirty (30) calendar days of the written offer, the University will have no further employment obligation.
Furlough Status. Should reduced enrollment, resulting in loss of funding, lack of program enrollment or financial emergencies require reduction of tenured teacher position(s), the teacher(s) shall be placed on furlough status based on criteria in Section 1, until such time as a vacancy occurs or the District reestablishes the position. For purposes of this article, furlough status is defined as a period of time, not to exceed two years, during which a teacher is not on active duty with the District and is not receiving compensation from the District. However, during which time, service credits for retirement purposes will continue to accumulate and will be reinstated in full if the teacher is returned to duty at which time the District will pay its normal share of retirement contribution; provided that, no additional retirement contribution will be made if the furloughed teacher has been enrolled in the Teachers' Retirement System during the furlough period. Teachers on furlough status will be returned to duty upon the Board's decision to fill a teaching vacancy or reinstate an eliminated position in the reverse order in which they were furloughed provided no teacher shall be assigned or returned to a position for which he/she is not qualified on the basis of training and experience. Staff on furlough status will be responsible for keeping the District informed of contact information.
Furlough Status. Employees are not entitled to receive any City paid benefits or accrue leave time during their furlough (non-working) status. A furlough is not considered a leave of absence or a layoff.
