Hireback Procedure Sample Clauses

Hireback Procedure. Prior to the end of each 24-hour shift, the most senior employee or his designee working on the shift shall provide the Battalion Chief or his designee for the oncoming shift with a list of firefighters, firefighters/paramedics, and lieutenants who are available for hireback. If the Village determines that it is necessary to hire back in any classification, employees shall be hired back by classification in the order in which they appear on the list provided to the Battalion Chief or his designee. No lieutenant will be bypassed in hireback situations where a fire fighter has been assigned to serve in an acting capacity as a lieutenant unless the position the Village is seeking to fill through the hireback requires paramedic certification. The Village shall not be obligated to any employee who the Battalion Chief, or his designee, was unable to contact and in such situations the Battalion Chief, or his designee, shall have the right to contact the next person on the list. The Village retains the right to hire back additional employees in any classification after the Battalion Chief, or his designee, has contacted or attempted to contact all of the employees in the applicable classification on the list. If no list is provided to the oncoming Battalion Chief, the Village has the right to hire back employees in any order that the Village considers appropriate.
