Bumping The employee scheduled for layoff under Section D. may elect to either accept layoff or bump in accordance with the process outlined in this Section. An employee scheduled for layoff who fails or is unable, in accordance with Section D.3., to exercise the option to bump to the least senior position shall be laid off. Within seven calendar days of receipt of notification of layoff, the employee scheduled for layoff shall notify the Employer of his/her decision to either accept layoff or bump within his/her current class series, as listed below. Alternatively, an employee may bump into the least senior position in the layoff unit in a former class series at or below any level at which the employee had satisfactorily completed the required probationary period. This alternative shall not apply to employees who were demoted from the higher paying class for disciplinary reasons or who transferred from the higher paying classification in less than satisfactory employment status. An employee seeking to bump into another position must meet all requirements in accordance with Section D.3. As a result of bumping, an employee shall not earn more than the maximum rate of the lower classification bumped into or more than the rate previously earned in a higher classification from which the employee bumped. When an employee bumps downward, he/she shall be paid at that step in the lower level pay range which credits the service in the higher level range(s) to the step at which the employee was paid when promoted from a lower level.

Placement into these positions shall be in seniority order based on preferences provided by the employees. 3. Employees remaining in the layoff unit may request an exchange transfer (one for one transfer) with any bargaining unit member in the same classification in accordance with Article 15 Part D §A.6., either within or outside the layoff unit. Exchange transfers shall not be unreasonably denied and will be processed with the rest of the layoff unit moves, if possible. In addition, during the bump process, exchange transfers occurring within this Article shall supersede all other closer to home and seniority based transfers or recalls, as no vacancy exists. Requests for exchange transfers shall be in writing by both employees requesting to exchange. 4. The parties may reach mutual agreement to modify the process to minimize impact on affected employees as necessary.
