Inverse Seniority. Upon request of the Local Union, the parties shall enter into an agreement applying the concept of inverse seniority where: (1) the layoff is for a definite time and limited duration, and (2) all employees with less than one year's seniority have been laid off from the affected group referred to below. The Union agrees that any such local agreement shall give full consideration to and shall not impair plant operating efficiencies, including, but not limited to, those inefficiencies which might occur as a consequence of undesirable bumping or replacement of employees. Consistent with this requirement, it is further agreed that employees shall be laid off and recalled under the terms of this inverse seniority layoff procedure by groups (defined by classification and department) to be negotiated by the parties. It is expressly understood that the parties shall not enter into arrangements which permit employees on inverse seniority layoff to return to work to be replaced on layoff by other employees during the period of limited layoff. Nor will an employee who is laid off pursuant to an inverse seniority arrangement be permitted to return to work as a result of exhaustion of, or disqualification from, State Unemployment Compensation Benefits or Company provided Supplemental Unemployment Benefits. Nothing in the foregoing shall preclude the Company from recalling any employee prior to the expiration of the limited layoff period. If the Union President believes that a particular layoff, which does not meet the above criteria, warrants the application of inverse seniority, it may make a request to that effect to the Local Union. The Local Union may take up any such requests which it believes to be meritorious with the Company.

Such canvass shall be conducted during normal business hours at the telephone number on the Company files for the affected employees. Any employee not reached through this canvass will be determined as having chosen to remain on layoff. A Committee person shall be present during an attempt to contact such an employee before this determination is made. If the laid off employee is contacted and decides he/she wishes to continue on layoff for the extended time, they will be so permitted. If such employee chooses to return, they will be so permitted and any layoffs then required will be conducted in the normal manner.
