Common use of Involuntary Transfer to Substitute Status Clause in Contracts

Involuntary Transfer to Substitute Status. 1. If it is determined that the District has "surplus" employees and an employee must be transferred to serve as a substitute, the District shall solicit volunteers from among employees throughout the District at the level (elementary, intermediate, or secondary) in which the surplus exists. In determining the qualifications of a volunteer for the proposed transfer, the District shall consider the appropriate factors enumerated in Section F.3 of this Article. 2. If after requesting and considering volunteer(s), the District determines that it is necessary to transfer an employee involuntarily to substitute status, the employee in the affected level with the least seniority will be transferred, unless there is a reasonable, education-related reason for bypassing the employee or unless the proposed transfer will necessitate the transfer or reassignment of more than one employee besides the least senior employee.
