Lay-off Procedure A permanent employee subject to lay off will be placed using the following procedures in the order set out below:
a) An employee will first be offered any available permanent vacancy for which the employee has the required qualifications. The employee will have a maximum of five (5) working days to accept or reject such vacancy. If the employee accepts the vacancy and the hourly rate is lower in that vacant position, the employee's hourly rate will be maintained while the employee remains in that vacant position for a period of one (1) calendar year.
b) If there are no vacancies available for which the employee has the required qualifications, or if available, the employee does not accept the vacancy and the Employer transfers or demotes the employee pursuant to Clause 10.05, the employee's hourly rate of pay will be maintained so long as the employee remains in the position to which the employee was transferred or demoted. The employee will not receive any further negotiated wage increases until the hourly rate of pay of the new position equals or surpasses the hourly rate of pay of their previous position.
c) If there are no vacancies for which the employee has the required qualifications, or if available, the employee does not accept the vacancy and the Employer does not exercise its right under Clause 10.05, the employee may select a permanent position held by a less senior employee on the seniority list if they have the required qualifications.
d) This process will continue in order of seniority until each permanent employee subject to lay off obtains a position for which they are qualified or it is determined there are no positions available for which the employee is qualified. If the employee does not select a position for which they are qualified, the employee shall be laid off.
e) If the employee is not placed through the above procedures, the employee shall be laid off pursuant to Clause 10.03.
f) Permanent full-time employees and permanent part-time employees will be restricted to positions under a), b), c), and d) on their respective seniority lists.
g) If an employee is placed through any of the above procedures, the posting provisions under Clause 08.01 will not apply.
h) Temporary employees in the same work area and who spend the majority of their time performing the same work as the employee subject to lay off will be terminated before the permanent employee is laid off.
i) The procedures set out above in a) through h) shall be completed within twenty
LAY-OFF & RECALL Section 1. Whenever it is determined that a layoff is reasonably necessary, the following procedures will apply.
Section 2. All bargaining unit employees in an initial probationary period working in positions affected by the layoff will be assigned to other appropriate positions if available, or, if no other positions are available, shall be laid off prior to displacing any full-time regular employees.
Section 3. Staffing in the event that economic conditions require the layoff of full-time personnel, it is agreed as follows:
a. No layoff shall reduce full-time personnel below three (3) employees working 24/48 schedules.
b. If the City desires to reduce the employee's below three (3), the City must be declared in fiscal emergency by the auditor of state and reopen the contract to negotiate such changes, subject to fact-finding and conciliation if the parties are unable to agree.
Section 4. When it is determined by the Employer that regular full-time employees must be laid off, the employees affected will be laid off within six (6) months and according to lowest seniority and lowest EMS certification level first, provided that the employee(s) retained have the immediate skill and ability to perform the jobs to which they will be assigned. ‘
Section 5. No new bargaining unit employees shall be hired until all employees who have been laid off with recall rights have been given the opportunity to return to work. Laid-off employees will be notified by registered mail at their last known address to return to work within fourteen (14) calendar days of the date of notification. Failure to report within the time limit will remove them from the recall list.
Section 6. Employees will retain their seniority for a period of twenty-four (24) months or the amount of their accrued seniority whichever is shorter and may be reinstated during this period. Employees will be recalled in reverse order of their layoff subject to their skill and ability to perform the job to which they are recalled.
Section 7. Upon layoff, an employee shall be paid for accrued but unused vacation and compensatory time. Such payment shall be included with the employee's last regular paycheck.
Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Xxxx has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Xxxx. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Xxxx (e.g. hairpinning):
1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises.
2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated.
3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch.
4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch).
2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases.
2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Xxxx, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Xxxx will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
Unbundled Channelization (Multiplexing) 5.7.1 To the extent NewPhone is purchasing DS1 or DS3 or STS-1 Dedicated Transport pursuant to this Agreement, Unbundled Channelization (UC) provides the optional multiplexing capability that will allow a DS1 (1.544 Mbps) or DS3 (44.736 Mbps) or STS-1 (51.84 Mbps) Network Elements to be multiplexed or channelized at a BellSouth central office. Channelization can be accomplished through the use of a multiplexer or a digital cross-connect system at the discretion of BellSouth. Once UC has been installed, NewPhone may request channel activation on a channelized facility and BellSouth shall connect the requested facilities via COCIs. The COCI must be compatible with the lower capacity facility and ordered with the lower capacity facility. This service is available as defined in NECA 4.

5.7.2.1 DS1 Channelization System: channelizes a DS1 signal into a maximum of twenty- four (24)

The denial of an extension shall not be made in an arbitrary manner.
16.13 In the event a job opening occurs in a lower rated classification, the most senior employee on lay off will be recalled and given the option of accepting the job or not, provided he has the ability and qualifications, as determined by the Employer, to perform the work in question.

In addition, the parties will look to identify and implement all reasonable alternatives to the proposed lay-off Note: Where a proposed lay-off results in the subsequent displacement of any member(s) of the bargaining unit, the original notice to the union provided in (a) above shall be considered notice to the union of any subsequent lay-off.
