• 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.

• Recall from Layoff Full-time and regular part-time nurses shall be recalled in the order of seniority unless otherwise agreed between the Hospital and the local Union, subject to the following provisions, provided that a nurse recalled is qualified to perform the available work: (a) Full-time and regular part-time nurses on layoff may notify the Hospital of their interest in accepting occasional vacancies and/or temporary vacancies which may arise and for which they are qualified. Such notification of interest shall state any restrictions on the type of assignment which a nurse is willing to accept, and shall remain valid for six weeks. However if a nurse declines an occasional or temporary vacancy the Hospital shall not be obliged to call upon the nurse again during the balance of such six-week period. (b) For the purposes of this article, an "occasional vacancy" shall mean an assignment which is anticipated not to exceed five shifts (37.5 hours). Occasional vacancies shall be offered first to regular part-time nurses on layoff who have expressed interest, and if no such part-time nurse accepts then to full-time nurses on layoff who have expressed interest, and if no such full-time nurse accepts then to casual part-time nurses. (c) For the purposes of this article, a "temporary vacancy" shall mean an assignment which is anticipated to exceed five shifts (37.5 hours). Temporary vacancies which arise in the full-time bargaining unit shall be offered by seniority first to full-time nurses on layoff who have expressed interest, and if no such full-time nurse accepts then by seniority to regular part-time nurses on layoff who have expressed interest, and if no such part-time nurse accepts then to casual part-time nurses. Temporary vacancies which arise in the part-time unit shall be offered by seniority first to regular part-time nurses on layoff who have expressed interest, and if no such part-time nurse accepts then by seniority to full-time nurses on layoff who have expressed interest, and if no such full-time nurse accepts then to casual part-time nurses. (d) A nurse to whom an occasional or temporary vacancy is offered may accept or decline such vacancy and in either case shall maintain her or his position on the recall list. The acceptance of a temporary vacancy that is anticipated to exceed sixty (60) calendar days shall be considered a recall from layoff for purposes of Article 10.06(c). No new notice of layoff will be required and the nurse will be deemed to be laid off at the conclusion of the temporary vacancy. A full-time nurse on layoff who accepts a temporary full-time vacancy within thirty (30) days of the effective day of layoff will continue to receive benefit coverage for the duration of the temporary vacancy. A full-time nurse who has worked for more than 600 hours in 140 calendar days as the result of accepting one or more temporary vacancies shall thereafter be eligible for benefit coverage as a full-time nurse and shall be paid accordingly, and shall continue to receive benefit coverage so long as she or he continues to fill a temporary vacancy and such full-time employee shall accrue seniority in the manner prescribed for full-time employees throughout the period of employment. Otherwise, a full-time employee who accepts a temporary or occasional vacancy shall be paid her or his regular full-time rate of pay together with a percentage payment in lieu of benefits at the rate specified for part-time nurses. A full-time employee who accepts a temporary part-time vacancy or occasional vacancies as provided herein will accrue seniority throughout the period of such employment in the manner prescribed for part-time nurses. A part-time employee who accepts a temporary or occasional vacancy will accrue seniority throughout the period of such employment in the manner prescribed for part-time nurses.
