Layoff Sample Clauses
Layoff. An Appointing Authority may layoff a teacher by reason of abolition of the position, shortage of work or funds, or other reasons outside the teacher’s control which do not reflect discredit on the service of the teacher.
A. For a full-time, unlimited teacher, a layoff occurs when their hours of work are reduced for a period longer than ten (10) consecutive working days. In addition any reduction in hours of a part-time, unlimited teacher, except for intermittents, which would place the teacher outside the bargaining unit shall constitute a layoff.
B. If the Appointing Authority determines that a layoff is to occur, the Appointing Authority will make every effort to execute the layoff date in a timely manner that would allow the teacher to seek employment in another educational system.
C. In the event of layoff, the Appointing Authority at the seniority unit shall determine the subject area(s) and employment condition(s) (i.e., full-time unlimited, part-time unlimited, intermittent, seasonal full-time, seasonal part-time) in which reduction is to be made.
D. The least senior teacher assigned to the affected subject matter area, seniority unit and employment condition shall be given notice of layoff. The Appointing Authority shall provide written notice to the teacher and the designated Association representative at least thirty (30) working days, whenever practicable, but at least twenty-one (21) days prior to the effective date of the layoff. The notice shall state the reason for layoff, the effective date of layoff, and the estimated length of the layoff period.
E. A teacher notified of layoff may bump another, less senior teacher in the same seniority unit in the following order:
1. If the teacher has seniority in other subject area(s), they may bump (displace) the least senior teacher with the same employment condition who is assigned to a subject area in which the bumping teacher has seniority. If this option is not available, then the teacher may proceed to #2.
2. If the teacher has seniority in the same or other subject area(s), they may bump (displace) the least senior teacher with a different employment condition who is assigned to a subject area in which the bumping teacher has seniority.

Layoff. Xxxxxx is defined as the termination of tenured faculty members for programmatic or financial reasons. Within 30 calendar days from the faculty member's written notice of layoff, the Xxxx shall submit a layoff plan to the local Union. The Union shall have 30 calendar days to review and comment upon the plan, during which time its representatives may meet with the Xxxx at a mutually-agreed upon time and place. The Xxxx may revise the plan after the period of comment is over and shall forward the plan first to the President or designee and then to the Board of Regents for adoption, amendment or rejection. The decision of the Employer to implement layoff is not grievable. Within an instructional area layoff shall be in reverse order of seniority, unless differences exist in relative level of job performance. When an exception is necessary to assure the qualifications of the remaining faculty members meet the needs of the continuing programs, standards will be developed by an agreement of the college Union/Management committee containing the process and measurements used to determine relative job performance. No tenured faculty member shall be laid off if probationary faculty members are retained within the instructional area to teach courses the tenured faculty member is qualified and capable of teaching.

For two academic years from the date of layoff, a tenured faculty member retains the following rights:
a. The position of the laid-off faculty member shall not be filled unless the laid-off faculty member has been offered reinstatement at his previous tenure and seniority. The faculty member shall have 30 days in which to accept or decline. If the offer is declined, any further rights under this section are extinguished.
b. If the laid-off faculty member applies for an open position within the bargaining unit at any College covered by this agreement, and the position is subsequently filled by the Employer, the laid-off faculty member shall be hired into the position provided the laid-off employee's qualifications for the job in question are substantially equal or above those of other applicants. If hired pursuant to this subsection, the previously laid-off faculty member shall not retain tenure except by mutual agreement betwe...

Whenever a bargaining unit employee is laid off, the order of layoff within the classification shall be determined by seniority. Seniority shall be defined as the length of service which a permanent classified employee has served in a classification plus higher classes. Length of service for purposes of this article shall begin on the employee’s first day of paid status in a classification. The following shall be subtracted from length of service:
(a) Any break in service. The time period that a less than 12 month employee is not scheduled to work does not constitute a break in service.
(b) Any leave set forth in Section 7.9.
(c) Any unpaid personal leave of absence under Section 7.10, except that any unpaid period that is less than a work day shall not be subtracted.
(d) Any leave set forth in Section 7.11.
(e) Any unpaid suspension. Any seniority list approved by the Personnel Commission prior to the approval of this Agreement shall not be recalculated based on the above provisions.

The employee with the least seniority in the classification in which an employee is bumping into shall be bumped first.

Layoff. (a) When a reduction in force in any line of progression is necessary, probationary employees will be laid off first. In case it is necessary to further reduce the number of employees in a line of progression, employees who are the lowest on the seniority list may:
(1) Starting with the job classification in which the reduction is to be made, the employees with the least plant seniority shall be removed therefrom. They shall have the right to exercise their seniority in lower job classifications for which they are qualified in that line of progression. This process shall be continued until the number of employees to be reduced in the line of progression has been reclassified to the entrance job.
(2) An employee who is to be displaced from an entrance job in a line of progression shall have a maximum of three (3) working days from date of being notified to exercise his plant seniority, provided he is qualified for the job involved, by transferring to an entrance job in another line of progression, if such entrance job is held by an employee having less plant seniority, or electing to be laid off. "Entrance Jobs" are defined as follows: Control Technician-Junior Equipment Operator-Junior Performance & Industrial Hygiene Technician-Junior Stores Attendant-Junior
(3) After the transfers resulting from the exercise of the foregoing rights have been accomplished in all lines of progression in which such action is taken, the excess employees remaining from all lines of progression shall be laid off in accordance with their plant seniority.
(4) As soon as practicable after the Company has identified with certainty those employees to be laid off under this Section 9, the Company will begin to consider each such employee for placement elsewhere. This consideration will continue until any one of the following occurs: (1) the employee is placed at the Xxxxxxxx Plant or elsewhere; (2) the employee is no longer retaining seniority rights under Section 10 below; (3) the employee is recalled under Section 11 below; or (4) the Company ceases to have a current address for the employee. The effective date of an employee's layoff shall not be delayed as a result of the failure of the Company to begin consideration of the employee for a placement elsewhere prior to such date.
Layoff. The involuntary termination from a class of a permanent or probationary employee without fault on the part of the employee, because of lack of work, lack of funds, or in the interest of economy.
