Layoff in Lieu of Bumping An employee who elects a layoff in lieu of bumping maintains his/her reemployment rights under this Agreement.
Layoff Order Seasonal employees shall be seasonally laid off in inverse order of Classification Seniority (State Seniority for Units 4 and 6) within the employment condition, seniority unit and principal place of employment of the affected position(s) unless waived by mutual agreement between the employee and the Appointing Authority.
Layoff Recall A. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, if conditions warrant a layoff of personnel, the following procedure will be used: 1. In the event an employee must be laid off, layoff will be on the basis of seniority, certification, and qualifications. It is understood that the Association shall have the right to review the layoff list prior to notification of the individual to be laid off. 2. An employee in a position being reduced or eliminated shall have the right to be transferred to the full- time position held by the employee with the least seniority for which the more senior employee is certified and qualified. No part-time positions shall be created to retain a senior employee. 3. If the Board acts to lay off an employee, every effort will be made to notify the employee of that Board action within two (2) working days of the action. B. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, a laid off employee shall be recalled to the first vacancy for which he/she is certified and qualified and in reverse order of layoff. Changes in certification and qualifications after the effective date of an employee's layoff are only taken into consideration in recall to vacant positions. A laid-off employee will be recalled to a vacant position for which he/she is certified and qualified before consideration for transfer to an open position will be given to any currently employed, qualified applicant. It is the laid off employee’s responsibility to have on file with the District a current certificate (including any additions or revisions to the certificate) as well as a current statement of any qualifications upon which recall decisions may be based. C. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, an employee’s right to recall shall only extend for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of his/her layoff. D. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, a laid off employee may continue his/her health, dental and life insurance benefits by paying monthly the normal per-subscriber group premium for such benefits to the Board, subject to conditions of existing policies provided such continuation does not affect the group rate. E. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, during a period of impending layoffs in this District, the Board may grant requests for voluntary leaves of absence if the Board deems it economically sound to approve such requests and a satisfactory replacement can be employed. F. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, notification of recall shall be in writing with a copy to the Association President. The notification shall be sent by certified mail to the employee’s last known address. It shall be the responsibility of each employee to notify the Board of any change in address.
Layoff List A list of all ASF Members laid-off within the prior three (3) year period shall be maintained by the System office. The list shall indicate if an individual has recall rights. The Association President shall be provided a copy of the list, and notified promptly of changes.
Signaling Link Transport 9.2.1 Signaling Link Transport is a set of two or four dedicated 56 kbps transmission paths between Global Connection-designated Signaling Points of Interconnection that provide appropriate physical diversity.
Seniority Unit Layoff List Selection shall next be made from the Seniority Unit Layoff List unless the vacancy is being filled by an employee with more classification seniority who has received notice of permanent layoff.
Trunk Group Connections and Ordering 5.2.1 For both One-Way and Two-Way Interconnection Trunks, if Onvoy wishes to use a technically feasible interface other than a DS1 or a DS3 facility at the POI, the Parties shall negotiate reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.2 When One-Way or Two-Way Interconnection Trunks are provisioned using a DS3 interface facility, if Onvoy orders the multiplexed DS3 facilities to a Frontier Central Office that is not designated in the NECA 4 Tariff as the appropriate Intermediate Hub location (i.e., the Intermediate Hub location in the appropriate Tandem subtending area based on the LERG), and the provision of such facilities to the subject Central Office is technically feasible, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.3 Each Party will identify its Carrier Identification Code, a three or four digit numeric code obtained from Telcordia, to the other Party when ordering a trunk group. 5.2.4 For multi-frequency (MF) signaling each Party will out pulse ten (10) digits to the other Party, unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise. 5.2.5 Each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to monitor trunk groups under its control and to augment those groups using generally accepted trunk- engineering standards so as to not exceed blocking objectives. Each Party agrees to use modular trunk-engineering techniques for trunks subject to this Attachment.
Layoff and Recall Section 19.1 Reasons, Notice When the Employer determines, because of lack of work, lack of funds, reorganization, or a job abolishment that is to last more than one (1) year, a layoff is necessary, the Employer shall notify the affected employees twenty-one (21) calendar days in advance of the effective date of the layoff or job abolishment. It is understood and agreed that no provisions of Civil Service Law or rules shall apply to layoffs. Section 19.2 Classifications The Employer shall determine in which classification(s) layoffs will occur. Within each classification affected, employees will be laid off in accordance with their classification seniority for the classifications affected by the layoff. The employee(s) with the least classification seniority as defined in Article 20 will be laid off first. Bumping or displacement will also occur in accordance with the employee’s seniority with the least senior employee, as defined by Article 20, laid off first. Section 19.3 Recall List Employees who are laid off shall be placed on a recall list for a period of eighteen (18) months. If there is a recall, employees who are still on the recall list shall be recalled, in the inverse order of their layoff. Notice of recall shall be sent to the employees by certified or registered mail. The Employer shall be deemed to have fulfilled its obligation by mailing the recall notice by registered mail, return receipt requested, to the last mailing address provided by the employee. Employees shall be responsible for keeping the Office notified, in writing, of any changes in his address. The recalled employee shall have seven (7) calendar days following the receipt of the recall notice to notify the Employer of his intention to return to work and shall have fourteen (14) calendar days following the receipt of the recall notice in which to report for duty, unless a different date for returning to work is otherwise specified in the notice. If the employee does not respond within seven (7) calendar days the employee shall be removed from the recall list. If, upon recall, an employee must receive additional training, the Employer shall provide and pay for the training required to maintain his certification. The employee shall be required to complete the training in a timely fashion established by the Employer. If the employee fails to complete the training, the employee may be removed without recourse to the grievance procedure or the State Personnel Board of Review. Section 19.4 Bumping Bumping rights will be extended to the employee under this Agreement. Employees may bump or displace employees in other classifications so long as the employee previously worked in the classification or assignment and displaces an employee with less seniority. Employees from other bargaining units not covered by this Agreement, and other employees of the Sheriff’s Office who previously worked in a classification covered by this Agreement, may displace into positions covered by this Agreement so long as the employee displaced has less classification seniority. The employee displaced will be the one with the least seniority. Employees seeking to displace less senior employees will displace to the most recently held classification, and the next most recent, etc. until the employee is able to displace a less senior employee. If no employee in a previously-held classification has less seniority, then the employee seeking to displace shall be laid off. Employees displaced shall be placed on the recall list. An employee who is displaced may take a voluntary layoff, when layoffs occur rather than displace to a lower classification.
Layoff A layoff is defined as any mandatory, permanent or prolonged reduction in the number of full-time or part-time nurses employed by the Medical Center. A layoff may also occur if there is a mandatory reduction in scheduled hours or change of shift. Where skill, competence, ability and experience are substantially equal in the opinion of the Employer, seniority shall be the determining factor when utilizing this layoff procedure. The Employer will give the Association, the local unit chairperson and the affected full-time and part-time nurses at least thirty (30) calendar days’ advance written notice of a layoff or pay in lieu thereof, based on scheduled hours missed. As soon as practical thereafter, the Employer will provide the Association with a roster listing all bargaining unit nurses, their seniority, unit, shift and hours worked per pay period. Upon request, the parties will meet for the purpose of reviewing the procedure to be utilized and the order of layoff. If the Employer determines a layoff to be necessary, the following procedures shall be followed: 6.2.1 The Employer shall identify the unit(s), shift(s) and number of FTEs which will be subject to layoff. The position(s) of the least senior nurse(s) on the unit and shift to be eliminated to accomplish the required FTE reduction on that unit and shift will be identified. Those nurses whose positions have been eliminated shall be considered “displaced nurses”. The Local Unit Chairperson or designee, if available, shall be present when displaced nurses are given their bumping options. The Local Unit Chairperson or designee’s time off shall not be paid. 6.2.2 Displaced nurses, by seniority, shall have the following options: a. A displaced nurse wishing to remain on his/her unit may bump into the position of either the least senior full-time or the least senior part-time nurse on the nurse’s unit; or
SENIORITY, LAYOFF AND RECALL A. “University seniority” is the employee’s length of continuous service with the University from the employee’s most recent date of hire into a Bargaining Unit position. This date will be considered the date that the employee begins active pay status in a Bargaining Unit position. B. An employee’s seniority shall terminate: 1. If the employee quits. 2. If the employee retires. 3. If the employee is discharged. 4. If the employee who has completed the new hire probationary period fails to report to work as scheduled or fails to report after any authorized absence or layoff, the employee may be terminated effective on the 7th day following the date of mailing a letter from the University advising the employee that they may be terminated if the employee does not advise the University of the employee’s intention to report to work as scheduled. The letter shall be mailed via certified and regular U.S. Mail. 5. When an employee is assigned out of the Bargaining Unit the following provisions will apply: a. If an employee is given a promotion out of the Bargaining Unit, and the employee is later found not to have met the posted qualifications, the employee may be returned to the employee’s prior position without a loss of seniority at any time during the employee’s probationary period. b. If an employee leaves the Bargaining Unit to take a non-Bargaining Unit position and returns to the Bargaining Unit for reasons other than those set forth above during the employee’s probationary period, the employee shall be credited with the employee’s prior seniority and Bargaining Unit rights but shall not be credited with seniority for service outside the Bargaining Unit. c. Except for laid-off employees who are awarded a non-Bargaining Unit position, once an employee has completed the employee’s probation in a non-Bargaining Unit position, the employee relinquishes all forms of Bargaining Unit seniority and shall be treated as a new employee in the event the employee returns to the unit. d. Once a Bargaining Unit employee is promoted out of the Bargaining Unit, the employee does not retain any Bargaining Unit rights except those listed above (i.e., seniority rights). e. This Agreement does not abridge Management’s rights nor guarantee that the employee shall be returned to his or her prior position. C. Departments/segments for the purpose of this Article are defined in Article 16 - Classifications. D. The University will provide the Union with three (3) copies of a seniority list on March 1, and September 1, of each year showing the seniority of each employee in the Bargaining Unit by University Seniority. Any employee shall have ten (10) working days after the list is prepared and posted in the departments to question the employee’s position on that list. If no question is received within the time period, the list shall be deemed accurate for the remainder of the posting period; and if a question is received, the list will be reviewed and revised as appropriate. If two (2) or more employees have the same University Seniority date, their names shall be listed alphabetically last name first, first name last. E. The University will provide the Union with a bi-weekly list of new hires, terminations, promotions, lateral moves, leaves of absence, and retirements in the Bargaining Unit. The list will include the name of the employee and the date of the action. F. The University will continue its efforts to avoid layoffs and will discuss at least thirty (30) days prior to layoff any potential layoffs with the Union in a scheduled labor management meeting. However, the University and the Union recognize that due to lack of funds or lack of work, temporary and permanent layoffs may be required to effectively and efficiently operate the University. G. For seasonal layoffs the following provisions will apply: 1. The University will continue its efforts to minimize seasonal layoffs; but if there is a seasonal layoff of employees in Residential Dining Services, Xxxxx University Center Culinary Services, and/or Central Food Facility of less than 120 days, the provisions of this Article regarding layoffs are not applicable. H. Layoffs will take place according to seniority and in accordance with the specific provisions of this Article covering segments and/or specific classification series within each segment. The University retains the right to determine layoffs in a particular classification, departmental classification series, and/or segment, and the specifics of each layoff. I. The University will lay off the employee with the least University seniority in a classification in a segment’s classification series. (Classification series defined in Article 16 – Classifications.) J. An employee who is laid off will first have the right to displace another employee with less University Seniority in the same classification throughout the University. If there is no less senior employee within the classification, the employee may displace a less senior employee in any classification in which the employee has previously served, or an equivalent or lower classification that the employee is qualified to hold. If there is no other classification available, the employee may displace the full time employee with the least University seniority in the lowest classification University-wide who may then displace the part time employee with the least University seniority in the lowest classification University-wide. Part time employees may not bump full time employees but may bump less senior part time employees. After the exercise of a laid-off employee’s displacement rights, the employee shall not be considered to have further displacement rights until the employee would be subject to layoff again. Employees may choose layoff rather than exercise their displacement right. Such employees will not be considered to have waived their recall rights, nor negatively affect their employment rights. K. An employee’s displacement rights shall be subject to fulfillment of qualifications for the position. Qualifications shall be determined by a thirty-day probationary period if the employee has bumped into a classification in which the employee has not previously served. If the employee does not meet the qualifications of the position at the end of 30 days, the affected employee will be laid off with recall rights. L. Employees shall be notified of layoff in writing by the University at least fourteen (14) calendar days in advance of the layoff. Except for extraordinary circumstances such as acts of God or hospitalization, the employee shall have five (5) days after receipt of the fourteen (14) day notice, excluding weekends and holidays, to notify the University in writing of the employee’s intention to exercise the employee’s displacement rights and to notify the University in writing of the employee’s displacement selection. Failure to provide written notification of the employee’s intention/selection as specified above waives the employee’s displacement rights. M. Employees will be recalled to work in reverse order of the layoff procedure specified herein. Employees shall have recall and reinstatement rights for the period of time equal to the length of their Bargaining Unit seniority from the date of the layoff. However, after two years the affected employee, if interested, will have the obligation to monitor job availabilities by utilizing employment resources available through University Human Resources. An employee who is reinstated shall not serve a probationary period upon reinstatement except where the employee was a probationary employee and the probationary period shall begin anew. Notice of recall to an employee shall be made by hand delivery, or certified mail, or by other carrier using return receipt, to the last known address of such employee. A copy shall be forwarded to the Union. If undeliverable, the University’s obligation shall be considered to be fulfilled. The recalled employee must notify the University within three (3) working days of the date of receipt of notice of his/her intention to return to work. The date for returning to work shall be no less than seven (7) calendar days from date of notice received unless mutually agreed upon with the Union. Failure to return from layoff shall subject the employee to termination of service.
