LAYOFF/REDUCTION IN FORCE. 9.1 The Sheriff reserves the right to layoff bargaining unit employees for lack of work, lack of funds, or for any other reason necessary for the operation of the Sheriff’s Office as determined solely by the Sheriff. In the event of personnel reductions, bargaining unit employees shall be laid off in the inverse order of their hire date seniority. Bargaining unit employees may not be bumped or displaced by non- bargaining unit employees. 9.2 When a position is identified as being eliminated, the bargaining unit employee may then bump the bargaining unit employee within the same job classification with the least hire date seniority. If more than one bargaining unit employee is being eliminated, the bargaining unit employee with the most hire date seniority selects first from the identified least hire date seniority positions. 9.3 IUPA Supervisory bargaining unit employees may bump into a lower classification that is part of a job classification series as defined by the Bureau of Human Resources when a position is either vacant or held by a newly hired employee in his/her probationary period.
