LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. (a) Employees will be laid off in reverse order of seniority whenever there is a reduction of employees in the bargaining unit. The only exception to this provision is when the client requests in writing that a specific security guard be retained at their site. Guards can bump due to (1) loss of site, (2) being bumped by a senior guard, (3) client removal for non-disciplinary reasons, (4) return from approved leave of absence or (5) loss of position on a site.
(b) The Company shall notify employees whose position is to be eliminated due to the loss of work at a specific site or the loss of the entire site at least five (5) working days prior to the effective date of termination of the position. Such employee will be entitled to bump junior employees at other sites in order to maintain employment and status. The company will meet with the affected employee and their Union representative as quickly as possible after notification in order to allow the employee to review options and make an informed decision where they wish to bump into. The parties will attempt to place the security guard into an alternate site where said guard will not lose any days of pay, but in no event, will the placement, or bumping take more than five (5) working days (no more than five (5) unpaid days). If an employee is not slotted into their new position within said five (5) working days, the company will provide payment in lieu of work. During the up to five (5) days waiting period, the employee will be entitled to be on top of the spare board list if they so desire.
(c) The Company shall generally give notice of recall by registered mail to the last recorded address of the employee. The employee shall keep the Company informed of the employee's present address of location where he may be reached. The employee who fails to do so shall forfeit his right of recall.
(d) If, within one (1) calendar day from the receipt of such notice, the employee accepts the recall, the job will be held open for one (1) calendar day from the day of the employee's acceptance. In the event that such recalled employee is employed elsewhere at the time of recall, the Company will hold the position vacant for two (2) weeks if the Company has received appropriate advance notice from its client.
(e) In circumstances where the Company must fill vacant positions without delay, the Company shall give notice of recall by telephone until able to find a qualified employee who is prepared to report to work immediat...
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. A. If the Board desires to reduce the number of teachers, the following procedures shall be used:
1. Voluntary layoffs will be accepted by the Board, provided that the remaining teachers are certified and qualified to fill the available positions.
2. If further reductions are necessary, then teachers, beginning with the least senior teachers, shall next be laid off, provided that the remaining teachers are certified and qualified to fill the available positions, and provided further that probationary teachers shall be laid off before teachers who have attained tenure status. If is understood that any layoff shall suspend for the duration of the layoff the Board's obligation to pay salary or fringe benefits under any individual contract of employment or under this Agreement; however, a teacher shall be eligible to receive salary or fringe benefits which were earned but not yet paid prior to layoff. No new teachers shall be employed by the Board while there are bargaining unit teachers on layoff unless there are no laid-off teachers who are certified and qualified to fill the available opening(s). The Board shall notify and meet with the Association president at least ten (10) calendar days before the notification of layoffs will occur. Seniority and qualifications to be considered in layoff decisions will be based on information on file with the personnel office. Teachers are responsible to keep personnel information current and updated. Employees, potentially to be laid off, shall receive notice by December 15th, exclusive of the ten (10) day notice to the Association, if such layoff is scheduled to take effect at the end of the first semester or not later than June 1st if such layoff is to take effect at the opening of the ensuing school year, except in the case of unforeseen circumstances.
B. Recalls of teachers on layoff shall be subject to the following procedures:
1. Teachers on layoff shall be recalled in inverse order of layoff, provided that such teachers are certified and qualified for the positions to be filled.
2. The Board shall give written notice of recall from layoff by sending a certified letter, return receipt requested, to the teacher at the teacher's last known address.

LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. During layoffs or reductions in the working force, the employee with the least seniority in the job classification affected shall be laid off first. When the working force is again increased, employees on layoff shall be recalled in the order of their job classification seniority, unless circumstances have occurred during the layoff which make them disqualified. Ability to perform the work available shall be a determining factor in following the principle that the last employee laid off will be the first employee rehired.
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. 12.01 When, in the opinion of the Employer, a reduction of the workforce is necessary, probationary employees and students shall be laid off first. If further reductions are necessary the Employer shall be guided by the following considerations (not necessarily in this order):

c. The ability of the employee;
d. Willingness to travel of the employee.

10.06 When recalling Employees after lay-off, they shall be recalled by reverse order of seniority provided that they have the skills and ability to perform the job available. Bargaining unit jobs may be posted during a layoff only if employees with the appropriate level of skills and ability are not available.

Therefore, in the event of a layoff, employees shall be laid off in reverse order of seniority.

No new employees will be hired until those laid off have been given an opportunity of re-employment, provided they are capable of performing the work.
