REDUCTION IN PERSONNEL All language in this article which is shown in italics is meant to apply to non-certified professionals, (see Article I Section A. for definition of this term). A. In the event of a general cutback or reduction of teaching staff through layoff from employment, the following procedures will be utilized. 1. Teachers not holding a valid Michigan teaching certificate will be laid off first, provided there are certified and qualified teachers to replace and perform all of the needed duties of the laid-off teacher. 2. If reduction is still necessary, then probationary teachers with the least number of continuous years of teaching in the Dexter School System will be laid off first, provided there are remaining certified and qualified teachers to replace and perform all of the needed duties of the laid-off teachers. 3. If further reduction is still necessary, then tenured teachers with the least number of years of continuous teaching experience in the Dexter School System will be laid off first, provided there are certified and qualified teachers to replace and perform all of the needed duties of the laid-off teachers. B. Certified teachers shall be defined as teachers who hold a valid Michigan teaching certificate. C. Qualified teachers shall be defined as teachers who possess a major or minor or have previous teaching experience in the District in the subject matter area to be taught. D. Length of service or seniority is defined as service in the Dexter School System as a member of the bargaining unit. Leaves of absence, with or without pay and absence due to layoff are not to be considered a break in service, but service time shall continue to accrue during periods of paid leave, or periods of layoff only. The first day worked shall commence accrual of service time. E. A seniority list shall be maintained by the District. Teachers shall be ranked in order of seniority. Accompanying the name of each teacher shall be a listing of the teacher's certification endorsement. Said seniority list shall be presented to the Association annually during the month of October for review. Corrections shall be brought to the attention of the administration within three (3) weeks after its presentation to the Association. Ranking of teachers with the same length of service shall be determined by a drawing each year. The Association and teachers so affected shall be notified in writing of the date, place and time of the drawing.

Posting and Filling of Vacancies 8.1(1) When a permanent vacancy occurs within a classification covered by this agreement, which the Employer intends to fill, after the Employer applies the internal job transfer bidding procedure and the ultimate vacancy is thereby identified, such vacancy shall be advertised for ten (10) calendar days provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Employer from advertising such vacancy throughout its system or outside during the ten (10) day period. Probationary employees may, at the sole discretion of the Employer, be considered for another position outside their classification after the signing date of this agreement. The Company reserves the sole and absolute right to carry out any applicable interviewing or testing that is necessary in its opinion. All test processes will be approved by qualified Human Resources staff. An employee will only be allowed to take one test failure for each different job classification bid every four (4) months. Current employees applying for positions which involve increased driving responsibilities must meet corporate driving standards and provide with application a current driving abstract. The opinion of the Employer shall not be exercised in an arbitrary or discriminatory manner. 8.1(2) Internal Job Transfer Bidding Procedure 8.1(3) This internal job transfer bidding procedure is within a given classification as follows: 8.1(4) All employees within each classification, when requested, must submit a “standing application” to transfer to any existing alternate home base or location, shift, shift hours, days off (in order of preference), to transfer from part-time to full-time status, or to indicate that they wish no change, whichever is applicable to each individual within their current classification. 8.1(5) A copy of such standing application submitted will be furnished to the employee. Since a standing application will remain valid indefinitely until it results in action or is replaced by the employee, it is the responsibility of the employee to ensure that a standing application always reflects the employee’s current preferences. 8.1(6) (i) When a permanent classification position vacancy is to be filled, all standing applications will immediately be reviewed with the intention of awarding transfers (including any “resultant” transfers) in order of classification seniority in the following sequence, where applicable: (a) transfer of a full-time employee from one home base or location to another or as referred to above; (b) transfer of an employee from part-time to full- time status; (c) transfer of part-time employees from one home base or location to another or as referred to above; and (d) transfer of full-time employees to part-time.
