Common use of Non-Renewal or Non-Promotion Clause in Contracts

Non-Renewal or Non-Promotion. In those cases where this Agreement will not be renewed (other than by mutual agreement of the parties or completion of the program), or where the House Officer will not be promoted to the next level of training, the House Officer shall be informed in writing of such decision no later than four months prior to the House Officer’s current Agreement, unless the primary reason(s) for the decision not to promote or renew occurs within the last four months of the term of this Agreement, in which case the House Officer will be provided with as much advance written notice of the decision not to renew or promote as the circumstances will reasonably allow. In all such circumstances, the policy on Eligibility, Selection, Evaluation, Advancement, Supervision and Due Process for House Officers located in the House Officer’s Handbook will govern the parties’ rights and responsibilities.
