Notice/Procedure for Furloughs. In the event the Employer determines that a furlough is necessary, the Employer agrees to provide the Union and those affected members with as much notice as possible, but not less than seven (7) days, of the planned furlough. Such notice will indicate how the furlough is to be accomplished, apportioned among the bargaining unit, and the effective date that the planned reduction will begin. Furloughs will be limited to personnel paid out of the fund(s) where the lack of funds exists. The Employer agrees to offer employees the option to voluntarily take unpaid furloughs prior to implementing any involuntary furlough time. Once the number and extent of involuntary furlough time is determined, employees will be required to schedule their applicable amount of furlough time by seniority, but subject to the approval of and operational needs of the Employer. The total yearly amount of involuntary furlough time shall be capped at sixty (60) hours per employee. Employees may voluntarily agree to assume a greater amount of unpaid furlough time. Employees who are subject to furlough shall not have their vacation service time reduced, their seniority reduced, nor shall they lose eligibility for Employer sponsored insurance offered under the parties’ agreement.
