OCCUPATIONAL SENIORITY Clause Samples

The Occupational Seniority clause establishes the rules for determining the length of service or rank of employees within a specific occupation or job classification. Typically, this clause outlines how seniority is calculated—such as by date of hire or promotion within the occupation—and how it affects decisions like promotions, layoffs, or shift assignments. By clearly defining how occupational seniority is measured and applied, the clause ensures fair treatment among employees and provides a transparent basis for employment decisions, thereby reducing disputes and promoting workplace stability.
