Opening of Terminals. When a new terminal(s) is opened (except as a replacement for existing operations or a new division in a locality where there are existing operations), the Employer shall offer to those employees, if any, affected thereby the opportunity to transfer to regular positions in the new terminal(s) in the order of such employee’s continuous classification (road or city) seniority date as defined herein. Upon arrival at such new location, such employees shall be “dovetailed” with their continuous classification (road or city) seniority date together with other employees so transferring. This provision is not intended to cover situations where there is replacement of an existing operation or where a new division is opened in a locality where there is an existing terminal. In these latter situations, those employees laid off at the existing facilities shall have first (1st) opportunity for employment at the new operation in accordance with their continuous classification (road or city) seniority date, and upon arrival shall be similarly “dovetailed.” If all regular full-time positions are not filled in this manner, then the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall apply.
