Operational Seniority Defined. Operational seniority shall be that seniority which is used to by an employee to select working schedules and overtime when permitted by the Employer. Operational seniority is defined as the length of time an employee has been employed in a job classification as a part-time or fulltime employee on a permanent basis. Operational seniority differs from classification seniority in that prior to December 31, 2001; it was calculated based upon hours worked in the classification. Thus, prior to December 31, 2001 an employee hired subsequent to another employee could become more senior to the previously hired employee by working greater hours. However, as of December 31, 2001, the operational seniority list will be frozen and each new employee will be added thereafter based strictly by the date they were hired. Ties in operational seniority shall be broken randomly.
