Filling Vacant Positions During the time the procedures outlined herein are in effect, position vacancies to be filled shall first be offered to regular employees who have a contractual right to be recalled to a position in the involved job classification or who may have a right to “bump” or transfer to the position, as the case may be. In such circumstances, the seniority provisions of the Agreement shall be observed. If no regular employee has a contractual right to the position, the following shall be given consideration in the order (priority) indicated below: 1st Priority: Qualified Job Bank employees 2nd Priority: Employees on a recall list 3rd Priority: Employee applicants from a list of eligibles 4th Priority: Displaced certified temporary employees 5th Priority: Non-employee applicants from a list of eligibles The qualifications of an employee in the Job Bank or on a recall list shall be reviewed to determine whether they meet the qualifications for a vacant position. Whether the employee can be trained for a position within a reasonable time (not to exceed three months) shall be considered when determining the qualifications of an employee. If it is determined that the employee does not meet the qualifications for a vacant position, the employee may appeal to the Director of Human Resources. If it is determined that an employee in the Job Bank is qualified for a vacant position, the employee shall be selected. The appointing authority may appeal the issue of whether the employee is qualified. The dispute shall be presented to and resolved by the Job Bank Steering Committee. If it is determined that an employee on a recall list is qualified for a vacant position, the employee will be given priority consideration and may be selected. Appeals regarding employees on a recall list and their qualifications for a position will be handled by the Civil Service Commission. The grievance procedure under the Labor Agreement shall not apply to determinations as to qualifications of the employee for a vacant position.
VACANCIES AND NEW POSITIONS 3.3.1 During the work year, written notices of vacancies and new positions within the bargaining unit will be posted on the District jobs website for not less than five (5) working days. For an applicant to be considered for a vacant or new position, they must: a. Submit their online application and all other required application materials no later than five (5) working days from the first day of the posting, and b. Possess the minimum skills and qualifications applicable to the vacant or new position. 3.3.2 A vacancy is an open position within the bargaining unit or non represented groups over 10 hours per week (i.e., 2.1 hours per day). Employees who meet the posted qualifications will receive an interview for the position upon application. Applicants not receiving an interview or offer of position will be given feedback, upon request. Skill tests will not normally be required if the skill requirements of the new position are not greater than the applicant's current assignment unless the skill test is deemed necessary to determine the most qualified applicant. Positions will be filled by any present or prospective employee based upon affirmative action requirements, experience, and job qualifications for the position. If two finalists are considered equal, then the applicant from within the district with the most bargaining unit seniority will be selected for bargaining unit positions. 3.3.3 Employees transferred to new positions in the bargaining unit will receive salary credit at full value for all prior experience gained within the bargaining unit. 3.3.4 Current employees within the bargaining unit who are accepted for a position under Section 3.3.2 above will be given a thirty (30) work day work trial. If the employee's performance on the new job is not satisfactory, she/he will be returned to her/his former position or to another suitable position. Absent just cause for termination, such employee will not be terminated due to her/his unsatisfactory performance during the thirty (30) day trial period. 3.3.5 Increased hours at the worksite will be offered first to the most senior employees within the classification, if qualified as determined by the supervisor at the worksite, providing they have a work schedule which can accommodate the additional hour(s) within a normal work week. The number of hours per week may be offered up to ten (10) hours, but may not result in a combined assignment of more than forty (40) hours per week. Employees wishing more hours of work will notify their supervisor/building administrator in writing. 3.3.6 Summer school assignments will be offered on a seniority basis, except that those employees who carry out the job during the course of the regular work year will receive first choice of refusal. 3.3.7 If the school district uses a numerical staffing formula to assign employees to schools based on enrollment, employee hours will be adjusted in October of the school year to reflect actual enrollment. The formula results and adjusted hours will be provided to the association president(s) by October 15. 3.3.8 The district will provide at least a two (2) week written notice of paraeducator hour reduction due to a decreased student overload factor. 3.3.9 An employee involuntarily transferred to a new position with a different job title will suffer no loss in hourly rate of pay. The transferred employee will be placed on the same experience step as in the previous position. An employee transferred to a position with a lower hourly rate of pay will be required to seek to restore lost pay by applying for open positions within the department for which he/she is qualified. An employee may choose to decline up to three (3) positions that will make him/her whole. Following the third (3rd) decline, any enhanced pay, travel time, and/or mileage reimbursements will end. 3.3.10 When reassignments are too numerous to fill individually, the district will schedule a reassignment meeting. The district will display all open positions and the current seniority list. Employees facing reassignment will be required to attend either in person or by proxy. By seniority, employees must select from any open position for which they are qualified to restore any lost hours. Such restoration cannot exceed thirty (30) additional minutes over lost hours. If hours cannot be restored with open positions by seniority, employees may bump the least senior person. Bumping will occur in the following order, first by the department in which they have lost hours and then by any other departments in which they retain seniority. Multiple reassignment meetings may be necessary. 3.3.11 Employees who have been reassigned will have priority rights, by seniority, to open positions for which they are qualified for up to twenty-four months. Reassigned employees will be required to communicate in writing, in person, by proxy, or by email their interest in a position in the pool no later than 4:00 PM of the day the position closes, if the position will make them whole. If employees have not responded by 4:00 PM of the day the position closes, they have declined the position. Notice of assignment will be provided via phone and follow-up letter within five (5) working days.
Vacant Positions An employee on the reinstatement roster may bid on a vacant position in a different classification in the same manner as any other regular employee pursuant to this agreement.
Resignation from All Positions Upon the termination or resignation of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive shall be deemed to have resigned, as of the date of such termination or resignation, from and with respect to all positions the Executive then holds as an officer, director, employee and member of the Board of Directors (and any committee thereof) of the Company and any of its Affiliates.
Term Position A position occupied by a full-time or part-time nurse for a specified period of time, up to a maximum of sixty (60) weeks, where patient/client/resident census or workload necessitates a temporary increase in staffing, if mutually agreed, to replace a nurse(s) who is/are on vacation or leave of absence, or to carry out a special short term project or where the Employer has provided notice of permanent deletion of position(s) under the Memorandum of Understanding regarding Employment Security, or as otherwise mutually agreed between the Union and the Employer. If the Employer determines there is a term position to be filled by a nurse, the term position shall be posted in accordance with Article 30. This shall not preclude the Employer from utilizing part-time nurses and/or casual nurses to work available shifts as specified in Articles 34 and 35 when the Employer decides that a term position is not required. The Employer shall provide written confirmation of the start and expiry dates of the term position prior to the nurse's commencement in the position. This period may be extended if the Employer so requests and the Union agrees. The maximum duration specified in paragraph 1 above for term positions shall not apply in situations where a nurse is absent indefinitely due to Workers Compensation and/or illness and/or accident or where there is a temporary vacancy due to leave for Public Office. In these cases, the Employer shall state on the job posting that the said term position is an "Indefinite Term" which will expire subject to a minimum of twenty-four

MEMBERS OF DIPLOMATIC MISSIONS AND CONSULAR POSTS Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the fiscal privileges of members of diplomatic missions or consular posts under the general rules of international law or under the provisions of special agreements.
STRS PICK-UP The Board agrees, as a condition of employment, to tax shelter employee contributions to the State Teacher's Retirement System (STRS) in accordance with State Retirement System and Federal Internal Revenue Service guidelines and restrictions. This section in no way implies that the Board will contribute any portion of the employee's share of retirement contributions. For purposes of this paragraph, total annual salary and salary per pay period of each bargaining unit member shall be the salary otherwise payable under this Agreement, as amended. The total annual salary and salary per pay period of each member shall be payable by the Board in two parts: (1) deferred salary and (2) cash salary. A member's deferred salary shall be equal to that percentage of said member's total annual salary or salary per pay period which is required from time to time by the State Teachers Retirement System (STRS) to be paid as an employee contribution by said member as a pickup of the STRS employee contribution otherwise payable by said member. A member's cash salary shall be equal to said member's total annual salary or salary per period less the amount of the pickup for said member and shall be payable, subject to applicable payroll deductions, to said member. The Board's total combined expenditures for members' total annual salaries otherwise payable under this Agreement, as amended, (including pickup amounts) and its employer contributions to STRS shall not be greater than the amounts it would have paid for those items had this provision not been in effect. The Board shall compute and remit its employer contributions to STRS based upon total annual salary, including the "pickup". The Board shall report for Federal and Ohio income tax purposes as a member's gross income said member's total annual salary less the amount of the "pickup". The Board shall report for municipal income tax purposes as a member's gross income said member's total annual salary, including the amount of the pickup. The pickup shall be included in the member's total annual salary for the purpose of computing daily rate of pay, for determining paid salary adjustments to be made due to absence, or for any other similar purpose. The pickup shall apply to all payroll payments made after the effective date of this provision. Should the Board's payment of deferred salary cause an individual bargaining unit member's annuity contributions to exceed the IRS permissible level, any such individual shall have the right to adjust annuity deductions within thirty (30) days of the effective date of this provision.
