Recall from Long Term Layoff. Employees on Long Term Layoff will be recalled in order of seniority to available job openings provided the employee has the skills, abilities and qualifications to do the work without training other than a familiarization period of up to twenty (20) days. Recall rights will continue for an employee with less than five (5) years seniority a period twenty-four (24) months, or a period equal to his seniority, whichever is the lesser; or if an employee with more than five (5) years seniority is laid off for a period of more than thirty six (36) months. Any period of time worked under a temporary recall, as defined in Section 12.07, will be added to the original date of indefinite layoff, as defined in Section 12.06, and the effective date of the layoff will be advanced accordingly. A period of time mentioned above will be calculated on the basis of one (1) month for every twenty (20) days worked. Where an employee is recalled to a job classification other than his own he shall receive the lower of the top rate in the new classification or his former rate of pay, whichever is less. An employee recalled to a job classification other than his own will be entitled to transfer back to his former classification and pay rate when that job comes open again provided the position becomes available within twelve (12) months of the date of his recall. An employee who exercises his right to bump to a lower classification will be paid the lower of the top rate in the new classification or their current rate of pay, whichever is less.
