Account Closure At any time, for any reason, we may take any of these actions subject to applicable law:
Layoff Recall A. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, if conditions warrant a layoff of personnel, the following procedure will be used: 1. In the event an employee must be laid off, layoff will be on the basis of seniority, certification, and qualifications. It is understood that the Association shall have the right to review the layoff list prior to notification of the individual to be laid off. 2. An employee in a position being reduced or eliminated shall have the right to be transferred to the full- time position held by the employee with the least seniority for which the more senior employee is certified and qualified. No part-time positions shall be created to retain a senior employee. 3. If the Board acts to lay off an employee, every effort will be made to notify the employee of that Board action within two (2) working days of the action. B. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, a laid off employee shall be recalled to the first vacancy for which he/she is certified and qualified and in reverse order of layoff. Changes in certification and qualifications after the effective date of an employee's layoff are only taken into consideration in recall to vacant positions. A laid-off employee will be recalled to a vacant position for which he/she is certified and qualified before consideration for transfer to an open position will be given to any currently employed, qualified applicant. It is the laid off employee’s responsibility to have on file with the District a current certificate (including any additions or revisions to the certificate) as well as a current statement of any qualifications upon which recall decisions may be based. C. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, an employee’s right to recall shall only extend for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of his/her layoff. D. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, a laid off employee may continue his/her health, dental and life insurance benefits by paying monthly the normal per-subscriber group premium for such benefits to the Board, subject to conditions of existing policies provided such continuation does not affect the group rate. E. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, during a period of impending layoffs in this District, the Board may grant requests for voluntary leaves of absence if the Board deems it economically sound to approve such requests and a satisfactory replacement can be employed. F. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, notification of recall shall be in writing with a copy to the Association President. The notification shall be sent by certified mail to the employee’s last known address. It shall be the responsibility of each employee to notify the Board of any change in address.

Special Parental Allowance for Totally Disabled Employees (a) An employee who: (i) fails to satisfy the eligibility requirement specified in subparagraph 17.05(a)(ii) solely because a concurrent entitlement to benefits under the Disability Insurance (DI) Plan, the Long-term Disability (LTD) Insurance portion of the Public Service Management Insurance Plan (PSMIP) or via the Government Employees Compensation Act prevents the employee from receiving Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan benefits, and (ii) has satisfied all of the other eligibility criteria specified in paragraph 17.05(a), other than those specified in sections (A) and (B) of subparagraph 17.05(a)(iii), shall be paid, in respect of each week of benefits under the parental allowance not received for the reason described in subparagraph (i), the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of the employee's rate of pay and the gross amount of his or her weekly disability benefit under the DI Plan, the LTD Plan or via the Government Employees Compensation Act. (b) An employee shall be paid an allowance under this clause and under clause 17.05 for a combined period of no more than the number of weeks during which the employee would have been eligible for parental, paternity or adoption benefits under the Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan, had the employee not been disqualified from Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan benefits for the reasons described in subparagraph (a)(i).
Emergency Closure Where there is a temporary closure as a result of an immediate emergency or a planned temporary closure due to renovations, repairs, or moves, the Employer will: a) First offer to the affected employees the choice of taking either a vacation day or an unpaid leave of absence with no loss of seniority or benefits; thereafter, at the Employer's discretion, one of the following: b) Reassign staff to another location; c) Reschedule the lost hours within two (2) pay periods; or d) Decide not to do either (b) or (c), in which case employees shall still be paid for their regularly scheduled hours which they did not work as a result of the temporary layoff.

Role of Seniority in Layoffs (a) Both parties recognize that job security shall increase in proportion to length of service. Therefore, in the event of a layoff, employees shall be laid off in the reverse order of their bargaining-unit-wide seniority, providing that the retained employees are able to perform the available work. (b) The layoff process will occur in accordance with the Layoff/Recall Policy and Procedures. In no case may this policy override a right or condition outlined within this Collective Agreement.
SENIORITY, LAYOFF AND RECALL A. “University seniority” is the employee’s length of continuous service with the University from the employee’s most recent date of hire into a Bargaining Unit position. This date will be considered the date that the employee begins active pay status in a Bargaining Unit position. B. An employee’s seniority shall terminate: 1. If the employee quits. 2. If the employee retires. 3. If the employee is discharged. 4. If the employee who has completed the new hire probationary period fails to report to work as scheduled or fails to report after any authorized absence or layoff, the employee may be terminated effective on the 7th day following the date of mailing a letter from the University advising the employee that they may be terminated if the employee does not advise the University of the employee’s intention to report to work as scheduled. The letter shall be mailed via certified and regular U.S. Mail. 5. When an employee is assigned out of the Bargaining Unit the following provisions will apply: a. If an employee is given a promotion out of the Bargaining Unit, and the employee is later found not to have met the posted qualifications, the employee may be returned to the employee’s prior position without a loss of seniority at any time during the employee’s probationary period. b. If an employee leaves the Bargaining Unit to take a non-Bargaining Unit position and returns to the Bargaining Unit for reasons other than those set forth above during the employee’s probationary period, the employee shall be credited with the employee’s prior seniority and Bargaining Unit rights but shall not be credited with seniority for service outside the Bargaining Unit. c. Except for laid-off employees who are awarded a non-Bargaining Unit position, once an employee has completed the employee’s probation in a non-Bargaining Unit position, the employee relinquishes all forms of Bargaining Unit seniority and shall be treated as a new employee in the event the employee returns to the unit. d. Once a Bargaining Unit employee is promoted out of the Bargaining Unit, the employee does not retain any Bargaining Unit rights except those listed above (i.e., seniority rights). e. This Agreement does not abridge Management’s rights nor guarantee that the employee shall be returned to his or her prior position. C. Departments/segments for the purpose of this Article are defined in Article 16 - Classifications. D. The University will provide the Union with three (3) copies of a seniority list on March 1, and September 1, of each year showing the seniority of each employee in the Bargaining Unit by University Seniority. Any employee shall have ten (10) working days after the list is prepared and posted in the departments to question the employee’s position on that list. If no question is received within the time period, the list shall be deemed accurate for the remainder of the posting period; and if a question is received, the list will be reviewed and revised as appropriate. If two (2) or more employees have the same University Seniority date, their names shall be listed alphabetically last name first, first name last. E. The University will provide the Union with a bi-weekly list of new hires, terminations, promotions, lateral moves, leaves of absence, and retirements in the Bargaining Unit. The list will include the name of the employee and the date of the action. F. The University will continue its efforts to avoid layoffs and will discuss at least thirty (30) days prior to layoff any potential layoffs with the Union in a scheduled labor management meeting. However, the University and the Union recognize that due to lack of funds or lack of work, temporary and permanent layoffs may be required to effectively and efficiently operate the University. G. For seasonal layoffs the following provisions will apply: 1. The University will continue its efforts to minimize seasonal layoffs; but if there is a seasonal layoff of employees in Residential Dining Services, Xxxxx University Center Culinary Services, and/or Central Food Facility of less than 120 days, the provisions of this Article regarding layoffs are not applicable. H. Layoffs will take place according to seniority and in accordance with the specific provisions of this Article covering segments and/or specific classification series within each segment. The University retains the right to determine layoffs in a particular classification, departmental classification series, and/or segment, and the specifics of each layoff. I. The University will lay off the employee with the least University seniority in a classification in a segment’s classification series. (Classification series defined in Article 16 – Classifications.) J. An employee who is laid off will first have the right to displace another employee with less University Seniority in the same classification throughout the University. If there is no less senior employee within the classification, the employee may displace a less senior employee in any classification in which the employee has previously served, or an equivalent or lower classification that the employee is qualified to hold. If there is no other classification available, the employee may displace the full time employee with the least University seniority in the lowest classification University-wide who may then displace the part time employee with the least University seniority in the lowest classification University-wide. Part time employees may not bump full time employees but may bump less senior part time employees. After the exercise of a laid-off employee’s displacement rights, the employee shall not be considered to have further displacement rights until the employee would be subject to layoff again. Employees may choose layoff rather than exercise their displacement right. Such employees will not be considered to have waived their recall rights, nor negatively affect their employment rights. K. An employee’s displacement rights shall be subject to fulfillment of qualifications for the position. Qualifications shall be determined by a thirty-day probationary period if the employee has bumped into a classification in which the employee has not previously served. If the employee does not meet the qualifications of the position at the end of 30 days, the affected employee will be laid off with recall rights. L. Employees shall be notified of layoff in writing by the University at least fourteen (14) calendar days in advance of the layoff. Except for extraordinary circumstances such as acts of God or hospitalization, the employee shall have five (5) days after receipt of the fourteen (14) day notice, excluding weekends and holidays, to notify the University in writing of the employee’s intention to exercise the employee’s displacement rights and to notify the University in writing of the employee’s displacement selection. Failure to provide written notification of the employee’s intention/selection as specified above waives the employee’s displacement rights. M. Employees will be recalled to work in reverse order of the layoff procedure specified herein. Employees shall have recall and reinstatement rights for the period of time equal to the length of their Bargaining Unit seniority from the date of the layoff. However, after two years the affected employee, if interested, will have the obligation to monitor job availabilities by utilizing employment resources available through University Human Resources. An employee who is reinstated shall not serve a probationary period upon reinstatement except where the employee was a probationary employee and the probationary period shall begin anew. Notice of recall to an employee shall be made by hand delivery, or certified mail, or by other carrier using return receipt, to the last known address of such employee. A copy shall be forwarded to the Union. If undeliverable, the University’s obligation shall be considered to be fulfilled. The recalled employee must notify the University within three (3) working days of the date of receipt of notice of his/her intention to return to work. The date for returning to work shall be no less than seven (7) calendar days from date of notice received unless mutually agreed upon with the Union. Failure to return from layoff shall subject the employee to termination of service.
