PROTECTION OF TEACHERS A. The Board recognizes its responsibility to give reasonable support and assistance to Teachers for the maintenance of control and discipline in the classroom. Each Teacher, however, bears the primary responsibility for maintaining proper control and discipline in the classroom.
B. As permitted by Section 1309 of the Revised School Code, a Teacher may temporarily exclude a student from one (1) class when the nature of the offense, the persistence of the misbehavior, or the disruptive effect of the violation makes the continued presence of the student in the classroom intolerable. In such cases, the Teacher will furnish the Principal with written particulars of the incident as promptly as teaching obligations allow. Upon request of the Principal, the Teacher shall notify the student’s parent of the nature of the offense. If the Principal determines the need for a meeting with the student’s parent, the Teacher shall attend that meeting.
C. The Teachers recognize that all disciplinary actions and methods invoked by them shall be reasonable and just.
D. Any assault or threatened assault upon a Teacher, resulting from his/her position as a Teacher, shall be promptly reported to the Building Principal by the Teacher or representative. The Board shall provide legal counsel, if requested in writing by the Teacher, to advise the Teacher of the Teacher’s rights and obligations as to such assault. The Board will provide reasonable assistance to the Teacher in working with law enforcement and judicial authorities, unless such counsel and assistance are provided through the Association.
E. If a Teacher is complained against or sued as a result of any reasonable action as defined by a court of law and taken by the Teacher while in the scope of his/her employment with the District, the Board shall provide legal counsel and render all reasonable assistance, as appropriate, to the Teacher in his/her defense when requested in writing by the Teacher. This section shall only require the provision of legal counsel and shall not be interpreted to interfere with the Board’s right to exercise supervision and control, including discharge of the Teacher. If a final decision issued by a court or administrative agency indicates the Teacher’s liability for this action, all costs of assistance rendered by the District to the Teacher pursuant to this paragraph and not covered by the District’s insurance carrier, shall be reimbursed by the Teacher.
F. Except for disciplinary suspension or discharge, or for incarceration, any work time lost by a Teacher in connection with an incident identified in Article 9.D, not compensable under Workers’ Compensation, shall not be charged against the Teacher, unless the Teacher is adjudged liable by an agency or court of competent jurisdiction. When Workers’ Compensation is paid, the Board shall pay the difference between that sum and the Teacher’s regular salary, but not to exceed the current year’s contract. No deduction of leave shall be made under these circumstances.
G. In case of an assault by a student(s) on a Teacher acting in the line of duty, or other action taken by or against a Teacher in the line of duty, causing damage to the Teacher’s personal property, including clothing, the Board shall make an equitable financial settlement for such loss with the Teacher involved.
H. Any complaint directed toward a Teacher shall be promptly called to the Teacher’s attention unless otherwise prohibited by law. This requirement shall not prevent the Supervisor from screening out xxxxx gripes.
I. Teachers shall be expected to exercise reasonable care as to the safety of students and property.
Termination of Therapy Therapist reserves the right to terminate therapy at his/her discretion. Reasons for termination include, but are not limited to, untimely payment of fees, failure to comply with treatment recommendations, conflicts of interest, failure to participate in therapy, Patient needs are outside of Therapist’s scope of competence or practice, or Patient is not making adequate progress in therapy. Patient has the right to terminate therapy at his/her discretion. Upon either party’s decision to terminate therapy, Therapist will generally recommend that Patient participate in at least one, or possibly more, termination sessions. These sessions are intended to facilitate a positive termination experience and give both parties an opportunity to reflect on the work that has been done. Therapist will also attempt to ensure a smooth transition to another therapist by offering referrals to Patient.
Termination or Reduction of the Commitments (a) The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the Available Commitments, provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) no such termination or reduction shall be made that would reduce the aggregate Commitments to an amount less than the Outstanding Credits on the date of such termination or reduction. Subject to the foregoing, any reduction of the Commitments to an amount below $500,000,000 shall also result in a reduction of the LC Commitment Amount to the extent of such deficit (and if such reduction would cause the LC Commitment Amount to be less than the aggregate Fronting Commitments, with automatic reductions in the amount of each Fronting Commitment ratably in proportion to the amount of such reduction of the LC Commitment Amount unless, in the case of any LC Issuing Bank, such LC Issuing Bank consents otherwise). Each such notice of termination or reduction shall be irrevocable; provided, however, that a notice of termination delivered pursuant to this Section 2.08 may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the effective date specified in the notice of termination) if such condition is not satisfied.
(b) The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.21(a)(ii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuing Bank or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.
(c) The Commitment of each Lender shall automatically terminate on the Termination Date applicable to such Lender as provided in Section 2.06.
(d) Once terminated, a Commitment or any portion thereof may not be reinstated.
Termination of the Company Upon the voluntary termination of the Company upon the consent of the Members, the sale or other transfer of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or any other termination of the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall wind up its affairs and shall then be liquidated as provided in Article 13.
Notification of Termination 22.3.2.1 Upon the occurrence at District's sole determination of any of the above conditions, or upon Developer’s failure to perform any material covenant, condition or agreement in this Facilities Lease, District may, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, serve written notice upon Developer and its Surety of District's termination of this Facilities Lease and/or Developer’s right to perform the Work of this Facilities Lease. This notice will contain the reasons for termination.
22.3.2.2 Unless, within fifteen (15) days after the service of the notice, any and all condition(s) shall cease, and any and all violation(s) shall cease, or arrangement satisfactory to District for the correction of the condition(s) and/or violation(s) be made, this Facilities Lease and the Site Lease shall cease and terminate; provided, however, if the failure stated in the notice cannot be corrected within fifteen (15) days after the service of notice, District may consent to an extension of time, provided Developer instituted and diligently pursued corrective action within the applicable fifteen (15)-day period and until the violation is corrected. Upon District determination, Developer shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the entire Work is finished.
22.3.2.3 Upon Termination, District may immediately serve written notice of tender upon Surety whereby Surety shall have the right to take over and perform this Facilities Lease only if Surety:
22.3.2.3.1 Within three (3) days after service upon it of the notice of tender, gives District written notice of Surety’s intention to take over and perform this Facilities Lease; and
22.3.2.3.2 Commences performance of this Facilities Lease within three (3) days from date of serving of its notice to District.
22.3.2.4 Surety shall not utilize Developer in completing the Project if the District notifies Surety of the District’s objection to Developer’s further participation in the completion of the Project. Surety expressly agrees that any developer which Xxxxxx proposes to fulfill Surety’s obligations is subject to District’s approval.
22.3.2.5 If Surety fails to notify District or begin performance as indicated herein, District may take over the Work and execute the Work to completion by any method it may deem advisable at the expense of Developer and/or its Surety. Developer and its Surety shall be liable to District for any excess cost or other damages the District incurs thereby. Time is of the essence in this Facilities Lease. If the District takes over the Work as herein provided, District may, without liability for so doing, take possession of and utilize in completing the Work all materials, appliances, plan, and other property belonging to Developer as may be on the Site of the Work, in bonded storage, or previously paid for.
Evaluation of Tenders 33.1 The Procuring Entity shall use the criteria and methodologies listed in this ITT and Section III, Evaluation and Qualification criteria. No other evaluation criteria or methodologies shall be permitted. By applying the criteria and methodologies, the Procuring Entity shall determine the Lowest Evaluated Tender. This is the Tender of the Tenderer that meets the qualification criteria and whose Tender has been determined to be:
a) substantially responsive to the tender documents; and
b) the lowest evaluated price.
33.2 Price evaluation will be done for Items or Lots (contracts), as specified in the TDS; and the Tender Price as quoted in accordance with ITT 14. To evaluate a Tender, the Procuring Entity shall consider the following:
a) price adjustment due to unconditional discounts offered in accordance with ITT 13.4;
b) converting the amount resulting from applying (a) and (b) above, if relevant, to a single currency in accordance with ITT 31;
c) price adjustment due to quantifiable nonmaterial non-conformities in accordance with ITT 29.3; and
d) any additional evaluation factors specified in the TDS and Section III, Evaluation and Qualification Criteria.
33.3 The estimated effect of the price adjustment provisions of the Conditions of Contract, applied over the period of execution of the Contract, shall not be considered in Tender evaluation.
33.4 Where the tender involves multiple lots or contracts, the tenderer will be allowed to tender for one or more lots (contracts). Each lot or contract will be evaluated in accordance with ITT 33.
WORKFORCE REDUCTION SECTION 1 Layoffs
(A) When employees are to be laid off as defined in the F.S., the state shall implement such layoff in the following manner:
(1) The competitive area for the bargaining unit shall be statewide unless the Department and PBA agree otherwise.
(2) Layoff shall be by class or occupational level within the Security Services Bargaining Unit.
(3) An employee who has not attained permanent status in his current position may be laid off without applying the provision for retention rights.
(4) No employee with permanent status in his current position shall be laid off while an employee who does not hold permanent status in his current position is serving in that class or level unless the permanent employee does not elect to exercise his retention rights or does not meet the selective competition criteria.
(5) All employees who have permanent status in their current positions shall be ranked on a layoff list for the affected class or level based on the total retention points derived as follows:
(a) Length of service retention points shall be based on one point for each month of continuous service in a Career Service position.
1. An employee who resigns from one Career Service position to accept employment in another Career Service position is not considered to have a break in service.
2. An employee who has been laid off and is reemployed within one year from the date of the layoff shall not be considered to have a break in service.
3. Moving from Career Service to Selected Exempt Service or Senior Management Service and back to Career Service does not constitute a break in service unless the employee’s break in service is more than 31 calendar days. Only time spent in the Career Service is counted in calculating retention points.
(b) Retention points deducted for performance not meeting performance standards or work expectations defined for the position shall be based on the five years immediately prior to the agency’s established cutoff date. Five points shall be deducted for each month an employee has a rating below performance expectations.
(6) The layoff list shall be prepared by totaling retention points. Employees eligible for veterans’ preference pursuant to section 295.07(1)(a) or (b), F.S., shall have 15 percent added to their total retention points, those eligible pursuant to section 295.07(1)(c), (d), or (e), F.S., shall have 10 percent added to their total retention points, and those eligible pursuant to section 295.071(1)(f), or (g), F.S., shall have five percent added to their total retention points.
(7) The employee with the highest total retention points is placed at the top of the list, and the employee with the lowest retention points is placed at the bottom of the list.
(8) The employee at the top of the list shall bump the employee at the bottom of the list. The next highest employee on the list and the remaining employees shall be handled in the same manner until the total number of filled positions in the class to be abolished is complete.
(9) Should two or more employees have the same combined total of retention points, the order of layoff shall be determined by giving preference for retention in the following sequence:
(a) The employee with the longest service in the affected class.
(b) The employee with the longest continuous service in the Career Service.
(c) The employee who is entitled to veterans’ preference pursuant to section 295.07(1), F.S.
(10) An employee who has permanent status in his current position and is to be laid off shall be given at least 14 calendar days’ notice of such layoff or two weeks’ pay, or a combination of days of notice and pay. Any payment will be made at the employee’s current hourly base rate of pay. The notice of layoff shall be in writing and sent to the employee by certified mail, return receipt requested. Within seven calendar days after receiving the notice of layoff, the employee shall have the right to request, in writing, a lateral action, reassignment, or demotion within the competitive area in lieu of layoff to a position in a class within the bargaining unit in which the employee held permanent status, or to a position in a class at the level of or below the class in the bargaining unit in which the employee held permanent status.
(11) An employee’s request for lateral action, reassignment, or demotion shall be granted unless it would cause the layoff of another employee who possesses a greater total of retention points.
(12) An employee adversely affected as a result of another employee having a greater number of retention points shall have the same right of lateral action, reassignment or demotion under the same procedure as provided in this section.
(13) If an employee requests a lateral action, reassignment, or demotion in lieu of layoff, the same formula and criteria for establishing retention points for that class shall be used as prescribed in this section.
(B) If there is to be a layoff of employees, the state shall take all reasonable steps to place any adversely affected employees in existing vacancies for which they are qualified.
(C) If work performed by employees in this unit is to be performed by non-state employees, the state agrees to encourage the employing entity to consider any adversely affected unit employees for employment in its organization if the state has been unable to place the employees in other positions within the State Personnel System.
Optional Termination or Reduction of the Commitments The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused Commitments of the Lenders, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.
Clarification of Tenders 26.1 To assist in the examination, evaluation, comparison of the Tenders, and qualification of the Tenderers, the Procuring Entity may, at its discretion, ask any Tenderer for a clarification of its Tender. Any clarification submitted by a Tenderer in respect to its Tender and that is not in response to a request by the Procuring Entity shall not be considered. The Procuring Entity's request for clarification and the response shall be in writing. No change, including any voluntary increase or decrease, in the prices or substance of the Tender shall be sought, offered, or permitted except to confirm the correction of arithmetic errors discovered by the Procuring Entity in the Evaluation of the Tenders, in accordance with ITT 30. If a Tenderer does not provide clarifications of its Tender by the date and time set in the Procuring Entity's request for clarification, its Tender may be rejected.
RELOCATION OF TENANT Upon prior written notice to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to relocate Tenant to new space (the “Relocation Space”) within the Project that is comparable in size, utility, and condition to the Premises, including similar Tenant Improvements. Such relocation will be effective on a date specified by Landlord in its relocation notice, which date will not be less than ninety (90) days after the date of such notice. If Landlord relocates Tenant, Landlord will reimburse Tenant for Tenant’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for moving Tenant’s furniture, equipment, and supplies from the Premises to the Relocation Space, and other reasonable relocation costs. Tenant shall be entitled to concurrently occupy both the Premises and Relocation Space for a period not to exceed twenty (20) days in order to effectuate its relocation in a minimally non-disruptive manner. Upon such relocation, the Relocation Space will be deemed to be the Premises and the terms of this Lease will remain in full force and effect and apply to the Relocation Space. No amendment or other instrument shall be necessary to effectuate the relocation contemplated by this Section; however, if requested by Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an appropriate amendment document within twenty (20) days after Landlord’s request therefor. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver such relocation amendment within such time period, or if Tenant fails to relocate within the time period stated in Landlord’s relocation notice to Tenant (or, if the Relocation Space is not available on the date specified in Landlord’s relocation notice, as soon thereafter as the Relocation Space becomes available and is tendered to Tenant in the condition required by this Lease), then, in addition to Landlord’s other remedies set forth in this Lease, at law and/or in equity, Landlord may terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing thereof at least sixty (60) days prior to the termination date contained in Landlord’s termination notice. Landlord’s exercise of its rights as permitted by this Section shall not (a) constitute a constructive eviction, an interference with Tenant’s right of quiet enjoyment, or a disturbance of Tenant’s right to use the Premises; and (b) subject Landlord to damages, including, but not limited to, damages for loss of goodwill, business, or profits. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s obligations under this Section.
