Common use of Relocation of the Workforce Clause in Contracts

Relocation of the Workforce. Employees required to relocate as a result of a reduction of work in a location shall be transferred in inverse order using classification seniority, and may first select open and available position(s) at any location, or may displace less senior employees within their classification from existing positions using classification seniority, and such displaced employees shall follow the same procedure. Refusal to select will result in the employee being released irrespective of seniority. Such transfers will take precedent over all other normal movement of employees (i.e., standing applications). Employees who are forced to relocate or who are displaced in accordance with the above will be entitled to submit an application for preferential relocation, returning to the one location from which they were displaced, provided that such application is received not later than ten (10) days following the date of the actual relocation. Such application will be kept on file and will be utilized to return such employees to their displaced location, in order of classification seniority, if and when vacancies are to be filled. These applications will take precedence over the standing application procedure. All such applications for preferential relocation will cease to have any validity: (a) if the employee subsequently withdraws the application; (b) if the employee receives any relocation or promotion under the standing application procedure, or; (c) if the employee is relocated according to his/her application, or; (d) following eighteen (18) calendar months from the date of the relocation. In the application of seniority on layoff, and transfer, the Corporation will not be prevented from maintaining a working force of employees who are able and willing to do the work which is available. Such Corporation action shall not be inconsistent with the above terms of this Article.
