Common use of Rights of Laid-Off Employees Clause in Contracts

Rights of Laid-Off Employees. Restoration of hours or recall from layoff will be in reverse order of seniority. Employees will be offered recall to any available position in their job classification, classification series or in any classification they have previously held (provided they meet minimum qualifications for the position). Recall will be accomplished simultaneously by e-mail and trackable mail to the employee’s addresses on file in the Human Resources Department. The employee is responsible for notifying Human Resources of any address changes. The employee must accept or reject the position within seven (7) days and report to work within fourteen (14) days of the mailing of the recall notice unless the Employer and the employee agree otherwise. An employee’s recall and employment rights terminate if the employee rejects an equivalent job (same classification and rate of pay as the pre-layoff job) in the zone of the employee’s home worksite.
