LAY-OFF AND RECALL 16.01 Where, because of lack of work, lack of funds or reorganization, resulting in abolishment of jobs or functions, the Employer determines it necessary to reduce the size of its workforce, the Employer shall give written notice to the Union President or his designee no less than twenty-one (21) days in advance of any such lay-off, indicating how many employees will be affected and what department(s) are being reduced. Such reductions shall be made in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth. 16.02 Employees within affected classifications shall be laid off according to their relative seniority (within the department) with the least senior employee being laid off first, providing that all students, temporary, part-time, seasonal and probationary employees within the affected classifications are laid off first. For the purposes of this article, department or bargaining unit shall mean the various positions included in Appendix "A". 16.03 Employees who are laid off from one classification may displace (bump) another employee with lesser seniority in a lower rated classification within the same department. 16.04 Employees who are bumped by a more senior employee shall be able to bump another employee with lesser seniority in a lower rated classification pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 16.03, above. 16.05 At the end of the bumping process, the employee who is bumped and unable to bump another employee pursuant to the above provisions, shall be laid off. 16.06 Employee(s) who are laid off, shall have the option of bumping another employee pursuant to the above provisions, or being directly laid off by the Employer. 16.07 In all cases where one (1) employee is exercising his seniority to bump another employee, his right to bump into another department is subject to the conditions that he is qualified for the position and able to perform the functions and duties of the position into which he is attempting to bump, as determined by the Employer. 16.08 Recalls shall be in the inverse order of lay-off and a laid off employee shall retain his right to recall for eighteen (18) months from the date of his lay-off. 16.09 Notice of recall shall be sent to the employee's address listed on the Employers records and shall be sent by certified mail. An employee who refuses recall or does not report for work within fourteen (14) days from the date the employee receives the recall notice, shall be considered to have resigned his position and forfeits all rights to employment with the Employer. 16.10 Employee(s) scheduled for lay-off shall be given a minimum of twenty-one (21) days advance notice of lay-off. 16.11 Each notice of lay-off shall contain the following information: 1) The reason for lay-off or displacement; 2) The date that the lay-off or displacement becomes effective; 3) The employee's seniority date in the classification; 4) A statement advising the employee of the right to recall and re-employment. 16.12 In the event of extenuating circumstances such as illness, injury, or other good cause preventing the employee from returning within the time limit above, the City may, at its sole discretion, grant a reasonable extension, not to exceed thirty (30) days. In the event such illness or injury precludes an employee from returning to work within the time limit above (including extension), such employee shall be by-passed for recall, but shall remain on the recall list, for the remainder of the term of the recall period. The denial of an extension shall not be made in an arbitrary manner. 16.13 In the event a job opening occurs in a lower rated classification, the most senior employee on lay off will be recalled and given the option of accepting the job or not, provided he has the ability and qualifications, as determined by the Employer, to perform the work in question. If the employee accepts the job opening, he will have the right to claim his original classification in the event it becomes available within eighteen (18) months. 16.14 Recall lists shall be kept current by the City. The Union President shall be furnished and/or forwarded a copy of all recall lists as they are made current by the City.
Layoff Procedure A. Once the University determines the need for a layoff exists, it shall employ the following procedure: 1. If at any time during the layoff process an employee submits his notice of retirement, resignation or volunteers for layoff, the University will review its layoff rationale. Where appropriate, the University may curtail staff reductions and/or recall laid-off employee(s). The University shall first lay off non-bargaining unit temporary employees with the same job classification and within the department(s) where the layoff(s) occurs. The University shall then lay off probationary employees with the same job classification and within the affected department(s). The University shall then lay off part-time employees with the same job classification and within the affected department(s). 2. If further reductions are required, employees in the affected job classification(s) shall be laid off as follows: a. any employees in the affected classification who have active discipline at the suspension (whether a working suspension or unpaid suspension) level or covered by a “last chance agreement” for conduct other than that covered by Article 41, or b. any employees who have an overall performance evaluation rating below standards (i.e. a “needs improvement” rating or below) for the two most recent performance evaluation rating periods, or c. in the inverse order of seniority. The remaining employees within the department or unit must be immediately qualified to perform the required work. For purposes of layoff, placement, bumping, and recall, “immediately qualified” shall be defined as meeting the minimum and preferred qualifications for the position to perform the work, with the exception of the Technology Scale, where “immediately qualified” shall be defined as meeting the minimum qualifications for the position to perform the required work. In determining whether the employee is immediately qualified, the University shall give consideration to ability, aptitude, skill, experience, qualifications as stated in the job description. The determination of qualifications is the responsibility of the University. If the University determines that an employee is not qualified, the employee shall have the right to grieve such decision. Part-time employees shall be laid off before full-time employees, and part-time employees cannot bump full-time employees. Similarly, temporary employees cannot bump regular or funds available employees, regardless of seniority. 3. Student employees shall not be used to perform significant components of the position of a laid off employee. It is agreed that this provision shall not apply to students, whether paid or unpaid, performing work in internships, graduate assistantships, practicums or through other programs whose primary purpose is to satisfy a degree requirement. 4. The University shall make available to laid-off employees, prior to their layoff date, job and career advising and information on benefits. Upon request, the University shall provide reasonable access to personal computers, and copiers for use in preparing resumes and cover letters. Employees shall also have access to EAP services during this time period to deal with any stress-related issues. 5. If the work force is to be reduced, it shall be accomplished by layoff and not by any hours reduction. Only by agreement between the employee, University and Union can the regular hours of employees be reduced. 6. If a layoff occurs during a period of unpaid leave, the employee on leave shall receive the same rights under this Agreement upon return to work as other employees. 7. Any employee scheduled to be laid off from his/her present job may request to be transferred into a posted vacant bargaining unit position for which the employee is immediately qualified to perform the required work. 8. Seniority will continue to accrue up to eighteen (18) months during time spent on layoff, and the employee shall retain all seniority accumulated prior to layoff. 9. Employees laid off while serving his/her initial probationary period or employees in a temporary position (an employee hired for a specific project or hired with a defined end date) will not be entitled to placement, bumping or recall rights.
