Salary Advancement H. The City Manager may approve the appointment of an employee who is to be laid off to an existing vacancy in a lower class for which the employee is qualified without requiring an examination, provided the concerned department head so recommends.
I. The names of regular employees who have been laid off or bumped down due to reduction in force shall be placed on an appropriate layoff reemployment list according to date separated or bumped down and shall be eligible for reemployment. The last employee laid off or bumped down shall be the first employee on the list, with other employees listed in sequential order thereafter. Each employee on the layoff reemployment list shall remain on that list for 1 year, at which time the list expires unless extended by the City Manager. Names of employees not responding to written notification of an opening within 10 working days shall be removed from the reemployment list. The City Manager can extend the active period of the reemployment list or individual employee's eligibility on such list for a 6-month period as determined to be in the best interests of the City.
J. Notice of recall from layoff shall be by return-receipt-requested mail and shall specify the date for reporting to work, which shall not be more than 21 calendar days from the date the notice is received.

Upon receiving notice, the person on layoff shall have 5 calendar days to accept or decline the recall opportunity. An employee who fails to respond within the 5 calendar days, refuses recall, or fails to report on the prescribed date within the 21-calendar-day maximum thereby waives all further right to recall and reinstatement as an employee. Where recall is declined, the City will proceed to the next name on the reemployment list and follow the same notice and response procedure. This process will continue through the list until recall needs are met on the list or the list is exhausted.
K. A person appointed from a reemployment list must serve a new probationary period if recall from such list occurs more than 90 calendar days after the effective date of layoff. The new probationary period in such circumstances shall be 6 months.
L. Reemployed employees shall receive the following:
1. Retention of full-time service seniority accrued at the date of layoff.
2. The salary for the classification in effect as of the date of return, at the same step as the date of layoff.
3. The accrual rate of vacation and sick leave in effect for the employee's seniority level and class at the time of rehire.
4. All the benefits or programs in effect at the time of layoff shall be forfeited unless they are still applied to the classification or salary range at the time of rehire or provided to new hires as of that date.
M. An employee who elects to resign in lieu of layoff, or while laid off, shall forfeit all rights to reemployment and is entitled only to those rights related to severance from City employment.
