Seniority Determination. 1. Seniority shall be determined by the day, month, and year and time the teacher signed a regular or provisional contract with the Board or the date of a letter of assignment within each of the categories indicated in D.1 of this article.
Seniority Determination. The Board and the Union agree that increased length of service in the employment of the Board entitles employees to commensurate increase in security of teaching employment.
Seniority Determination. In determining seniority for purposes of the agreement, seniority date shall be established for each employee as beginning with his/her most recent date of hiring with this school district (or its former autonomous units). A teacher on unpaid leave of absence will not accrue seniority credit and such time, if any, shall not be counted toward tenure. Where there is a “tie” between two staff members (i.e. where the number of months of credited service in Bedford as of the most immediate past September 1 is equal) the following four criteria will be applied to “break” the tie in order as listed. The Association has agreed these are not arbitrary criteria.
Seniority Determination. Within the limits of an individual educator’s certification, educators with greater seniority will be given preference in employment. An employee’s seniority shall be determined by his/her total number of years in education as established by application of rules used in crediting experience on the salary schedule. The person having the larger number of years will have the higher seniority, and the person having the smaller number of years will have the lower seniority. Educators shall be considered to have seniority for all positions in which s/he has the experience, education, or certification to fulfill the requirements of the position. In the case of two (2) persons having an equal number of years, seniority shall be determined by placement on the salary schedule, with the person placed in the higher pay column for education/training having the higher seniority and the person placed in the lower pay column for education/training having the lower seniority. In the case of two (2) persons having an equal number of years and equal placement on the salary schedule for education/training, the tie shall be broken with the rules set forth in the order below.
Seniority Determination. Seniority for the purpose of a layoff is defined as length of continuous employment within the DCSO.
Seniority Determination. Seniority shall be District-wide and shall be computed from the date the employee signed his/her individual contract. Employees who work more than half-time shall receive full seniority. Employees who work half-time or less shall receive prorated seniority. If two (2) or more employees have the same seniority date, the relative order of seniority, for purposes of this Agreement, shall be determined by drawing lots.
Seniority Determination. A teacher’s seniority standing shall first be determined by the number of years and months that the teacher has been a member of the appropriate unit as defined in Article III, Section 2, while continuously employed in the District. If two or more teachers have the same number of years and months in the appropriate unit, then their respective seniority standing shall be determined by the earliest date on which each teacher executed their initial individual contract involving continuous service in the School District. If two or more teachers executed such individual contract on the same date, the earliest in time shall be considered the senior employee.
Seniority Determination. Seniority is defined as the length of regular service within the District as an employee under contract in this Unit. If two (2) or more new members begin new employment on the same date, their seniority order shall be determined by the earliest birth date.
Seniority Determination. Seniority shall be determined by an employee's full- time continuous time of service within the Police Department. It is understood that the phrase "time of service" is a reference to employment within the employee's job classification.
Seniority Determination. Seniority shall be defined as total years of continuous service in the District within the respective category of position computed from the first date of continuous employment. Full year and school year service shall be considered equal (i.e., 1 full-year of service and 1 school year of service shall both equal 1 year of seniority). Pro-rata seniority credit shall be given for less than full year/school year service and/or less than full-time service. Unpaid leaves of absence of sixty (60) consecutive days or more shall not be counted in determining seniority, but shall not be deemed a break in continuing service. If the total years of continuous service in the District are equal between two or more employees, then seniority shall be determined by reference to the following tie-breakers:
