Common use of Seniority for Purposes of Layoff Clause in Contracts

Seniority for Purposes of Layoff. Notwithstanding Articles 14.01(a) and 17.01(a), for the purposes of identifying the Seniority of Employees in job classifications 4-10 for purposes of layoff, Seniority in this context shall be determined by the Employees’ start date in the position, rather than the hire date in the bargaining unit. So, for instance, an Employee in job classification 2 who gets promoted to a position in job classification 9 will be deemed to have less Seniority for layoff purposes than every other Employee in that position, except those whose hire date in the bargaining unit occurs after the date of the promotion.
