Staff Reduction Procedure Sample Clauses

Staff Reduction Procedure. The Employer for any reason may determine that it is necessary to reduce the number of employees. In the event it becomes necessary to lay off employees within a particular job classification, the reduction shall be based upon the needs of the school system as determined by the Employer and the relative skill, ability, and competence of the employees for which employment cannot be provided. Whenever lay off occurs, if the skill, ability, and competence of the employees within the affected job classifications are considered equal, the employees for which employment cannot be provided shall be laid off in the inverse order of their seniority. No new employees shall be hired until all employees on lay off who are qualified and desire to return to work have been recalled. The affected employees and the Union shall be notified at least fourteen (14) days prior to the effective day of such lay off. An employee scheduled for lay off shall have the right to replace an employee with less seniority and lesser qualifications in his/her department. When a specific opening or openings occur within one year of the lay off and more than one employee applies for the position, the recall shall be based upon the needs of the school system as determined by the Employer and the skill, ability, and competence of the employees. If the skill, ability, and competence of the employees are equal, then the employee with the greatest previous seniority within the department shall be recalled, provided that he/she meets the qualifications necessary for that opening. An employee, who fails to return to work at the job classification laid off from within five working days after being notified by certified mail to the employee’s last known address on file in the office of the Coordinator of Child Care Services, shall lose his/her status as an employee.

In order to promote an orderly reduction of personnel when the education program, curriculum, or staff is curtailed, the following procedures shall be followed. 10.1.1 The Board will communicate to the recognized negotiating body president its intention to implement the staff reduction procedure. The recognized negotiating body will have not more than 10 calendar days from the date of communication to present possible alternatives, which could accomplish the same goals. 10.1.2 Should a reduction in force become necessary, the Board hereby establishes the following criteria (not necessarily in order of priority), any of which may be used in determining which professional staff will be affected by staff reduction: Student needs, financial condition of district, priority of programs, program elimination, recommendations of administrative staff, evaluation records, competency, qualifications, certification, longevity in the Dell Rapids School District, educational background, salaries, federal and state affirmative action requirements, as well as any other relevant considerations. After the above factors have been considered, if the employees are apparently equal in the judgment of the board then the employee having continuing contract status will be given preference. 10.1.3 In making staff reductions involving professional staff members on continuing contract status, the board will follow the procedure outlined in state statutes. 10.1.4 Any certified staff whose employment with the district has been affected by a reduction shall be classified as on lay- off status from active employment by the district and can be recalled to active employment for 15 months. The 15 month time frame shall begin the date the certified staff member receives the formal notice by the Board of the staff reduction resulting in the employee not being offered a teaching contract for the following year. Certified staff shall be recalled to available positions for which they are certified and qualified. To be considered qualified the teacher must have taught in the subject matter and grade level (elementary, middle school, high school) within the previous five (5) years.
