If an Employee elects (i) or (ii) and the Employer determines that the Employee does not have the ability to perform the work of the position selected, the Employer shall inform the Employee and the Local of such within 10 consecutive calendar days, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and Named Holidays which are specified in Article 18: Named Holidays, of the Employee making such selection.

  • Displacement Rights Regular classified employees in positions which have been eliminated or reduced in hours shall have the right to displace the least senior employee in their classification whose assignment most closely approximates their own hours per day and days per work year. If there is no least senior employee in the same classification employees may displace the least senior employee in the next lower classification in which they have served as either a probationary or permanent employee and have greater classification seniority than the least senior employees. In the event of an employee having the option of exercising their displacement rights, the following displacement procedure will clarify the language in 15.5 and be applied as the displacement procedure. The steps will be taken in numerical order. 15.5.1 An employee whose position is eliminated or reduced shall first be placed in a vacant position with an equal assignment in the same classification when compared with the employee’s current position. 15.5.2 If the previous option is unavailable, the employee shall be placed in a vacant position that has additional assigned time in the same classification when compared with the employee’s current position. 15.5.3 If the previous option is unavailable, the employee shall have the right to displace the least senior employee in the same classification whose assignment is equal in hours per day and days per work year. 15.5.4 If the previous option is unavailable, the employee shall have the right to displace the least senior of the less senior employees in their classification whose assignment most closely approximates the employee’s own hours per day and days per work year. This assignment may hold more hours or fewer hours than the employee’s current position. If there are two positions in option 4 above, whose hours equally approximate the employee’s current position, one with more hours and one with less, the employee will have the right to the position held by the least senior employee regardless of the number of hours of the position. 15.5.5 If the previous option results in the elimination of the employee’s current Health and Welfare benefits, as an alternative, the employee shall also have the option of bumping into an equal or lower classification, which they previously held as a classified employee, for the purpose of non-elimination of Health and Welfare benefits. The employee will repeat the sequence of options 1-4, outlined in this rule for equal or lower classification.
