Temporary or Substitute Help. Persons hired by the Board for temporary periods or on a substitute basis shall not be subject to the terms, benefits or conditions of this Agreement; provided, however, that such temporary or substitute help shall not be used to either cause or continue the layoff of bargaining unit members. As used in this paragraph, “temporary” help shall refer to persons employed to fill positions not exceeding sixty (60) working days in duration; and “substitute” help shall refer to persons employed to fill a position normally filled by a bargaining unit member who is absent from work. Substitute help shall remain as such as long as the bargaining unit member whose job they are filling is expected and entitled to return to work.
