Voluntary Employee Contributions (i) Subject to the governing rules of the relevant superannuation fund, an employee may, in writing, authorise their employer to pay on behalf of the employee a specified amount from the post- taxation wages of the employee into the same superannuation fund as the employer makes the superannuation contributions provided for in Clause 24(b).
(ii) An employee may adjust the amount the employee has authorised their employer to pay from the wages of the employee from the first of the month following the giving of three months’ written notice to their employer.
(iii) The employer must pay the amount authorised under Clauses 24(d)(i) or 24(d)(ii) no later than 28 days after the end of the month in which the deduction authorised under Clauses 24(d)(i) or 24(d)(ii) was made.
Voluntary Redundancy a) With the exception of areas where there is only one position under review, the employer will call for expressions of interest from kaimahi within the area of review who wish to volunteer for redundancy to cover the surplus/es positions that have been identified.
b) Should the number of volunteers exceed the number of surpluses, the employer will apply selection criteria as defined in clause 12.7 to determine whose application for redundancy will be accepted.
c) Should the number of volunteers not exceed the number of identified surpluses, the employer will accept all expressions of interest from those who have volunteered subject to the operational requirements of the employer.
d) Should there be no volunteers or insufficient volunteers to discharge the surplus, the employer shall then apply the criteria set out in clause 11.7 to identify the kaimahi to be declared surplus.
Employee Discipline Appropriate sanctions must be applied against workforce 18 members who fail to comply with any provisions of CONTRACTOR’s privacy P&Ps, including 19 termination of employment where appropriate.
Voluntary Layoff Appointing authorities will allow an employee in the same job classification and department where layoffs will occur to volunteer to be laid off provided that the employee is in a position requiring the same skills and abilities, as a position subject to layoff. Any volunteer for layoff shall have no formal layoff option. If the appointing authority accepts the employee’s voluntary request for layoff, the employee will submit a non-revocable letter stating they are accepting a voluntary layoff from the University.

Voluntary Exit Option If after making offers of early retirement, individual layoff notices are still required, prior to issuing those notices the Hospital will offer a voluntary early exit option in accordance with the following conditions:
i) The Hospital will first make offers in the classifications within department(s) where layoffs would otherwise occur. If more employees than are required are interested, the Hospital will make its decision based on seniority.
ii) If insufficient employees in the department affected accept the offer, the Hospital will then extend the offer to employees in the same classification in other departments. If more employees than are required are interested, the Hospital will make its decision based on seniority.
iii) In no case will the Hospital approve an employee’s request under (i) and (ii) above for a voluntary early exit option, if the employees remaining are not qualified to perform the available work.
iv) The number of voluntary early exit options the Hospital approves will not exceed the number of employees in that classification who would otherwise be laid off. The last day of employment for an employee who accepts a voluntary early exit option will be at the Hospital’s discretion and will be no earlier than thirty (30) calendar days immediately following the employee’s written acceptance of the offer. An employee who elects a voluntary early exit option shall receive, following completion of the last day of work, a separation allowance of two (2) weeks' salary for each year of service, to a maximum of fifty-two (52) weeks' pay.
By Employee for Good Reason Subject to compliance with the notice and opportunity for cure requirements set forth at the end of this Section 5(c), Employee may terminate [his/her] employment under this Agreement for “Good Reason” if any of the following circumstances occurs during the Retention Period without Employee’s express written consent:
(i) a reduction in Employee’s base annual salary from that provided immediately before the Change in Control Date;
(ii) a failure by Nordson to make available to Employee compensation plans, employee pension plans, and employee welfare benefit plans (collectively, “Plans”) and other benefits and perquisites that provide opportunities to receive overall compensation and benefits and perquisites at least equal to the opportunities for overall compensation and benefits and perquisites that were available to Employee immediately before the Change in Control Date;
(iii) a change in the location of Employee’s principal place of employment by more than 50 miles from the location where Employee was principally employed immediately before the Change in Control Date;
(iv) a significant increase in the frequency or duration of Employee’s business travel; or
(v) a material and adverse change in the authorities, powers, functions, or duties attached to Employee’s position from those authorities, powers, functions, and duties as they existed immediately before the Change in Control Date (but a change in the office or officer to whom Employee reports will not, in itself, be deemed to be a material adverse change in Employee’s authorities, powers, functions, or duties for these purposes). Employee may give notice of termination for Good Reason based on any particular circumstance described in any of (i) through (v) of this Section 5(c) only if Employee gives notice of that intention (and of the particular circumstance on which the notice is based) not later than 90 days after Employee becomes aware of the existence of that particular circumstance. Any notice by Employee of termination for Good Reason must specify a date, not earlier than 30 days after the date on which the notice is given, that Employee proposes as [his/her] Employment Termination Date. If Nordson cures the circumstance identified by Employee in [his/her] notice before the proposed Employment Termination Date, Employee will not be entitled to terminate for Good Reason based upon the cured circumstance and Employee’s notice will be deemed rescinded. If Nordson fails to so cure before the proposed Employment Termination Date, Employee’s employment will terminate for Good Reason effective on that date.
Termination by Employee for Good Reason Employee may terminate his employment hereunder for "Good Reason." As used herein, "Good Reason" shall mean the continuance of any of the following after ten (10) days' prior written notice by Employee to the Company, specifying the basis for such Employee's having Good Reason to terminate this Agreement:
Voluntary Termination by Employee Subject to Section 12 hereof, the Employee may voluntarily terminate employment with the Bank during the term of this Agreement, upon at least 90 days' prior written notice to the Board of Directors, in which case the Employee shall receive only his compensation, vested rights and employee benefits up to the date of his termination (unless such termination occurs pursuant to Section 10(d) hereof or within the Protected Period, in Section 12(a) hereof, in which event the benefits and compensation provided for in Sections 10(d) or 12, as applicable, shall apply).
Voluntary Demotion An employee requesting a voluntary demotion from a higher-rated position and who is subsequently demoted to the lower-rated position, shall be paid on the increment step appropriate to the employee’s continuous service with the Employer. A voluntary demotion shall not change an employee’s anniversary date.
