Voluntary Layoff Program Sample Clauses

Voluntary Layoff Program. In the event a mandatory layoff is authorized by the Board of Supervisors and as Department Heads begin having layoff discussions with staff, the Department Head may consider accepting the voluntary layoff of a permanent employee with more seniority. Such senior employee may request to voluntarily layoff to the extent of displacing a more junior employee with less seniority. Such senior employee must be in permanent status and employed in the department that is conducting the layoff. The Department Head in conjunction with the HR Director has final approval authority on a case-by-case basis, without regard to seniority or outcome for persons in same classification. Upon approval of a voluntary layoff request, the employee may not withdraw the request and must proceed to be laid off. The employee who volunteers shall not have bumping or seniority rights in regard to the voluntary layoff being conducted. Upon voluntary layoff, the employee is subject to all rights and procedures as are applied to employees who are laid off from County service (except with regard to bumping rights). Seniority will remain intact in regard to all other purposes including restoration. When an official announcement regarding layoff is made and it is determined that voluntary layoffs will be considered, Department Heads may accept and consider voluntary layoffs (on a case by case basis).
