Volunteers For Layoff. An employee who occupies a position within a class within a department affected by a layoff and/or displacement may volunteer to be laid off in place of another employee who has fewer retention points and who would otherwise be laid off. Such employee shall be entitled to the same rights and restoration privileges as other employees in accordance with this Article.
Volunteers For Layoff. If an employee who is not on the layoff list volunteers to be laid off, it may be possible for a person on the layoff list to “swap” with the volunteer. The union-management case management team will work in coordination to identify possible swaps, to determine if a swap can be arranged, and to facilitate swaps as quickly as possible. We will endeavor to complete swaps within the notice and income security periods. This process will be highly coordinated between SHARE and UMass Memorial to ensure efficiency and communication. If a swap is made, the volunteer will be eligible for the full severance package and training fund as though he/she had been on the layoff list, even if the swap takes place after the notice and income security period. The volunteer may apply for other jobs at UMass Memorial as an internal candidate, but will not have the hiring preference or recall rights of a person originally on the layoff list.
Volunteers For Layoff. If an employee who is not on the layoff list volunteers to be laid off, it may be possible for a person on the layoff list to “swap” with the volunteer. The union and management will work together to identify possible swaps, to determine if a swap can be arranged, and to facilitate swaps as quickly as possible. Whether a swap is approved depends on several considerations, including, but not limited to, operational needs and qualifications of the employees. • We will endeavor to complete swaps within the notice period, however the notice period can be extended by mutual agreement of union and management. • If a swap is made, the volunteer will be eligible for the full severance package as though he/she had been on the layoff list. The volunteer may apply for other jobs at Marlborough Hospital as an internal candidate, but will not have the hiring preference or recall rights of a person originally on the layoff list.

This process will be highly coordinated between SHARE and UMass Memorial to ensure efficiency and communication. We recognize from time to time there may be a swap in process as the 4 week notice period comes to an end. As such, SHARE and UMass Memorial will meet during the 4th week of the notice period to determine if any swap work currently in process will not be completed by the end of the notice period. Together, we will determine the appropriate course of action, timeline necessary to complete the work and treat the situation as an exception to the general practice. In any case that may extend the regular notice period, both SHARE and UMass Memorial will agree on both the number of exceptions and the process up front and before the conclusion of the 4 week notice period. • If a swap is made, the volunteer will be eligible for the full severance package and training fund as though he/she had been on the layoff list, even if the swap takes place after the notice period. The volunteer may apply for other jobs at UMMMC as an internal candidate, but will not have the hiring preference or recall rights of a person originally on the layoff list.
