Common use of Waiver of Reinstatement Rights Clause in Contracts

Waiver of Reinstatement Rights. 15.6.2.1 Upon receiving notice of layoff, the employee shall have the option to waive reinstatement rights to a vacancy that has a work-year duration (as defined in Article 7.7) that is different from the employee’s work year at the time of the layoff. (For example, an employee who has been notified of layoff from a position with a ten [10] month work year may waive reinstatement rights to a vacancy that has a twelve [12] month work year.
