The Recall from Layoff Eligibility List will have precedence over all other Eligibility Lists. 2. Laid off employees on Recall from Layoff Eligibility Lists will be considered eligible for in-house recruitment within the City for a period of twenty-four (24) months. Such employees will be recalled in the reverse order of layoff. 3. Should a probationary employee be laid off for a period of time longer than they worked for the City and are subsequently rehired, they will be required to serve a full one (1) year probationary period. If rehired before that timeframe, they will be given previous credit towards the completion of their probationary period. Employees laid off for six (6) months or more will be subject to a background check. 4.
