LAYOFFS AND RECALLS Sample Clauses
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. (a) Employees will be laid off in reverse order of seniority whenever there is a reduction of employees in the bargaining unit. The only exception to this provision is when the client requests in writing that a specific security guard be retained at their site. Guards can bump due to (1) loss of site, (2) being bumped by a senior guard, (3) client removal for non-disciplinary reasons, (4) return from approved leave of absence or (5) loss of position on a site.
(b) The Company shall notify employees whose position is to be eliminated due to the loss of work at a specific site or the loss of the entire site at least five (5) working days prior to the effective date of termination of the position. Such employee will be entitled to bump junior employees at other sites in order to maintain employment and status. The company will meet with the affected employee and their Union representative as quickly as possible after notification in order to allow the employee to review options and make an informed decision where they wish to bump into. The parties will attempt to place the security guard into an alternate site where said guard will not lose any days of pay, but in no event, will the placement, or bumping take more than five (5) working days (no more than five (5) unpaid days). If an employee is not slotted into their new position within said five (5) working days, the company will provide payment in lieu of work. During the up to five (5) days waiting period, the employee will be entitled to be on top of the spare board list if they so desire.
(c) The Company shall generally give notice of recall by registered mail to the last recorded address of the employee. The employee shall keep the Company informed of the employee's present address of location where he may be reached. The employee who fails to do so shall forfeit his right of recall.
(d) If, within one (1) calendar day from the receipt of such notice, the employee accepts the recall, the job will be held open for one (1) calendar day from the day of the employee's acceptance. In the event that such recalled employee is employed elsewhere at the time of recall, the Company will hold the position vacant for two (2) weeks if the Company has received appropriate advance notice from its client.
(e) In circumstances where the Company must fill vacant positions without delay, the Company shall give notice of recall by telephone until able to find a qualified employee who is prepared to report to work immediat...
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. Layoffs and recalls shall be based on the employee's seniority with the Employer within the Employer’s established bargaining units as defined in this Article. Hourly bargaining unit management employees shall not be bumped by non- management employees. In the event a store needs to lay off an employee, as opposed to a reduction in hours, the least senior employee in the affected job will be laid off but, if qualified, shall be given the option of displacing the least senior employee in the store (who shall be laid off unless such employees has one or more years of seniority in which case such employee shall be allowed to displace the least senior employee in the geographic area or bargaining unit, if qualified) or of accepting the layoff. Any employee who has been laid-off shall have their name placed on a preferential recall list for employment within their department and classification within the geographic area or bargaining unit. Such employee shall be obligated to accept the offer of employment when tendered or be removed from the preferential recall list. An employee who is removed from the preferential recall list will then be recalled under the regular terms as described in this Article. The Employer shall recall employees on layoff to the store from which they were laid off prior to hiring a new employee. Any employee recalled shall be required to report within seventy-two (72) hours after telephone notice or delivery or attempted delivery of notice by certified mail to the employee's last address on record. In the event of employee's failure to notify the Employer of his availability for work as provided herein, or in the event of failure to report as required herein after receipt of proper notice, the employee shall be considered as having terminated service with the Employer. Copies of recall notices will be simultaneously mailed to the Union. An employee being recalled from layoff shall not be required to complete another application for employment. The most senior full-time employee who has been reduced to part-time employment shall be offered the first full-time position that opens in the employee's store and classification, if qualified. If a part-time employee achieves full-time status within the store as provided herein where a more senior previously classified full-time employee in that store has been reduced to part-time status, the most senior employee within that store, department and classification shall be entitled to the full-time...
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. 13.01 Both Parties recognize that job security should increase in proportion to the length of service. Therefore, in the event of a layoff, employees shall be laid off in the reverse order of seniority. Employees shall be recalled in order of their seniority providing they are qualified to do the work.
13.02 A layoff shall be defined as a reduction in the workforce.
13.03 No new employees will be hired until those laid off have been given an opportunity of re- employment providing they are qualified to do the work, which is available within the bargaining unit.
13.04 The Corporation shall notify employees who are to be laid off by providing them with a minimum of five (5) working months’ notice before the layoff is to be effective. If the employee laid off has not had the opportunity to work five (5) months after the notice of layoff, they shall be paid in lieu of work for that part of the five (5) months during which work was not made available.
13.05 In order that the operations of the Union will not become disorganized when layoffs are being made, members of the Local Executive Board shall be the last persons laid off during their term of office as long as full-time work, which they are qualified to perform is available.
13.06 The Corporation’s decision on acceptance or denial of a bump shall be communicated in writing to affected employees and the Union within five (5) working days. An employee who has been served notice of layoff as outlined above shall bump the employee with the lowest seniority in the classification in which the employee has elected to bump based on their skill and ability to perform the work. No part-time or casual (grandfathered) employee shall displace a full-time employee in any classification.
13.07 An employee affected by layoff will be given an orientation and assessment period as deemed appropriate by the Corporation. Should the Corporation deem the employee unsatisfactory or unsuitable, the employee will be advised that they are to be laid off and will be allowed to exercise their bumping rights into another position. Such decision will not prejudice future consideration of the employee under a posted vacancy for the same position. Any other employee displaced as a result of the above rearrangements of positions shall be returned to their position without loss of seniority, benefits, or wage/salary. Should the employee find the new position unsatisfactory within thirty (30) working days, the employee will inform the Human R...

9.02 When the Employer recalls an employee who has been laid off, it shall notify such employee by telephone or registered letter addressed to the employee’s last known address. The employee concerned must notify the Employer within five (5) days of the telephone call or mailing of such letter stating his/her acceptance or refusal of the employment offered. If an employee fails to report for work within five (5) days of mailing of such notice but does report within thirty (30) days showing good cause for having failed within the five (5) days, he/she shall be notified of the next vacancy and his/her seniority shall be retained. Good cause shall be sickness, verified by the certificate of a medical practitioner, insufficient travelling time, or accident. The Union will be notified when a re-call notice is being issued.
9.03 Where an employee has been in the continuous service of the Employer for at least three (3) consecutive months, the Employer shall not lay off the employee without giving the employee at least the following notice or pay in lieu thereof:
(a) One week's written notice where his/her period of employment is more than three months but less than one year;
(b) Two weeks written notice where his/her period of employment is one year or more but less than three years;

(e) Eight weeks written notice where his/her period of employment is ten years or more.
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. During layoffs or reductions in the working force, the employee with the least seniority in the job classification affected shall be laid off first. When the working force is again increased, employees on layoff shall be recalled in the order of their job classification seniority, unless circumstances have occurred during the layoff which make them disqualified. Ability to perform the work available shall be a determining factor in following the principle that the last employee laid off will be the first employee rehired.
LAYOFFS AND RECALLS. 11.01 When, in the opinion of the Employer, a reduction of the workforce is necessary, probationary employees and students shall be laid off first. If further reductions are necessary the Employer shall be guided by the following considerations (not necessarily in this order):
a. Length of service of the employee
b. The productivity of the employee
c. The ability of the employee
d. Willingness to travel of the employee
11.02 The Employer agrees to notify the Union (Xxxxxxx or Representative) of the names of employees laid off within the pay period of the date during which the layoff occurred.
