Bumping Rules Sample Clauses
The "Bumping Rules" clause defines the procedures and conditions under which an employee with greater seniority may displace, or "bump," another employee with less seniority in the event of layoffs, job eliminations, or workforce reductions. Typically, this clause outlines the order of seniority, the positions eligible for bumping, and any qualifications or restrictions that apply, such as requiring the senior employee to be qualified for the new position. Its core practical function is to protect employees with longer service by giving them priority in retaining employment, thereby providing a fair and transparent process for workforce adjustments.
