Continuation of Seniority Clause Samples
The Continuation of Seniority clause ensures that an employee's length of service, or seniority, is preserved under specific circumstances, such as transfers, mergers, or re-employment after a break. In practice, this means that if an employee moves to a different department within the same organization or is rehired after a layoff, their previous years of service are counted towards benefits like vacation accrual, promotions, or redundancy calculations. This clause is essential for protecting employees from losing accrued rights and benefits due to organizational changes or temporary interruptions in employment, thereby promoting fairness and continuity in employment relationships.
