Displacement Rights (Bumping). 23.1.1 A permanent employee who is to be laid off may exercise displacement rights (i.e., bumping) within any classification in which the employee attained permanency and holds seniority credit greater than an incumbent. The employee to be displaced shall be the one with the least seniority in the class plus higher classes. In the event that two or more classified employees have the same seniority date within the classification, the advantage shall go to the employee with the greatest overall seniority in the District. If that date is also the same, the employee with the longest total service to the District shall have the advantage. If the total service to the District is the same, the advantage will be decided by lot. 23.1.2 A permanent employee may exercise displacement rights in the following order: 1. Move into a vacancy in the current or previously held classification with equal hours, if available. If not available, then; 2. Displace the least senior employee in the current or previously held classification with equal hours, if available. If not available, then; 3. Displace the least senior employee in the current or previously held classification whose number of hours most closely approximates the laid off employee’s hours in the classification from which they are being laid off.
