An employee may be laid off if: 16.1.1 A position is being eliminated and the employee has the least seniority in the classification. 16.1.2 The employee has been displaced (bumped) by an employee whose position was eliminated. 16.2 A “reemployment right” is the right to the next vacant position in a classification ahead of any person who is not higher by greater seniority on the reemployment list and ahead of all new applicants. 16.3 A “reemployment list” is a list of the employees who have been laid off, arranged in ranked order from the greatest to least seniority in the classification from which they were laid off, plus higher classifications. 16.4 A “bumping right” is the right when actually facing layoff to displace an employee. Seniority 16.5 Length of service (seniority) shall be the only criterion used to effect layoffs. Length of service means first date of employment within the classification. 16.6 Seniority or length of service for layoff purposes shall be calculated on the basis of hire date in a particular classification plus higher classifications: 16.6.1 Time served prior to a break in service shall not be counted towards seniority, with the following exception: a break in service is disregarded and seniority credit for prior service is granted if an employee is reinstated, reemployed in regular status, or appointed to a regular position within 39 months after layoff while the employee’s name is on a reemployment list. 16.6.2 Time served as a substitute or short-term employee prior to regular appointment shall not count toward seniority in classification.
