Filling of Vacancies 150 - The Employer will fill vacancies on a seniority basis first within the occupational group with employees who possess the minimum qualifications for the classification under consideration. If there are no qualified bidders or no bidders from within the occupational group, the Employer will select the most senior applicant in the bargaining unit who possesses the minimum qualifications of the classification. An unsatisfactory MSU employment record may be a proper per cause for denial of consideration for a vacancy. 151 - Vacancies will be posted for a period of seven (7) calendar days in a conspicuous place in the employee's work areas. All postings will state the classification, rate of pay, starting time, shift, location, and minimum qualifications. A copy of the Position Vacancy Notice will be provided to the Union when it is available. Employees must apply for vacancies by submitting the Employee Request for Consideration for Support Staff Position Vacancy to the Office of Human Resource Services by the closing date specified on the Position Vacancy Notice. 152 - Postings shall remain posted for seven (7) calendar days before the vacancy is filled. The Employer will notify the Union, in writing, of the name of the employee selected to fill a vacancy, stating his/her seniority date and title of the classification. Temporary transfers may be used, if necessary, during the posting period. 153 - A vacancy may not be filled from a posting ninety (90) calendar days or more after the posting expiration date. The vacancy must be reposted if it is to be filled. 154 - If it should become necessary in filling a vacancy to bypass an employee's seniority, reasons for denial shall be given in writing to such employee with a copy to the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of the district. 155 - An employee who is promoted, transferred or demoted must satisfactorily complete a trial period of 520 hours of work. Prior to the expiration of this period, either the Employer or the employee may declare the trial period unsatisfactory, and the employee shall return to his/her former position at his/her former pay rate, classification, and shift. If the Employer determines an employee is unsatisfactory in the new position, notice and reasons shall be submitted to the employee in writing by the Employer with a copy to the Union. The matter may then become a proper subject for the grievance procedure. 156 - During the trial period, employees will receive the regular rate of the job they are performing. 157 - An employee who bids on a vacancy that is posted under this section and is subsequently selected and placed in the vacancy shall remain assigned to it for three (3) months following the 520 hours of work trial period before becoming eligible to bid on another posted vacancy. 158 - If an employee is temporarily assigned to a job with a higher maximum rate, and he/she is capable of doing the job, he/she shall receive an increase of ten (10) cents per hour, or the starting rate, whichever is greater, but in no event shall he/she be paid more than the maximum rate of the job to which he/she is temporarily assigned. If the temporary assignment in a higher classification is for three (3) hours or more, the employee will receive the increase in pay for eight (8) hours. An employee who is assigned on a temporary basis to a job in a lower pay grade shall have his/her hourly pay rate maintained. This section shall not be used to circumvent the posting requirement as stated in this article. 159 - If an employee is temporarily assigned to work as a supervisor for eight (8) consecutive hours or more, he/she shall receive, in addition to his/her regular pay, one dollar ($1.00) per hour differential compensation. Such differential compensation will not increase the hourly base rate. 160 - The procedures for filling vacancies may be bypassed for the following situations: a. Employees drawing Workers' Compensation benefits for any position at their former or lower compensation grade levels, the duties of which they are able to perform, provided that during their absence they did not become subject to layoff. b. Former seniority employees who have filed for unemployment compensation. 161 - The parties recognize the Employer's commitment to and program for Affirmative Action. To that end the parties agree to cooperate to the extent possible for the achievement of the Affirmative Action objective. When it is necessary to fill vacancies for Affirmative action purposes, such action must be proven under the provision of the Affirmative action plan of the Employer. The University and the Union will meet to discuss any problems associated with the filling of vacancies for affirmative action purposes. Following discussion, the action may be permitted.
Felling of trees The Authority shall assist the Contractor in obtaining the Applicable Permits for felling of trees in non-forest area to be identified by the Authority for this purpose if, and only if, such trees cause a Material Adverse Effect on the construction or maintenance of the Project Highway. The Contractor shall fell these trees as per the Permits obtained. The cost of such felling shall be borne by the Authority and in the event of any delay in felling thereof for reasons beyond the control of the Contractor; it shall be excused for failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder if such failure is a direct consequence of delay in the felling of trees. The Parties hereto agree that the felled trees shall be deemed to be owned by the Authority and shall be disposed in such manner and subject to such conditions as the Authority may in its sole discretion deem appropriate. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that if any felling of trees hereunder is in a forest area, the Applicable Permit thereof shall be procured by the Authority within the time specified in the Agreement.
