When the Employer determines the positions affected, it will notify the employee holding positions subject to layoff, and advise them of any vacant positions (taking precedence over posting policy). If vacancies exist within same position/classification, same shift, and same scheduled hours, within 24 hours those employees must elect to take a vacant position or accept layoff.
