Common use of Ongoing Work Clause in Contracts

Ongoing Work. Employees on layoff will be recalled to work of an ongoing nature on the basis of last-off, first-on, provided that the employees being recalled have the capabilities and qualifications to perform the work available. Employees shall receive seven (7) calendar days’ notice of recall by registered mail. The employee shall keep the Employer advised at all times of her current address. Laid off employees failing to report to work of a regular nature within seven (7) calendar days of the date of receipt of the written notice, will be considered as having abandoned their right to re-employment. An exception would be where the employee is obligated to give more than seven (7) calendar days’ notice to the employee's current employment, or where the employee can provide satisfactory reason for not reporting within the seven (7) day period. Satisfactory reason is in the opinion of the Employer and will not be considered after thirty (30) days of the date of recall.
