Qualifications and Seniority. Awarding a position in a new classification and/or a position in another department will be based on qualifications and if qualifications are substantially equal, seniority will be the determining factor. In the case of an employee who has received a final warning or suspension for either gross misconduct or a major violation of the work rules within the six (6) month period immediately preceding the posting of the open and available position, management may determine not to award the position to said employee, whom may be otherwise be qualified.
