Reduction of Work Force. When the board determines it is necessary to lay off employees due to lack of work, economic reasons, or student enrollment, probationary employees in the position where the reduction is to take place shall be the first laid off. Thereafter, the employee(s) with the least seniority shall be the first to be laid off, provided always that the remaining employees are available and can perform the required work. In recalling employees following a layoff, the laid off employee with the most seniority, when work is available again, shall be the first employee recalled. Prior to recalling a laid off employee, employees currently working, in order of seniority, shall first have the opportunity to fill any vacancy. Notice of recall shall be sent to the employee at his last known address on record with the District by registered or certified mail. Except for reasons of emergency, the District shall give at least ten (10) days notice prior to layoff to the affected employee(s).
