Common use of Rules Governing Lines of Progression Clause in Contracts

Rules Governing Lines of Progression. Job progression is based on the principle that all permanent employees can progress systematically from the bottom job in a department to the more senior positions according to their seniority within each classification. Once a permanent move has been established, the most senior employee next in line for promotion in the line of progression, if working on the same shift as where the permanent vacancy exists, shall automatically take the move. If the most senior employee is not working on the same shift as where the permanent vacancy exists, then that employee will be first to be asked if they want to move to the shift where the permanent vacancy (promotion) exists. If that person refuses the move to the open shift then the person next in line for promotion on the shift where the vacancy exists shall automatically take the move up. Although the senior person refuses the move because they do not want to cross shifts, they will not be considered frozen in their present position. However, the employee who has taken the promotion shall remain ahead of the person who refused the promotion shall remain ahead of the person who refused the promotion from that position upward.
