Common use of Selection for the Program Clause in Contracts

Selection for the Program. (Applies to SB1, SC1, SD1, and SI1) Each time the City offers the Program, the City shall train a maximum of twenty-five (25) eligible unit members. The City shall notify Oakland Public Works (OPW) and Department of Transportation (DOT) unit members at least two weeks prior to each Program. If fewer than twenty-five (25) OPW and/or DOT unit members apply for the Program, the City shall offer it to unit members in Parks and Recreation and may offer it to unit members in other City departments and agencies, including the Port of Oakland. If more than twenty-five (25) OPW and DOT unit members apply for the Program, the City shall select unit members on the basis of job classification seniority. If a unit member applies for and is selected for the Program, but does not begin the Program, the City shall select another eligible unit member for the Program. If a unit member begins the training and, for whatever reason, drops out prior to completion, the City will have no obligation to select another unit member for the Program. If more than twenty (20) eligible unit members apply, those not selected shall receive a written statement of the reason(s) they were not selected.
