TEMPORARY REDUCTIONS Clause Samples

The Temporary Reductions clause allows for a short-term decrease in certain obligations or payments under a contract, typically in response to specific events or circumstances. For example, this clause might permit a party to reduce service levels or payment amounts for a defined period if they encounter unforeseen operational disruptions or regulatory changes. Its core practical function is to provide flexibility and relief to parties facing temporary challenges, helping them manage risk and maintain the contractual relationship without resorting to breach or termination.
TEMPORARY REDUCTIONS. The work week shall not be less than thirty-two (32) hours, consisting of four (4) eight (8) hour days, for a period of not longer than six (6) weeks and then the Company and the Union shall meet to consider the advisability of continuing the thirty-two (32) hour week or reducing the number of employees according to seniority. This clause does not apply to a temporary reduction in a certain department or work cell due to lack of work, shortage of material, overstock or temporary setback of production. A temporary reduction in a department will be of definite duration, not to exceed one (1) week, in which case employees will be placed on layoff status, without invoking Article V, Section E. Should the temporary reduction exceed one (1) week, the Company and Union shall meet to discuss the advisability of reducing the work force according to Article V, Section E.
