[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 1518187, member: 8481"] It sounds like these air runs are part time. If you are laid off in the Central, you have 4 options. 1. Bump the least senior FT employee, in any classification you were previously qualified for, as long as you have more seniority. 2. Bump 1 or 2 part timers, as long as you have more company seniority. This will at least keep your insurance active. 3. After a week of layoff, you can bump to another building in your local's jurisdiction. 4. Take the layoff. [B]Central Region Supplement Article 3 Section 5-Full-time Employees In the event of a layoff of a full-time employee, he/she shall have the right to displace the least senior full-time employee in any classification, for which they were previously qualified, to remain in his/her center. Previously qualified is defined as having regularly performed said work sometime during the previous eighteen (18) months. [/B] [B]In the event the employee has not been qualified in any classification, he/she may exercise their rights as per Article 3, Section 6 or exercise their right to bump to another center as outlined below. When an employee is laid off for one (1) week or more, he/she may, on the following Monday, exercise his/her Company-wide seniority to displace the employee having the least seniority in any other center within the jurisdiction of the local union, provided he/she is qualified to perform the job of such junior employee. It is the employee’s responsibility to notify the Company of his/her intention on the previous Friday. His/Her seniority shall be dovetailed at such center and he/she shall remain there until work is restored at their original center. Work restored is defined as the necessity for another permanent employee in the original center in their classification. This Section shall supersede the six-for-one provision elsewhere in this Agreement. Recalls and restoration of forces shall be in the reverse order of layoff. In all cases of layoffs, reduction of forces, recalls and restoration of forces, an affected employee shall select his/her desired classification immediately in order to meet service commitments. Further, in all cases, an employee must be qualified to perform the duties of the job selected. [/B] [B]A laid-off employee shall be given two (2) weeks’ notice of recall if the employee is laid off two (2) weeks or more. The employee must notify the Employer within three (3) days after receipt thereof, as to whether or not he/she intends to report for work at the designated time. Failure to give timely notice to the Employer or to report at the agreedupon time within the designated period will result in the loss of all seniority rights and the employee will be considered terminated. Full-time combination employees will work their bid job when work is available. It is understood that daily adjustments can be made to ensure all work assignments are covered. Employees will work as directed when work is not available in the employees regular assigned job. When combination employees are temporarily moved off his/her job it shall be by total company seniority from those employees qualified and available, in the immediate work area. Total company seniority will be used when staffing reductions are necessary within a work area that consists of full-time and part-time employees. This language will not supersede current local agreements. Section 6 Laid-off, full-time seniority employees, in the order of their seniority, may elect to take the work of one (1) or two (2) part-time employees, for the duration of the layoff, provided they have more total Company seniority. In such cases, the full-time employees shall be guaranteed a minimum of three and one-half (3 1/2) hours work at the prevailing rate of pay for the classification of work he/she performs, or the rate of pay per Article 41, Section 3, which ever rate is higher, in addition to all fringe benefits. Employees who have not completed progression shall be paid in accordance with the progression scale in Article 41, Section 3 or their prevailing inside rate whichever is higher. Article 40 employees will be paid in accordance with Article 40, Section 6. If a full-time employee bumps two part-time employees, said full-time employee shall receive time-and-one-half after eight (8) hours of work. After thirty (30) working days in a ninety (90) calendar day period under this provision, a full-time employee may elect to bump the least senior fulltime employee in his/her building, excluding automotive, maintenance mechanics and feeder drivers, and have up to thirty (30) calendar days to qualify for said full-time position. If a laid-off, fulltime employee elects to take a layoff rather than exercise his/her right to displace a part-time employee, he/she shall be considered a laid-off employee for lack of work for the purpose of unemployment compensation.[/B] [/QUOTE]
