So a junior employee got laid off today for lack of work. There were two less senior employees working yet he got laid off. So this is how it looked
Driver 1 <------ more seniority and laid off
Driver 2 ------ less seniority buy works
Driver 3 ------ less seniority but works
The reason management gave was that the 2 lower senior employees had bid on a route and couldn't be displaced.
However Article 46 Section 5 subsection B 1 & 2 reads:
(B) In the event of layoff of any full-time employee, the affected employee gas the right to exercise his/her seniority in the following manner:
1. Must displace the junior employee within their regular classification.
2. Any other junior full-time employee in another classification or part-time work.
Doesn't that mean he can bump the 2 lower senior drivers even if they have bid?
Any help would be appreciated.
