Training Objectives & Agenda Purpose To provide the necessary information concerning employee layoffs, separations, re-employment and benefits Agenda Employee Classifications Civil Service Statute and Rules Seniority Lay off & bumping Recall and re-employment Administrative Staff Administrative Professional Staff Employee Benefits Summary Unemployment Insurance Benefits

Employee Classifications Civil Service Open Range (Non Represented) Represented Administrative Staff (Non Represented) Term Appointment Continuous Appointment Administrative Professional Staff (Represented)

Civil Service Seniority Amount of time worked in a class or classification series Accumulates upon completion of probationary period and dates back to the day of original employment in the class Once earned in a classification, it is retained during any period of continuous employment

Civil Service Seniority-Accumulation (Basic Components) Seniority is earned by classification and/or classification series Seniority earned in a higher classification in a promotional line is added to seniority in a lower class in the same promotional line Seniority earned in a lower classification cannot be counted towards seniority in a higher classification Seniority is accumulated during a layoff caused by a break in the academic calendar or during any layoff not in excess of 30 consecutive work days

Civil Service Layoff Typically, specific positions and/or classifications are targeted for elimination or reduction Within a specific class, the order of layoff is first determined by employment status Probationary employees are laid off before status employees Status employees are then laid off based on service and seniority starting with the least senior employee in a particular classification Status employees subject to layoff will receive a minimum of a 30-day notice prior to layoff action

Civil Service Layoff and Seniority Rights Employees subject to layoff have the opportunity to exercise their seniority rights and displace an employee in the classification or classification series with less seniority Employees cannot choose a specific employee or position when exercising their seniority rights Employees must bump the least senior person in the classification An employee in a position with an authorized specialty factor may not be bumped by another employee with greater seniority unless the employee with greater seniority possesses the same specialized certification

Gloria 5 years Office Administrator Donte 4 years Office Administrator (and lower classifications in the series) 2 years Office Manager (6 years total for Office Manager) Cindy 7 years Office Manager Donna 5 years Office Support Specialist Gloria’s position is eliminated Gloria can exercise seniority rights and displace Donte (Office Administrator) Donte does not have enough seniority to displace Cindy, however he does have enough seniority to displace Donna (Office Support Specialist) Donte will be placed on the Reemployment Register for the Office Administrator and the Office Manager Donna will be placed on the Reemployment Register for Office Support Specialist Civil Service Seniority Rights (Example)

Tamika 3 years Business Manager I Bill 1 year Business Manager I 4 years Accountant II (and lower classifications in series – Accountant I) Chris 5 years Accountant II 7 years (total) Accountant I Darla 2 years Accountant I Tamika’s position is eliminated Tamika can exercise seniority rights and displace Bill (Business Manager I) Bill does not have enough seniority to displace Chris, however he does have enough seniority to displace Darla (Accountant I) Bill will be placed on the Reemployment Register for the Business Manager I and the Accountant II Darla will be placed on the Reemployment Register for the Accountant Civil Service Seniority Rights (Example)

Civil Service Employment Register Maintenance Registers are maintained by classification Applicants/employees are placed on registers by their highest score and/or service time For appointment purposes, types of registers shall have precedence as follows: Re-Employment Promotional Original Entry

Civil Service Re-Employment Registers Contain the names of status employees laid off through a reduction in force Employees listed by seniority earned in the applicable classification An employee on this register must be appointed to a vacancy in the classification

Civil Service Layoff and Reemployment Registers Whenever it becomes necessary to reemploy one or more employees in a class, the employee last laid off by seniority should be reemployed first, and further reemployment shall be made in the order of seniority until the reemployment register for that class is exhausted. No available employee should be on the Reemployment Register with greater seniority than an employee working in the same class or in a lower class in which the employee has accrued seniority; unless the employee has chosen not to exercise bumping rights and provided a signed statement to that effect An employee may turn down three employment opportunities before being removed from the Reemployment Register

Civil Service Employment Recalls An employee who goes on layoff status during the probationary period may, upon written request of the employer, be reinstated by the Executive Director on either the original entry or promotional register, as appropriate, in accordance with total service earned as of the date of the layoff and may be appointed thereafter to the same or similar position The reinstated employee should complete the probationary period for the class in which eligibility has been established, although his/her service may be interrupted by one or more layoffs A probationary employee does not have recall rights
