employee groups defined below possess the referenced layoff rights. Prior to the layoff of any full -time or permanent part-time employees, hourly part -time and /or temporary employees within the same classification, will be released. Definitions Permanent Part -time Employees: Hourly employees working a fixed- weekly schedule for a minimum of 1,000 hours a fiscal year for two consecutive fiscal years. Full -time Employees: Regular hourly employees scheduled to work 2080 hours in a fiscal year. Special Considerations • Layoffs will be conducted by classification in the following order: "Permanent part-time" employees and then full -time employees. • A full -time employee whose position has been identified for elimination may, in lieu of layoff, bump another full -time employee with less seniority in that classification and then in previously held classifications. If no such position exists, the affected employee may bump a "permanent pan -time employee" regardless of relative seniority within the same or previously - served classification. • Ties in seniority within the same classification shall be first broken by City -wide seniority and then by lot. • Notice of potential layoff shall be delivered personally to an affected employee or be sent by mail and confirmed through the "Certificate of Mailing" process. • "Permanent part- time" employees who become full -time employees, without a break in service, in the same classification will receive seniority credit for time served in such status on an hour- for -hour basis converted to yearly service credit upon their appointment to the full -time classification. • "Permanent part- time" employee seniority shall be calculated based on the total number of hours worked in the classification. The calculation of service credit for "permanent part - time employees" will be determined by the number of paid hours worked through the last pay period 30 days prior to the date of layoff. • Hours worked in a temporary employee capacity will not be counted for seniority purposes except where the employee converted from a temporary to permanent status in the same classification with no break in service. • Employees shall not be credited with time spent in non -paid status except for Voluntary Time Off, military leave as otherwise prescribed by law, or as mutually agreed to by the parties. • Former Refuse Collector employees shall carry over seniority to lower -level classifications but will not carry over seniority upon promotion to higher level maintenance classifications. • Seniority credit shall only be credited for time spent in a position represented by SLCEA, Local 21. Bumping to lower -level positions where the displaced employee held previous status shall only occur for service rendered within the bargaining unit. The appointing authority may lay off an employee in the cofnpet+tive service because of material change in duties or organization, or shortage of work or funds. When, there are more employees in any class in the full -time competitive services than there are available positions, the employee with the least seniority in the class shall be laid off. 16
