Approaching the Layoff Process - Classification • The department determines which classifications are to be affected as related to the functions the unit will rely on to survive.
Approaching the Layoff Process - Seniority • Seniority, for layoff purposes, is defined as points which are calculated based on full-time equivalent months (or hours) of University service. This means that an employee earns one seniority point for every month they work on a full-time basis. • Only employment while on pay status counts toward seniority. • Employees with more seniority stay and those with less are laid off, except . . .
Out of Seniority Order Justification Letter • Department must determine if there are any individuals who possess special skills, knowledge, or abilities to perform certain functions which are essential to the department’s survival and thus need to be retained regardless of seniority. • If an employee is retained with less seniority in the job title, then department must provide a “Memo of Out of Seniority Order Justification” to Camus Human Resources documenting the rationale used for retaining the “junior” employee.
