The list will show name, position and date from which each employee's seniority is accumulated. The Company shall provide the accredited Representative and the Local Chairperson with copies of each list. Where an employee has only held seniority in one seniority section for more than fifteen years and their job has been abolished, they may use their seniority to displace in any seniority section where they are qualified.
