Breaking Seniority Clause Samples
The 'Breaking Seniority' clause establishes the conditions under which the usual order of priority among creditors or stakeholders can be altered. Typically, this clause allows certain parties to receive payment or exercise rights ahead of others who would normally have seniority, such as in the case of restructuring, refinancing, or specific triggering events. By defining exceptions to the standard hierarchy, the clause provides flexibility in managing obligations and can facilitate negotiations or transactions that might otherwise be blocked by strict adherence to seniority. Its core function is to enable parties to override established priority rules when necessary, thereby addressing potential deadlocks or enabling more efficient resolution of financial arrangements.

An employee who fails to receive the notice, and is not otherwise aware of his recall, and therefore does not report to work within twenty (20) calendar days shall continue to accrue seniority, but there shall be no further duty to recall the employee until the employee notifies the Company of his current mailing address.
