Displacement and Recall Clause Samples
The Displacement and Recall clause governs the process by which employees may be temporarily removed from their positions (displaced) and subsequently brought back (recalled) based on operational needs or changes in workforce requirements. Typically, this clause outlines the criteria for selecting which employees are displaced, such as seniority or qualifications, and details the procedures for notifying and reinstating affected employees when positions become available again. Its core function is to provide a fair and transparent framework for managing workforce adjustments, ensuring both organizational flexibility and employee rights during periods of staffing changes.
Displacement and Recall. 4.1 Except as otherwise provided when a permanently established employee is displaced or his/her position is abolished, he/she must, if his/her seniority entitles him/her thereto, displace the junior permanently established employee, or the junior temporarily established employee, in the order named or, at his/her option, work spare.
4.2 Except as otherwise provided, when a temporarily established employee is displaced, or his/her position is abolished, he/she must, if his/her seniority entitles him/her thereto, displace the junior temporarily established employee or work spare.
