Election by Protected Employee. Where a Protected Employee is eligible for protections under both this award term B.5 and another contractual or statutory arrangement, the Protected Employee shall elect between the protection under this award term B.5 and protection under such other arrangement. After such an election, the Protected Employee shall be protected only by the arrangement that they elect. The Protected Employee shall not be entitled to any protection or benefit (regardless of whether such benefit is duplicative) under the arrangement that they do not elect. However, if the elected protection expires pursuant to the terms of the arrangement that governs the elected protection, the Protected Employee is entitled to protection under the arrangement not originally elected for the remainder, if any, of the Protective Period.
