Elimination of Bargaining Unit Jobs Clause Samples
The Elimination of Bargaining Unit Jobs clause defines the employer's right and process for discontinuing positions that are represented by a union or bargaining unit. Typically, this clause outlines the circumstances under which jobs may be eliminated, such as organizational restructuring, technological changes, or economic necessity, and may specify notice requirements, severance provisions, or reassignment opportunities for affected employees.
