Common use of Regularization Clause in Contracts

Regularization. Nothing in Article 4 prohibits the College’s right to regularize any position as it deems necessary. Regularization is the process whereby an employee's term of appointment shall be revised from short-term to regular, continuous (full-time or proportional). To be eligible for regularization: a) a short-term employee must have worked two consecutive academic years immediately preceding regularization with an annual workload of fifty percent (50%) or greater in each of those years; and, b) There is a reasonable expectation of ongoing employment for which the faculty member is deemed qualified, at a workload of fifty percent (50%) or greater of an annual full-time workload in the next academic; and, c) The evaluations, if any, of the faculty member during the two consecutive academic years immediately preceding regularization have all been deemed satisfactory. A short-term employee who is eligible for regularization will be offered a regular appointment for the following academic year. The appointment proportion (of not less than fifty percent (50%)) will be based on the amount of work available in that year.
