Common use of Substitute Procedures Clause in Contracts

Substitute Procedures. Under the terms of this agreement, all attempts for temporary or long term substitutes will be made first from the actively employed staff at the time of an opening regardless of classification. If placing an active employee into a substitute position cases another opening, then that opening will be filled first from active staff if available and so on until all positions requiring substitutes are filled from active staff. In the event that a position remains open or unfilled from within the active staff, the following procedures shall be upheld: A. A displaced or laid-off employee who has indicated in writing to the Superintendent on an annual basis by September 1st that he/she would like to be considered for substitute work shall be placed on a substitute priority list and then given the next opportunity for substitute work if there is more than twenty-four (24) hours notice of the need for a substitute. B. A displaced of laid-off employee, if following the procedure as described in subsection A above, shall remain on this substitute priority list until such employee turns down three (3) opportunities for such substitute work within a one (1) school semester time period. In the event that such employee rejects or does not respond within twelve (12) hours on three opportunities for substitute work, this employee shall be removed from the substitute priority list until the next academic school calendar year. C. A displaced or laid-off employee who has already committed to a substitute position or positions on the same day/date, then that prior commitment renders that person ineligible for work until said commitment is satisfied and no further request to fill a position with that person is required.
