Termination or Demotion Sample Clauses
The 'Termination or Demotion' clause defines the conditions under which an employee's employment may be ended or their position downgraded within an organization. Typically, this clause outlines the specific grounds for termination or demotion, such as poor performance, misconduct, or organizational restructuring, and may detail the procedures to be followed, including notice periods or severance entitlements. Its core practical function is to provide a clear framework for both employer and employee regarding the circumstances and process for ending or altering the employment relationship, thereby reducing uncertainty and potential disputes.
Termination or Demotion. An employee whose ability to perform assigned normal duties has been impaired either through senescence or through injury or illness may be demoted to a vacant position or be reclassified to a lower classification in the same department by the appointing power to a classification for which the employee is qualified and capable of performing. The employee shall be granted the same employment status in the lower class as the employee had in the higher class.

An employee demoted under this provision shall have the right to return to a vacant position in the employee’s former class and department within one (1) year from the date of the employee’s demotion.

The Personnel Director shall determine the appropriate classification. Such action may only occur within the demoting department. Written notice shall be given to an employee who is to be demoted not later than ten (10) working days prior to the date on which demotion is to become effective. Such notice shall be on a form prescribed by the Personnel Director and a copy of such notice shall be filed with him.
