Common use of Voluntary Separation Clause in Contracts

Voluntary Separation. Each employee shall give the District at least two (2) weeks’ notice of their intention to terminate. The District will direct its contracted benefits administrator to provide the employee with notice of any eligibility for benefits following termination. Failure of the employee to give such notice shall not constitute a breach of contract by the Union. If an employee is absent for three (3) consecutive workdays without notifying the District as to the reason for their absence, then said employee shall be considered as having voluntarily terminated. An employee may be reinstated without penalty if, in the judgment of the Human Resources administrator, there are extenuating circumstances which made it impossible to notify the District as to the reason for the absence.
