Staff Reduction definition

Staff Reduction is defined: a) for references to layoff, to mean reducing the number of a specifically licensed position within the District, and b) for references to the placement process, to mean reducing the number of a specifically licensed position in a specific building or program.
Staff Reduction means reduction, namely future permanent cut of certain job places from the approved payroll of the workers and the employees. Upon staff reduction it is obligatory to state the name and the number of reduced job positions, which and how many of the existing job positions – jobs on the payroll – shall be cut. The reasons for such staff reduction can be versatile. The existence of these reasons shall lie upon the discretion of the employer. It is a question of feasibility consideration and effective performance of the industrial and civil service activities of the undertaking. From a legal point of view it is crucial, with regard to the lawfulness of the dismissal, that the reduction of the respective payroll jobs, i.e. the labour obligations it implies, is real. Subject to control by court shall be only the dismissal performed on the grounds of such staff reduction. On the other hand, it is necessary that the staff reduction is undertaken pursuant to the adopted terms and provisions – by the person or the competent authority entitled to make such changes in the payroll, and that such staff reduction is performed prior to the dismissal. From the point of view of these basic requirements, there is no staff reduction whenever the respective labour function is not cut effectively, while only changing its name. In these cases there is fictitious staff reduction and it cannot be considered to be grounds for dismissal of the respective worker or employee.
