of the layoff by the employing agency. A list of all current non-bargaining
unit vacancies of all positions within the agency shall be provided to the
merit compensation system/broad-banded employee with the notice of layoff. If
any bargaining unit vacancy remains after all contractual obligations are
fulfilled, those bargaining unit vacancies may be offered to non-bargaining
unit staff to minimize the impact of the layoff. Vacancy for any employee
subject to layoff is defined as the current, funded, vacant position that
management has the present intention to fill. Unless extraordinary operating
conditions or events are specified in the proposed layoff plan, no
indeterminate layoff shall be effective until ten working days after the
Director's approval of the layoff plan.
