7.6 Reemployment <br /> 7.6.1 The names of workers laid off shall be placed on a reemployment list from most senior to least <br /> senior. The worker with the greatest seniority on the reemployment list, including those who <br /> exercised their bumping rights or who took a voluntary demotion, shall be offered reinstatement in <br /> a vacant classification with equal or less base salary compared to the classification from which the <br /> employee was laid off for which said worker meets the minimum qualifications. In the event the <br /> worker refuses two (2) offers of reemployment, said worker's name shall be removed from the <br /> reemployment list. The worker's name shall not be removed from the reemployment list if said <br /> worker refuses reemployment into a classification that is lower than the highest classification held <br /> by the worker. In hiring for a vacant position in a classification, such reemployment list shall take <br /> precedence over all other employment lists. (See Section 7.10 Promotional Exams regarding <br /> promotional opportunities while on a reemployment list). <br /> 7.6.2 Any worker who accepts an offer of reemployment to the highest classification he/she would have <br /> been entitled to at the time of layoff shall have his/her name removed from the reemployment list. <br /> 7.6.3 Any worker who is laid off and is subsequently eligible for reemployment shall be notified by the <br /> City in writing, sent by certified mail to the last address given the City by the worker, of any <br /> vacancies for which he/she is eligible. Workers so notified shall respond within seven (7) working <br /> days of the date notice was sent. Copies of all such reemployment notices together with a listing of <br /> workers to whom they were sent shall be sent to the Union. <br /> 7.6.4 The names of workers who exercise their right to bump into a classification as provided in Articles <br /> 7.5.1, 7.5.2 or 7.5.3, and the names of workers whose layoff results in unemployment from the City <br /> shall remain on a reemployment list for a period of two (2) years. This two (2) year period shall <br /> commence upon the date the worker begins his/her service in the lower/lateral classification into <br /> which he/she bumped as defined in Articles 7.5.1, 7.5.2 or 7.5.3, or upon the date unemployment <br /> from the City begins. <br /> 7.6.5 Any worker rehired as defined in Article 7.6 shall serve a probationary period of no more than <br /> twelve (12) months, unless the reemployed worker has prior service in the classification into which <br /> he/she is being rehired, or is rehired into a classification in their job family at the time of layoff, as <br /> listed in Appendix A. <br /> 7.7 Retirement in Lieu of Layoff <br /> Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any worker who was subject to being, or was in fact, laid off for <br /> lack of work or lack of funds and who elected service retirement from the Public Employees' Retirement <br /> System shall be placed on an appropriate reemployment list. The City shall notify the Board of <br /> Administration of the Public Employees' Retirement System of the fact that retirement was due to layoff for <br /> lack of work or funds. If he/she is subsequently subject to reemployment and accepts, in writing, the <br /> appropriate vacant position, the City shall maintain the vacancy until the Board of Administration of the <br /> Public Employees' Retirement System has properly processed his/her request for reinstatement from <br /> retirement. <br /> 7.8 Benefits During Layoff <br /> Workers whose layoff results in unemployment from the City shall not accrue any benefits, including, but not <br /> 10 <br />
