(b) Once each quarter, IT Department bargaining unit employees will be afforded an op- portunity to volunteer to be placed on a roster for"on call"status and to carry a pager. IT Depart- ment bargaining unit employees who elect not to so volunteer will not be eligible for any scheduled overtime for the duration of the quarter in question. (c) Employees who volunteer for"on call" status, but who fail to respond to a page or call during such status, will not be subject to discipline; provided that, such employee has notified his or her immediate supervisor of any change in status prior to having been called for duty. (d) A minimum of four (4) hours of overtime pay shall be paid to any employee who is designated as on call. Overtime hours worked would be counted toward the four(4) hours. ARTICLE 8 SENIORITY Section 1. Except as defined elsewhere in the contract, seniority shall, for the purposes of the agreement, be defined as an employee's continuous length of service since the date of acceptance with the City in a position covered by this agreement. Seniority for full-time employ- ees is determined by their ranking on the Civil Service register when more than one individual begins employment in the same classification on the same day. Section 2. A classified employee who takes a non-classified position shall have his/her classified seniority stop. If the non-classified employee returns to the classified service, his/her seniority will continue less the time spent in the non-classified position. ARTICLE 9 VACANCIES, PROMOTIONS, TRANSFERS AND ASSIGNMENTS Section 1. Vacancies in the classified service of the City shall be filled and promotions in said service made according to city ordinance, the rules of the Civil Service Commission and the Civil Service Laws of the State of Illinois for Cities as modified herein. Vacancies shall be filled from the following sources, in order from first to last, unless superseded by express agreement between the parties: 1. reinstatement registers (other than for those seeking reinstatement after resignation), 2. employees' transfer requests (per Section 9 of this Article), 3. employees' responses to transfer opportunities, 4. promotional registers, 5. reinstatement registers for those seeking reinstatement after resignation, and 6. eligible (entry level) registers. On the reinstatement registers, the group of employees or any employee reduced in rank, re- moved from the classified service, or furloughed without pay shall rank above the group of people or any person seeking reinstatement after a leave of absence from the classified service. Among a particular group of people seeking reinstatement for the same reason, order on the reinstate- ment register shall be determined on the basis of seniority. 15
