During a recent meeting at Step 2 of the Modified Article 15 procedures the question arose as to the language of Article 37.3, F 3, at page 122. The language states, Within 21 days after the end of the deferment period, the senior bidder then qualified shall be permanently assigned ..Does the "then" mean the employee must be qualified at the closing of the posting or can an employee quality during the deferment period (bid on position with same scheme different offdays and qualified during interim period) and be then eligible for the position? In addition to the above, would an employee be eligible to submit a 10-day letter (37.3.F.8.) under the above circumstances if they were not qualified at the closing of the posting and subsequently bid on another position?
