and would result in less security
for him, rather than more.
IL. What if man is called back
to work before he has used up
all of his weeks of guaranteed
wages?
When a worker, who has been
on a layoff, is recalled to work
before he has used all of his guar
anteed income weeks, he will be
entitled, in case he is laid Off
again, to the unused balance of
guaranteed weeks at the time OF
his recall, plus the number of
weeks of credit built up after he
came back to work.
Take, for example, a worker re-
called from a layoff after he had
received just 10 weeks of payments
out of So weeks guaranteed him
at the time he was laid off If he
were laid off again, he would be
entitled to income from the Plan
for AZ weeks, in addition to the
weeks he had built up after he
returned to work. In this example
it would require 20 weeks of work
for him to build his remaining az
weeks up to the SO weeks of pro-
lection
13. Why not restore the full So
week guarantee to workers re-
called after layoff?
The same reasons that make it
necessary to graduate the guaran-
tee for new workers require grad
uation for workers recalled after
layoff. If a worker, originally en-
titled to So weeks, had used up
his guarantee, the employer would
be reluctant to recall him if COM
PEELED to guarantee the same work
er 81 weeks Immediately upon his
recall.
Instead of recalling such work
ers, the employer would schedule
excessive overtime for workers re-
naming on the payroll or would
turn down orders to avoid heavy
potential guarantee liabilities.
Graduation of the guarantee
based on employment after recall
improves the possibility that laid
off workers will be recalled.
The company announced this
week that Mr.. Frank Johnson will
be in charge of all second shift in
spection operations and third shift
inspection operations up to mid

JAWS Guaranteed Employment
Plan Questions and Answers

II, WHY HOt guar dillee % WEEKS
of income as soon as a worker
acquires seniority?
If the employer had to accept
the obligation of guaranteeing So
weeks of income to each worker
as soon as he acquired seniority,
the employer would be reluctant
to hire new workers if he were
not sure he had full years work
for them. He might prefer to
schedule excessive overtime, or
even turn down orders. BY grad
uating the number of weeks a
worker can receive payments for
full-week layoffs in accordance
with the number of weeks work
er can receive payments for full
week layoffs in accordance with
the number Of weeks he has work
ed since acquiring seniority, the
plan removes an obstacle that
might otherwise reduce job oppor-
tunities for workers seeking jobs.
For the same reason, the dura-
tion of workers guarantee de-
pends on the number of weeks he
is employed after he acquires
seniority. He does not get credit
for the weeks he worked IS a pro-
bationary worker If he did get
such credit, then on the day he
acquired seniority the employer
would have to accept the obliga-
ton of guaranteeing him several
weeks of payments in the event of
a layoff. This would give the en-
ployer an incentive to seek ex-
cuses to terminate him near the
end of his probationary period,
