R 393.42 Return from leave of absence.

Rule 42. (1) A vending facility that a licensee left for a long-term leave of absence shall not be reserved for the same licensee upon reentry into the program. (2) To return to active status after a leave of absence, a licensee is responsible for meeting all program requirements added since the leave of absence commenced. (3) A licensee may reenter the program by bidding on any available locations as they become available for bid. (4) A licensee reentering the program bids as a licensee with the amount of seniority accrued at the time the leave of absence commenced, but does not gain additional seniority during the time of bidding. The last evaluation given to a licensee before taking a leave of absence shall be used in awarding a returning licensee a new vending facility. The leave of absence is not terminated until the licensee signs a vending facility agreement.
