Haywood Community College highly values the contribution of all employees and strives toward continuous employment.  The guiding principle in all decisions made under this policy will be the consideration of the needs of the population being served with respect to the mission and goals of the institution while minimizing the negative impact on the level and quality of services provided. Reduction in Force* (RIF) is the involuntary termination of two or more employees’ employment (contract) due to financial exigency, insufficient enrollment, program change, or major reorganization. The Board of Trustees of Haywood Community College directs the President to develop an appropriate procedure, which will be followed in the event circumstances require a Reduction in Force.
