A bump is a reassignment of jobs on the basis of seniority in unionised organisations in the private or public sector typically outlined in the conditions of employment contracts or collective bargaining agreements. This may include employees with greater seniority displacing employees with less seniority during layoffs, or more routine procedures of how work shifts and vacation dates are allocated.
